FEEDING THE WORLD, A MULTI-DIMENSIONAL PUBLIC-POLICY CHALLENGE

Feeding the world is a multi-dimensional policy challenge. Despite the fact that the amount of food available at the global scale exceeded the daily intake requirement for a working man in 1981, and has constantly increased since then, 805 million people were still suffering chronic hunger and malnutrition in 2013, most of them in developing countries (FAO, 2014). At the same time, 1300 million people suffer from obesity, both in developing and developed countries (WHO, 2012). Additionally, the dominant way in which food is produced has been confronted with both social and environmental crises worldwide which call for renewed production models.
