We don't need to cure hunger - we know how to solve hunger - it's food, it's nutrition, and it's really a question of access.
I have a dream to provide every Chinese, especially children, sufficient milk each day.
If, at the end of my mandate, all Brazilians have the possibility to eat breakfast, lunch and dinner, I will have fulfilled the mission of my life.
Food insecurity is not remotely the same as hunger.
I simply believe that food is a human right.
A safe and nutritionally adequate diet is a basic individual right and an essential condition for sustainable development, especially in developing countries.
The food system is a very complex beast. There are people who are going to get their food at Wal-Mart or at Safeway; they're not going to the farmers' market. Those people need choices too.
People are hungry not because there aren't enough farmers or food, but because they don't have access to it or can't afford it.
Basic human needs like food cannot be corporate questions.
Pudding is not a human right.
We have not reached the consensus that to eat is a basic human right. This is an ethical crisis. This is a crisis of faith.
Food is available, but it cannot be shipped into an area, so the people in that area suffer the consequences.
Food is such a basic need, and it is unfathomable to me that people still do not have adequate access.
Every nation must concern themselves with ensuring its population has sufficient and stable access to food - ours is no exception. Nor can we afford to ignore other nations' concerns about access to food.
Food is the very heart of freedom. How can people be free if they can't feed themselves without getting sued for patent violations?
