More DescriptionThis volume highlights progress during the 1990s on the problems of food shortage, poverty-related hunger, maternal-child nutrition and health, and micronutrient malnutrition. It is constructed from papers and discussions presented at the five-year-follow-up to the Bellagio Declaration, "Overcoming Hunger in the 1990s" (1989). Individual essays by hunger researchers, monitors and policy makers assess advances in achieving the Bellagio goals, which are: to end famine deaths, especially by moving food into zones of armed conflict; to end hunger in half the world's poorest households; and to eliminate at least half the hunger of women and children by expanding maternal-child health care coverage; and to eliminate vitamin A and iodine deficiencies as public health problems.
