On Monday, November 22, 2010, Bread for the World Institute released its 2011 Hunger Report, “Our Common Interest: Ending Hunger and Malnutrition.”
The report details the current response to the 2007-2008 food and fuel crises and makes recommendations for reducing hunger and malnutrition. Some of these recommendations include: embracing a comprehensive approach that empowers women, emphasizes nutrition, and focuses on smallholder farmers; having the U.S. government adopt operational standards for country-led development; and having Congress rewrite the 1961 Foreign Assistance Act.
