Report Press Release:
September
26, 2012 – The fifth annual Right to Food and Nutrition Watch 2012,
released by a consortium of 15 civil society organizations, details the
structural causes underlying the hunger and malnutrition experienced by almost
one in seven people around the world.
The report focuses on exposing who is really in control of decision and
policy-making when it comes to food and nutrition. Among the concerns is a
trend of unregulated influence of corporate and financial actors over global
food and nutrition chains, as well as well-funded global public private
partnerships whose strategies place profits over people’s right to food.
