Time : 10:00 am
Event Details : Health per Acre - Organic Solutions to Hunger and Malnutrition In India.
Navdanya presents A Seminar on 'The Food System Crisis and How We Can Solve It'.
Every FOURTH person is hungry • Every THIRD woman is severely malnourished • Every SECOND child is “wasted” (source: Navdanya, “Why is Every 4th Indian Hungry?”)
The Government is trying to put together a Food Security Act.
However, this Act has two serious limitations:
· It leaves out NUTRITION
On one hand, obesity, and on the other, hunger, are creating a Public Health crisis
· It leaves out AGRICULTURE
Food producers are neglected in a push to increase chemical -, capital - and water - intensive farming
JOIN THE MOVEMENT TOWARDS ECOLOGICAL FOOD SYSTEMS THAT PROTECT PRODUCERS AND CONSUMERS.
BE A PART OF THE CHANGE.
