About the World Hunger Series
The World Hunger Series (WHS) is a new Annual publication from the United Nations World Food Programme. It is aimed at policymakers in developing and developed countries, and attempts to fill an important gap in existing reports on hunger. While other reports monitor trends towards international goals or serve primarily as advocacy tools, the WHS will focus on practical strategies to end hunger. Each report in the new series will examine a key issue related to hunger – such as learning, health, markets, trade, crises and social exclusion. It will present state of the art thinking on that year's theme, combined with an analysis of the practical challenges to implementing solutions. Based on this analysis, it will identify realistic steps to address hunger. This inaugural edition of the report explores one of the most promising areas for achieving lasting improvements: the relationship between hunger and learning.
