One Billion Hungry Worldwide

EDM number 1984 in 2008-09, proposed by David Curry on 12/10/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Food and International development.

That this House draws attention to the plight of the 1.02 billion people worldwide who suffer from chronic hunger on a daily basis as the 28th UN World Food Day is marked; notes with regret that the economic crisis has pushed some 100 million more people into chronic hunger and poverty in 2009, and continues to do so; re-affirms the UK's commitment to Millennium Development Goal 1 to halve the proportion of people who suffer from chronic hunger by 2015; urges the UK to take a lead at the upcoming UN World Summit on Food Security; and welcomes the forthcoming publication of the report by the All Party Parliamentary Group on Agriculture and Food for Development on the UK's role in tackling global food insecurity.

This motion has been signed by a total of 116 MPs.
