Since 1990, extreme poverty rates have been cut by 50%. But one in five people in developing regions still live on less than USD 1.90 a day.
It is time to rethink how we grow, share and consume our food if we are to nourish today’s 795 million hungry people.

Cities enable people to advance socially and economically, but some cities face congestion, a shortage of adequate housing and declining infrastructure.
Without technology and innovation, industrialization will not happen, and without industrialization, development will not happen.
- Reduce inequality everywhere
To reduce inequality, policies should be universal in paying attention to the needs of disadvantaged and marginalized populations.
