As the world approaches the 2015 deadline for achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), which include a goal of reducing the proportion of hungry people by half, the 2010 Global Hunger Index (GHI) offers a useful multidimensional overview of global hunger.

Der als Printausgabe vergriffene Trescher-Reiseführer UKRAINE aus dem Jahr 2011 stellt das gesamte Land ausführlich vor.

Alle Regionen des Landes werden mit ihren Sehenswürdigkeiten ausführlich beschrieben. Reisen in die Ukraine sind aktuell natürlich nicht möglich.

If African countries are to realise their long-term potential, the report says, they must boost agricultural productivity to both improve the availability of food and reduce poverty. Policies to enhance nutrition are central to ensuring that access to food translates into human development. The report argues further that local populations must have the resources and decision-making power to produce and consume nutritious food throughout the year, overcoming the risks represented by continuing conflict, climate change and variations in food prices.
