Still nothing from ‘lead Heads’ on CARICOM food security undertaking
FAO Analytics, the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) body responsible for collecting, collating, analyzing, and disseminating food and agriculture statistics says that hunger in the Caribbean and Latin America is decreasing, simultaneously asserting that Brazil is leading the race to reduce food insecurity in the hemisphere. This analysis was based on the findings of the State of Food and Nutrition Security in the World (SOFI 2024) report.
The SOFI 2024 Report comes against the backdrop of a near news blackout on the Caribbean food security initiative assessment undertaken more than a year ago and out of which is still to come a report from the prime movers behind the undertaking, Guyana’s President Irfaan Ali and Barbados Prime Minister Mia Mottley.
