Abstract

At its December session, the FAO Council recommended an important amendment to the first global goal of the organization, from diminishing hunger to its elimination, which reads as follows: ‘eradication of hunger, food insecurity and malnutrition, progressively ensuring a world in which all people at all times have sufficient safe and nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life’ [revised language in italics]. Expected to be endorsed by the FAO Conference at its forthcoming session in June 2013, this substantial policy change would represent a radical transformation of the current strategy in this regard, which less ambitiously aims to reduce the absolute number of undernourished people—in line with Millennium Development Goal 1 to halve the proportion of those who suffer from starvation by 2015—rather than aspiring to the complete eradication of hunger and malnutrition worldwide.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
