“In a world overflowing with riches, it is a outrageous scandal that more than
852 million people suffer hunger and malnutrition and that
every year over 6 million children die of starvation and related causes.
We must take urgent action now.”

Jean Ziegler, April 2008

Jean Ziegler was the UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Food from 2000-2008. He is now a Member of the UN Human Rights Council’s Advisory Committee, where he works as an expert on economic, social and cultural rights, including the right to food.
