Josette Sheeran, the head of the UN’s World Food Program, talks about why, in a world with enough food for everyone, people still go hungry, still die of starvation, still use food as a weapon of war. Her vision: “Food is one issue that cannot be solved person by person. We have to stand together.” (Recorded at TEDGlobal 2011, July 2011, in Edinburgh, Scotland).
This talk was tweeted by a work colleague who LOVES TED, and that is how I found it! I really identified with what Josette presented because of our work in Uganda. Her stories startled all sorts of emotions in me. But finally I landed on hope. I hope we all feel inspired and motivated to go the extra mile to stop world hunger!
