The
World Food Summit:
five years later, that was to be held from November 5 to 9, 2001, and
was postponed due to the September 11 attacks to the United States, will
finally be held from June 10 to 13, 2002, at the
FAO
headquarters in Rome.
Participants will review progress made towards the goal of the
1996
World Food Summit - to reduce the number of hungry people by half by
2015 - and consider ways to accelerate the process.
