Full textThe problem of food insecurity among students in higher education, specifically students who belong to historically marginalized populations, is a serious national problem that is under researched. While data are not being collected universally, higher education institutions are beginning to report on this issue. Research reflects that 1 in 5 California State University students is experiencing chronic food insecurity and 1 in 10 is reporting experiences of homelessness. Higher education colleges are beginning to address this problem by casting a net of resources like food pantries, meal donations on student cards from other students, emergency funds through grants, CalFresh outreach and enrollment (federally funded program known as Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program), and other campus-unique programming to serve hard-to-reach, vulnerable students. This study explores such services at a public California State University-Hispanic Serving Institution with the goal of understanding students’ lived experiences related to accessibility of food programming and resources in higher education. By exploring the perceptions of four students that are female who were food insecure related to their utilization of food programs directed at ensuring student food security, this study intends: (1) to explore students’ satisfaction with campus food programming, (2) to describe the participants’ knowledge of campus food programs and healthy food options, and (3) to explore the relationship between food programming and policies and the lived experiences of students. This study is important because oftentimes research is missing the unheard voices of students. By embracing students’ stories, researchers can learn of their real-life experiences. This allows for a greater understanding of the significance of food insecurity and its impact on students using food programs in higher education settings.

Full textThis paper seeks to answer the following question: how can municipalities manage and regulate markets in a manner that facilitates access to food and contributes to the enhancement of food security? In attempting to answer this question, the paper will also address the following questions: what does the term 'food security' mean? What does 'access to food' mean? What does the 'right to food' mean? What are the powers and functions of local government? What are the limits, problems or risks attached to the exercise of these powers? What constitutes 'markets' or 'fresh produce markets' in this case? What is the scope of local government's legislative and executive competence regarding food 'markets', as enumerated in Part B of Schedule 5 of the Constitution? And, how can municipalities utilise food markets as a means to facilitate access to food and address the issue of food security? This paper will focus primarily on fresh produce markets, as opposed to other markets or 'markets' in their entirety. This limitation is based on the argument that fresh produce markets are more relevant for the role of local government in facilitating access to food because they provide a platform for the sale and purchase of fresh produce, which is important for nutritional purposes. The argument presented in this thesis centres around the facilitation of access to food, by local government, through the regulation and management of markets. The paper will address the problem by examining the concepts of 'food security' and 'access to food' in the South African context, as well as in the international context. In examining the above concepts, the paper will also include the right to food. The paper will further look at how South Africa has responded to the issue of food security through its national food security policies. The paper will look at how local food markets are utilised internationally to facilitate access to food and thereafter, examine how food markets should be utilised to facilitate access to food in South Africa. Thereafter, an examination of the powers and functions of local government as entrenched in the Constitution will be provided, as well as the implications of such powers, the limitations and the problems attached to the exercise of local government powers. Lastly, the paper looks at local government's competence regarding food 'markets' in Schedule 5B of the Constitution, as well as the other competencies related to food/food security. Although local government has the scope to address the issue of food security by exercising its legislative and executive authority over the competence ‘markets’ as per Schedule 5B of the Constitution, this study does not focus solely on the management and regulation of 'markets'. The study extends and includes related competencies such as trade regulations, the licensing and control of undertakings that sell food to the public, municipal abattoirs, street trading and municipal health service, and shows how the links between these competencies provide local government with the opportunity to contribute to the enhancement of food security.

Full textDrawing on a neo-Gramscian conception of global civil society as a sphere where world order is ideologically sustained and contested, this paper examines the extent to which the idea of a human right to food serves to challenge neoliberal globalization or is incorporated into its ideational underpinnings. Through a focus on the negotiations of a set of Voluntary Guidelines to Support the Progressive Realization of the Right to Adequate Food in the Context of National Food Security, a discursive struggle over the meaning of the "right to food" is analyzed. On the one hand, the articulation of food as a fundamental right politicizes the "problem" of hunger, casts critical light on the global restructuring of production and subjects the market to the primacy of human rights. On the other hand, the "right to food" as negotiated in the Guidelines process – with its human rights content largely suppressed, recast as a policy goal and molded into a policy approach – is neutralized as a challenge and brought into conformity with the neoliberal project of globalization. Relating these findings back to the force field of contesting globalization from below and co-opting such resistance from above, this study ends with reflections on the limits and possibilities of human rights discourse as part of a counter-hegemonic strategy.

Full textMany of the disadvantaged groups which are impacted by a high burden of poverty and are thereby food insecure in South Africa, have over the years received attention from the government, resulting in many interventionist schemes to guarantee their right to food. These include for instance, social grants for children, the disabled and the elderly, as well as school meals for primary and high school students. Unfortunately, one of such groups has hitherto received little or no attention -that is, students in South African tertiary institutions. Food insecurity among students in tertiary institutions links back to the trajectory of poverty- students in tertiary institutions are food insecure mainly because they come from homes which are food insecure. This is proven in the disparity between the numbers and severity of food insecure students in historically advantaged universities and historically disadvantaged universities in South Africa.

Full textThis study aim to protect the rights to health and adequate food of the population with food allergy, estimated at about 8% of children and 3% to 5% of adults, arguing there is a need for the provision of information about allergens on product labels, as well as along consumers service assistance (such as electronic websites and phone numbers). It is pointed the interrelationship between the right to health and right to life as well as that between the right to health and the right to adequate food, rights whose effective protection depend on the consumers access to information. The relevance of the topic regarding the right to information about the presence of allergens and feasibility of the proposal of the obligation of allergens labeling are demonstrated through the analysis of existing standards relating to food labeling in Brazil, as well as which treatment given to the issue of labeling of allergens in comparative law. Finally, on the premise that people with food hypersensitivity need to maintain a diet that excludes the presence of allergens, as a way to ensure their well-being and their life with dignity, it is pointed to the State's responsibility to protect the rights to health and to adequate food of this portion of the Brazilian population, with the regulating of the duty of providing information about the presence (or absence) of such substances in food available for consumption for part of the food industry, although this presence give up unintentionally (traces), which depends on compliance with good manufacturing practices for food products and careful risk assessment
Este trabalho objetiva tutelar os direitos à saúde e à alimentação adequada da população com alergia alimentar, estimada em cerca de 8% das crianças e entre 3% e 5% dos adultos, sustentando a necessidade de que haja a disponibilização de informações a respeito de substâncias alérgenas nos rótulos dos produtos, assim como junto aos canais de atendimento ao consumidor (como sítios eletrônicos e telefones). Como fundamentação, aponta para a inter-relação existente entre o direito à saúde e o direito à vida, assim como aquela existente entre o direito à saúde e o direito à alimentação adequada, direitos cuja tutela efetiva dependem do acesso à informação por parte dos consumidores. A relevância do tema, atinente ao direito à informação quanto à presença de alérgenos e a viabilidade da proposta de rotulagem obrigatória, é demonstrada a partir da análise das atuais normas relacionadas à rotulagem de alimentos no Brasil, assim como qual o tratamento conferido ao tema da rotulagem de alérgenos no direito comparado. Por fim, partindo da premissa de que as pessoas com hipersensibilidade alimentar necessitam manter uma dieta que exclua a presença de alérgenos, como forma de se garantir o seu bem-estar e sua existência digna, aponta-se a responsabilidade do Estado em proteger os direitos à saúde e à alimentação adequada desta parcela da população brasileira, através da regulamentação do dever de disponibilização de informações quanto à presença (ou ausência) de tais substâncias nos alimentos disponibilizados ao consumo por parte das indústrias alimentícias, ainda que tal presença se dê de forma involuntária (traços), o que depende da observância de boas práticas de produção de produtos destinados à alimentação e criteriosa avaliação de riscos

Full textThe present work is focused on the relationship between the human right to food, sustainability and the conflicts arising from the realization of this right in current food systems. We seek to understand which aspects are being considered in the specification of this right and how sustainability would be an ethical value and an inherent principle of the human right to food. We propose the following questions as a guide to the research: What is human right to food? What is sustainability? Sustainability is an inherent aspect of the human right to food? Does it occur in the current models of production and consumption? What are the conflicts and impediments to the completion of the human right to food through the prism of sustainability? The methodological approach includes the analysis of the case of production and consumption of genetically modified (GM) foods in contrast with the assumptions adopted in this work. The production model of GM foods is analyzed against the alternative model of agroecology in order to compare the presence of sustainability aspects in both systems. We discuss the role of the consumer as an agent capable of promoting sustainability of food systems, as well as the economic difficulties to exhert this role. From this analysis, we found the existence of public-private conflicts emerging from realization of the human right to food when looking through the prism of sustainability. Before such obstacles, we present mechanisms of enforceability and justiciability of the human right to food. We seek to transversely address themes such as solidarity, ethics in science and in capitalism, and education as challenges to be conquered in order to achieve the full realization of the human right to food from the perspective of sustainability.

Incluso con los crecientes cambios tecnológicos, económicos y sociales que se han producido en los últimos siglos, todavía hay una creencia generalizada de que los productos agroquímicos consisten única solución para eliminar los seres humanos desde el gran peligro del hambre en el mundo. Sin embargo, aunque el uso masivo de pesticidas en realidad ha contribuido al aumento de la producción agrícola, hay varias consecuencias contrarias que resultan de este modelo impuesto, ya que su uso indiscriminado provoca daño ambiental incalculable a la salud humana y toda la biosfera . Parte de este daño es permanente e irreversible, y que además no se conoce totalmente y escalable, también relacionado con el uso excesivo de semillas modificadas genéticamente, que imponen otras pérdidas como la extirpación de las semillas nativas a través de la cada vez mayor de los monocultivos de exportación. Proceso, por lo tanto, está promoviendo una erosión de la cadena, levantando su conexión con la pérdida del conocimiento de siglos de antigüedad directamente relacionada con las prácticas agrícolas tradicionales relacionados con la raza y el origen étnico, lo que resulta en detrimento del ejercicio de la facultad diligente de estado soberano. Por lo tanto, se presenta el problema básico de esta investigación, el posible control de la vida humana desde la lógica impuesta por este mercado. Teniendo en cuenta que las tecnologías empleadas para la producción agrícola actual están permitiendo el control del mercado a través de la dependencia que crea estos productos químicos y la eliminación de las semillas nativas, de ahí la diversidad de los cultivos. Para eso para su afrontamiento, es el crecimiento de emergencia clara y la propagación de los ideales vinculados a militantes actuales de la justicia ambiental, involucrando a todos los aspectos de la garantía de los derechos humanos, como el derecho a una alimentación adecuada, lo que aumentará la una frente a la creciente comida sana, libre de productos químicos y tecnologías de modificación genética a gran escala. Esto implica no sólo un cambio conceptual, meramente descriptivo, sino en un cambio de política ideológica en la naturaleza misma, en una ruptura paradigmática, antes del fallo y la ineficiencia del modelo de mercado actual con más fuerza impuesta a las economías subdesarrolladas, dirigido a criterios cuantitativos el crecimiento económico.

Full textThis dissertation traces an historical evolution of Human Right to Food and Food Security concepts and how the international institutions, and Brazil itself deal with it, focusing on the state of Goiás. The research issues are focused primarily on verifying the existence and effectiveness mechanisms to ensure Food Security and Nutrition and ensure the Human Right to adequate food in Brazil.The work has the overall goal to approach the problem of hunger in Brazil facing the dispositions of national and international legal systems, performing a contemporary approach to the concept of human rights, the historical evolution of the Human Right to Food in the national and international level and the political decisions adopted by Brazil and the State of Goiás to overcome this problem of international reach. It also verify if the Bolsa Família Program, as a public policy to eradicate hunger and extreme poverty, has been effective for the purposes for which it is proposed, general wide in Brazil and specifically in Goiás. In 2012, 11,8 million people were hungry in Brazil, therefore effective public policy to eradicate hunger is very important to poor people so they can get access to food. The research concludes that public subsidies policies as the way they are implemented in Brazil, like Bolsa Família , are effective to reduce immediate poverty and hunger, nevertheless are not very efficient to give autonomy to the beneficiaries families.
A presente dissertação traça uma evolução histórica dos conceitos de Direito Humano à Alimentação Adequada e Segurança Alimenta. Discute-se, ainda, o enfrentamento da questão por organismos internacionais, pelo Brasil, com foco no Estado de Goiás. O problema da pesquisa está voltado principalmente para a verificação da existência e eficácia de mecanismos para garantir a Segurança Alimentar e Nutricional e assegurar o Direito Humano à Alimentação Adequada no Brasil. O trabalho aborda, também, a fome sob o prisma das disposições dos sistemas jurídicos nacional e internacional, abordando o conceito contemporâneo de direitos humanos, a evolução histórica do Direito Humano à Alimentação Adequada e as decisões políticas adotadas pelo Brasil e pelo Estado de Goiás. Trata-se, ainda, do Programa Bolsa Família, como política pública para erradicação da fome e da miséria e se o programa tem sido eficaz para os fins que se propõe no Brasil e em Goiás. O Direito Humano à Alimentação Adequada e a Segurança Alimentar são assegurados pelo Regime Internacional de Direitos Humanos e vêm fazendo parte da agenda de vários países nos últimos anos, como Estados Unidos, Suíça, México, Brasil, dentre outros. Em 2012, 11,8 milhões de pessoas passaram fome no Brasil, portanto a adoção de políticas públicas eficazes para erradicação da fome é de extrema importância para que famílias possam sair da extrema pobreza. Conclui-se que os programas de distribuição de renda, como o Bolsa Família, da forma que foram implantados, são eficazes para redução imediata da pobreza e da fome, porém não são eficientes para o alcance de autonomia das famílias beneficiárias.

Full textINTRODUCTION: The National School Feeding Program (PNAE) is the supplementary public policy with greater longevity and comprehensiveness of Brazil in the area of Food and Nutrition Security. In 2009, the publication of Law no. 11.947 brought important advances to the PNAE and determined that 30 per cent of the funds from the National Education Development Fund (FNDE) must be invested in the acquisition of direct products of Family Agriculture. In the city of São Paulo, the School Feeding Program (PAE) is implemented by the School Feeding Coordination, which has encountered great difficulties in achieving the goal established by the FNDE. The implantation process of food acquisition from Family Agriculture appears complex and, in many cases, slow. OBJECTIVES: Here, we aim to describe and analyze factors interfering in the process of purchasing food from Family Agriculture by PAE in SP between 2009 and 2016. METHODOLOGY: This work was developed using descriptive qualitative research methodology. Municipal Department of Education documents were used to collect the information. In addition, some municipal managers were interviewed. A semi-structured script was applied for the interview. Qualitative research tools were used to map, describe and analyze the context, relationships and perceptions regarding the purchase of food direct from Family Agriculture. RESULTS: Among the main difficulties encountered for the implementation of public policy are: the suspension of the bidding by TCM; the understanding of how the process would take place; Institutional bureaucracy and price research. Between 2012 and 2016 the percentage contracted was 1 per cent , 7 per cent , 17 per cent , 27 per cent and 22 per cent , respectively. The amount invested was approximately R$ 62 million and benefited 3,7 thousand of family farmers. CONCLUSION: The purchases of family agriculture have evolved, but there are still many challenges to be overcome, both for managers - reducing bureaucracy in the purchasing process and for farmers - supply and logistics issues, especially in a metropolis with schools distributed in areas far from agricultural production

Full textPrimary health care (PHC) is a potential setting within health sector to deal with Food and Nutrition Security (FNS). In this context, it is possible to act for the identification as well as for promotion of FNS. FNS is not a static concept. Its meaning is modified according to the interests of the one who uses it. The adoption of the notion of the right to adequate food (RAF) to approach FNS is one of the possibilities to understand, search and act towards this theme. Therefore, the present study aimed to understand the practices of FNS in PHC from the point of view of the RAF. For this, an essay was developed to formulate, at the practical level, alternatives to how PHC can strengthen the RAF. A scoping review was also carried out, in order to map the theoretical bases that support this production and to describe how the RAF framework is incorporated. Using elements of the right to health (availability, accessibility, acceptability and quality) alternatives have been provided for the respect, protection and fulfillment of the RAF. The essay highlights the potential of practices towards FNS at PHC through an emancipatory perspective of human rights. In addition, the scoping review indicate that human rights are scarcely present in the scientific production on SAN practices in PHC. The notion of Food and Nutrition Insecurity (FNI) as a risk factor for health predominates, and the theoretical frameworks of social determinants of health and human rights are minorities. Scientific production incorporates few elements of the AF, notably the thought style of FNI as a risk factor for health and the FNS as a social determinant of health. There is greater homogeneity and conceptual complexity to define FNS within the thought style of FNS as a human right. The present study strengthens the understanding of FNS in the PHC from the perspective of the RAF.

The National School Nutrition Programme (PNAE) has existed for over 50 years in Brazil, its goal is to contribute to the growth and biopsychosocial development, learning, school performance and training healthy eating habits of students. Throughout its existence, the PNAE has undergone changes in its operation. One of these changes occurred in 2009 with the mandatory inclusion of local produce, family farming and / or their organizations in school meals. Therefore, we intend to analyze the dynamics of supply foodstuff Family Farming for the School Feeding Program in Araripe-Ceará. This is a case study, conducted through semi-structured interviews and observation spot with journaling field. Study participants were fourteen farmers suppliers of food to schools, three Presidents of Associations of Family Farmers, the nutritionist responsible for technical School Feeding Program, the Technical EMATER (organization representing family farmers) the local coordinator of purchases family farming for school feeding and school principal selected. To examine the issues used the thematic content analysis, following these phases Pre-analysis, exploration of the material in order to reach the core of understanding the text, to achieve the thematic categories. Finally, the interpretation of statements, where the distribution took place in two categories (difficulties and benefits in view of farmers) and the reflections that arose around those occurring later interpretation and discussion of the theoretical light. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Health Science Center, Federal University of Paraíba, under protocol # 0339/11. It was observed that among the difficulties pointed out by farmers among the most frequent words were Payment, Transport and Physical Structure. As for the benefit, Job Opportunity and guaranteed income. Thus, it is clear that analyzing the dynamics of supply of products of family farming for school feeding is of great value, since it is a recent resolution and that municipalities are still adjusting to this new system. Some alternatives were created locally to facilitate and encourage the supply of farmers and ensure that food reaches the schools. Among them, there is the creation of a schedule for delivery of agricultural family; different menus for schools located in rural and urban areas that receive products from family farms, installation of processed food factories since this city suffers with the dry weather most of the year and it is necessary that other products entering the school feeding; incentive associations by the municipal administration, adding, in this way, value to the final product; partnerships with SEBRAE, EMATER to empower farmers. It is noticed that the specifications determined by law and resolutions of bodies often turn away from the reality of the municipalities. It is necessary to create the means to effect this process locally so that students and farmers are met satisfactorily through this relationship school meals and family farming.
O Programa Nacional de Alimentação Escolar (PNAE) existe há mais de 50 anos no Brasil, seu objetivo é contribuir para o crescimento e o desenvolvimento biopsicossocial, a aprendizagem, o rendimento escolar e a formação de práticas alimentares saudáveis dos alunos. Ao longo de sua existência, o PNAE tem passado por modificações em sua operacionalização. Uma dessas modificações ocorreu em 2009, com a obrigatoriedade da inserção de produtos locais, da agricultura familiar e/ou de suas organizações, na alimentação escolar. Diante disso, pretende-se analisar a dinâmica de abastecimento dos gêneros alimentícios da Agricultura Familiar para o Programa de Alimentação Escolar em Araripe- Ceará. Trata-se de um estudo de caso, realizado por meio de entrevista semiestruturada e observação in loco com registro em diário de campo. Os participantes do estudo foram catorze agricultores familiares fornecedores de gêneros alimentícios para as escolas, três presidentes de Associações de Agricultores Familiares, a Nutricionista responsável técnica pelo Programa de Alimentação Escolar, o Técnico da EMATER (entidade representativa dos agricultores familiares) a coordenadora local das compras da agricultura familiar para a alimentação escolar e uma diretora da escola selecionada. Para analisar as questões utilizou-se a análise de conteúdo temática, seguindo as seguintes fases Pré-análise, Exploração do material visando alcançar o núcleo de compreensão do texto, para se alcançar as categorias temáticas. Por fim, a Interpretação dos depoimentos, onde realizou-se a distribuição de duas categorias (dificuldades e benefícios na visão dos agricultores) e as reflexões que surgiram em torno dessas, ocorrendo, posteriormente a interpretação e discussão a luz do referencial teórico. O estudo foi aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética do Centro de Ciência da Saúde da Universidade Federal da Paraíba, sob o protocolo nº 0339/11. Observou-se que entre as dificuldades apontadas pelos agricultores familiares as mais recorrentes entre as falas estavam Pagamento, Transporte e Estrutura física. Quanto ao benefício, Oportunidade de trabalho e renda garantida. Dessa forma, percebe-se que analisar a dinâmica de abastecimento de produtos da agricultura familiar para a alimentação escolar é de grande valia, uma vez que é uma resolução recente e que os municípios ainda estão se adequando a esse novo sistema. Algumas alternativas foram criadas localmente para facilitar e incentivar as entregas dos agricultores e garantir que os alimentos cheguem nas escolas. Dentre elas, destaca-se a criação de um cronograma de entrega dos produtos da agricultura familiar; cardápios diferenciados para as escolas situadas na zona rural e urbana que recebem produtos da agricultura familiar; instalação de fábricas de alimentos processado, uma vez que esse município sofre com o clima seco na maior parte do ano e se faz necessário que outros produtos entrem na alimentação escolar; incentivo ao associativismo pela administração municipal, agregando, dessa maneira, valor ao produto final; parcerias com o SEBRAE, EMATER para capacitar agricultores. Percebe-se que as especificações determinadas em Lei e Resoluções dos órgãos competentes muitas vezes afastam-se da realidade dos municípios. É necessário que se crie meios para efetivar esse processo localmente para que alunos e agricultores sejam atingidos de forma satisfatória através dessa relação alimentação escolar e agricultura familiar.

Full textIntroduction: Recognizing the human right to adequate and healthy food, and the inadequacy of current dietary patterns in Brazil, this project situates family farming in opposition to the predominant agri-food model and emphasizes the dual potential of the National School Feeding Programme (PNAE) and the Food Acquisition Programme (PAA). Objective: Comprehend the contributions of PNAE and PAA to strengthen family farming and to promote the human right to adequate and healthy food. Method: Comprehensive study was carried out on both programs with quantitative-qualitative approach. The first stage included the systematization of data from each Program in the state of São Paulo, based on data provided by PAA-Data and SISPAA and, in the case of PNAE, part of the data collected in the scope of the research \"The meeting between the National Program Of School Feeding (PNAE) and Family Agriculture\". The second stage focused Guarulhos experience of implementation on both Programmes, including visits to cultivation areas and receiving units, and semi-structured interviews with public managers, family farmers and cooks based on scripts with guiding questions. Results: The government purchases made by the PAA-CDS and the PNAE have allowed to reach a good part of the expected purposes of both Programmes, fulfilling a relevant role both from the perspective of the agricultural policy, and to overcome the food and nutritional insecurity, although with significant differences between the two Programmes and ongoing challenges. The results reinforce the heterogeneity of family agriculture and suggest different profiles of family farmers who access each Program in the state of São Paulo. Both Programmes commercialize predominantly in natura or minimally processed foods, favoring the access to healthy food.

O amplo crescimento do liberalismo econômico e necessário tem de realçar o homem como centro das coisas, concretizando sua dignidade humana através do humanismo integral. O incentivo do amor ao próximo e a exaltação da fraternidade, ao comporem as relações legislativas e sociais resultam, então, na preservação e promoção da saúde do homem. O reforço da tese da fraternidade ocorre quando da clara identificação da responsabilidade do Estado, da comunidade, da sociedade, de todos na preservação dos direitos fundamentais do homem, no incentivo à essencialidade da informação, no exercício e promoção do direito à segurança alimentar, na possibilidade de se promover a consciência e o crescente conhecimento do desenvolvimento de produtos alimentícios dos mais diversos.

Full textToday’s world food situation is particularly disturbing. To guarantee food security for all remains the primary responsibility of governments and international society. As one of the major instruments to implement international strategy for food security, international law has failed to provide effective solution to mitigate the factors that contribute to food insecurity. This is particularly what happened when food problem was treated within WTO. Having established the terms and conditions of international trade in food and agricultural products, WTO trade regulations have major influence on food security both at international level and at national level. Even if the relevant WTO agreements did offer certain policy approaches to its Members to tackle their food problem, these policy approaches are neither sufficient nor efficient to achieve this goal. By constantly prioritizing commercial considerations over food concerns, WTO rules related to trade in agriculture seriously restrict the exercise of discretionary power of those Members who wish to improve their food situation. Therefore, international trade policies must be reformed, so that WTO Members can take creative measures to meet their people’s basic needs. Even it appears still difficult at present to create new rules that may allow food-deficit Members to generate sufficient income to guarantee their access to food; this reform must at least search for effective solutions to offset the negative impacts of trade policies on food security. Otherwise, the legitimacy and credibility of current global trading system will be at risk
