The hunger in the world increases

The recent report on the state of food security and nutrition in the world elaborated by the specialized agencies of the United Nations has shown a remarkable increase of the undernourished people in the world, that has reached the quota of 821.000.000 of people; a fact that brings the question back to 2008 levels. In essence what has been recorded is a substantial deterioration in the living conditions of a large number of people and indicates an economic and political retreat incompatible with the progress achieved in some parts of the world, openly in contrast to different parts of Africa and South America. If the situation in Asia remains stable, which does not mean that there has been an improvement, the condition regarding the satisfaction of the most basic needs of human life has generally deteriorated. The social implications of this retreat mean that deep economic inequality remains a problem that goes beyond social justice, but invests the survival prospects of an ever greater number of people. If moral considerations are not to be confined to an autonomous dimension, which does not appear sufficient to a global discourse, the consequences of this problem must also be analyzed with a view to political repercussions, both within states suffering from the problem of food resources insufficient, both to the so-called first world, that is no longer only the western area, but also emerging powers such as China, Russia, Brazil and several Asian states. The shortage of foodstuffs, which can not guarantee survival, can only generate migratory movements that are much larger than the current ones and therefore capable of greater political consequences in the national and supranational systems that are the object of the movement of people. Rich states tend to thwart emigration but, for example, on the effects of climate, perhaps the major cause of malnutrition, do not do enough to help reduce global warming, just as they can not find suitable tools to prevent wars, which are another determining factor for food scarcity. Even on the lack of development of economies often rich in raw materials, but which fall into the countries of famine, there are no projects that can create a return to income for poor nations, but there is an intensive exploitation that enriches and favors society belonging to countries of the first world, thus creating a sort of continuation of colonialism, for which, among other things, there were not even the right reparations. Economic growth remains the big goal of the rich countries, but it is a fake datum, which does not take into account the difficulties, understood as costs, caused precisely by the lack of food at the global level and all that follows, even at the political level. where legislative decisions are slowed down or diverted from issues such as migration. Certainly with the current national political systems that proceed on their own particular interest, to the detriment of the general one, the question of world hunger can not find a definitive solution, but only, at best, partial and localized remedies to particularly dangerous contingent situations for rich countries. Despite this observation, the UN goal is to arrive at the final elimination of the problem of malnutrition by 2030. There are only twelve years to reach this goal, which could potentially be achieved even before, if the collaboration between the rich nations was effective and the coordination capacity of the UN became effective. What we intend to do to fight hunger in the world is to take continuous actions to ensure the supply of food, which must also be of a certain quality, through actions that invest the affected areas. However, these projects must ensure adequate water supply, another theme intimately connected with hunger, a transfer of knowledge in the field of food production, the assurance of universal access to food resources and adequate funding to achieve all this. It is not an impossible program if the safety conditions are guaranteed for the operators and the inhabitants and this theme invests the relations with the governments and between the states, until becoming the first determining factor for the achievement of the objective.
