Oxfam calls for radical rethink of world food system

International aid group Oxfam has released a report on hunger around the world that paints a bleak picture of the global food supply and calls for a restructuring of a “broken” food system, which has resulted in almost one billion people going hungry.
On June 1, Oxfam launched its global GROW campaign, which aims to lobby world leaders to change policies around food subsidies, promote sustainable agricultural methods and strengthen regulations on speculation in the international food market. The campaign also aims to make consumers in rich countries aware of the consequences of their habits on the world’s poor and the environment.
