There is wide consensus that governments need to act on food insecurity through income-based interventions. 2, record 1, English, - food%20insecurity

La FAO [Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Agricultura y la Alimentación] ha introducido en el informe de este año referente al estado de la inseguridad alimentaria en el mundo un nuevo instrumento para ponderar esa necesidad: la magnitud del hambre. Se trata de una medida del déficit de alimentos por persona de la población subnutrida de los países. Expresada en kilocalorías, tiene como objetivo evaluar la falta diaria de alimentos de las personas. 1, record 1, Spanish, - inseguridad%20alimentaria
