The report can be accessed as of 10.00 am on 16 October here.
“During the five-year period, we delivered food assistance in crisis situations and enhanced the food security and nutritional status of vulnerable people across the world… we also enabled small landholders to increase agricultural production and minimise the impact of rising food prices”.
UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon.
“Since 2008, the EU, UN and the international community have demonstrated their ability to collectively respond to food crises… our relationship combines policy vision and programmatic collaboration”.
European Commission President José Manuel Barroso.
“The EU and UN have a long-standing and unique cooperation. This year’s report illustrates one crucial aspect…the way in which we provide concrete help to improve food security”.
High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Catherine Ashton.
