The challenge of hunger: Taming price spikes and excessive food price volatility.” International Food Policy Research Institute, Concern World Wide, Detsche Welthugerhilfe e.v. Washington D. C., Dublin, Bonn.

Of course, the absolute number of hungry people remains unacceptably high as well. This is the sixth year that IFPRI has calculated the Global Hunger Index and analyzed this multidimensional measure of global hunger.
