Climate and food, how they are changing

Water is the source of life

Hidden Hunger

The volatility of food prices

Saturday, November 8 will address the complex issue of changing food prices in the global economy, a key factor in causing waves of food shortages.

The commitment of CESVI for the right to food

In its final post on Sunday November 9, CESVI will talk about the effort that continues to ensure access to food: the projects put into practice in developing countries in the fight against hunger and the information campaigns carried out in Italy to promote the right to food for all.
