Ifpri/a4nh at the purdue global hunger colloquium: policy innovation is key to accelerating progress

Leading figures in the global fight against hunger gathered at Purdue University April 10-11 for a colloquium to exchange ideas on forging a new pathway towards eliminating world hunger and achieving the ideal of every person’s human right to a healthy, nutritious diet. Borrowing from Purdue graduate Neil Armstrong’s famous remark upon setting foot on the moon—“One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”—the theme was, “A giant leap forward toward ending global hunger.”
