The obsession with economic growth as a means to reduce poverty has led to privatize public services, to reduce corporate tax rates, to deregulate labour markets, and to tolerate aggressive tax avoidance by companies, depriving states from resources to combat poverty

To eradicate poverty, we need to move away from an exclusive focus on economic growth to a renewed commitment to wealth redistribution and to the fight against inequalities.

Crop breakthroughs are impressive but are answering the wrong questions - @guardian blog with Emile Frison @IPESfood

Modern agriculture cultivates climate change – we must nurture biodiversity

Crop-breeding innovations are merely a short-term solution for falling yields. Only agricultural diversity can ensure food security and resilience
