2005 is the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the UN. Patricia Young, National Coordinator for World Food Day observed, "For many years food for all was dismissed as Utopian. But times are changing鈥� Concerned citizens on all sides of the issue are beginning to take a new look at the issue." Despite great agricultural and economic progress made in post-World War II period, more than 800 million people worldwide are chronically undernourished and lead stunted lives, many of them children.
