Sign the petition against hunger!

Submitted by admin on

Dear Colleagues,

Over one billion people live in chronic hunger... Every six seconds, a child dies of hunger...

By signing a new on-line petition to eradicate world hunger at https://www.1billionhungry.org/, you can actively lend your voice to a growing global movement, and send a powerful message to world leaders: that it is unacceptable that one billion people live in chronic hunger, and changing this reality should be our top priority.

Farming pays!

I am just back from dinner. I am literally alone on the ILRI campus here in Nairobi. I went to the Bar to have dinner. I was the only one to be present. As compensation I had a very interesting chat with the waiter, a young Kenyan student. He is studying Turism at Kenyatta University and he is just about to get his degree. He is financing his survival by working as a waiter at ILRI, but this would not be enough to pay also the University fees, which are 20,000 KSH/year (this is about 260 USD, but he mentioned 1000 USD) Whatsoever!
