In preparation of People's Health Assembly II - part 16 (2)
-----------------------------------------------------------
Thanks for this information on the Hunger Task Force. I agree
that it is a poor document. In addition to the observations in
this posting, the composition of the Task Force is striking and
disturbing. When I looked at this last, it appeared that several
(I think 7) members were either from multinational agribusiness
(including Monsanto) and other private sector corporations
and/or from the World Bank. Has anybody done a breakdown of the
Task Force's composition? We should write more about this.
