| MDG 2 Achieve universal primary education
Education has long been acclaimed as a powerful engine for reducing hunger and poverty. Yet today, hunger and poverty not only persist, they stand in the way of the drive toward universal primary education because they contribute to poor health and compromise children’s abilities to learn. This paper explains the FAO involvement in programmes and activities that aim to reduce childhood malnutrition, improve the access of rural children to primary education, and provide education and skills training to youth and adults in rural areas. This paper is an useful tool for teachers, extensionists and policy makers. |
