"Raw materials, wheat, have become a weapon for some states rather than a means to feed people," declares French Prime Minister François Bayrou at the official launch of the international "Nutrition for Growth" conference in Paris. He laments that "malnutrition is responsible for the death of nearly one in two children under the age of five" worldwide and emphasises that "solutions exist." Launched for the first time in London in 2012 on the sidelines of the Olympic Games, the summit aims to support mobilisation on an issue that is growing and yet accounts for less than 1% of development aid.
