Zusammenfassung:There is no greater blight on peoples integrity as a global community than continuing to ignore the constant hunger and the desperate poverty experienced every day by over a billion of their fellow human beings. The immense scale of raw hunger is particularly unacceptable in today's world of ever-growing wealth and prosperity. It is a tragedy of immense proportions and particularly unacceptable because they are growing richer all the time. The author wants to tell you a story about how they can change all that, and how it can be done in Africa by building upon the resourcefulness of African farmers who are engaged by the millions in creating a continent-wide evergreen agriculture. He wants to demonstrate how you in the spatial-data generation and utilisation community can get involved in this movement and make a sterling contribution to solving the problem of ending hunger in the foreseeable future.
