Similar to Global food crisis-a most devastating phenomena: causes, severity and outlook, impact upon nations with special reference to india and measures to control global food crisis.
Food is life and the global food sustainability is essential to human being survival. The global food system is highly
complex and is driven by various factors including environment, cultural, social and economic drive. It is vital to understand
these drivers and their interaction in order to help to improve the public food sustainability policies. Global polices and projects
desperately required in order improving the global food sustainability. Food sustainability is one of the unsolved global issues
and great commitment is required starting from global policy makers, national governments, and every individual home. This
research paper includes analysis and study of various elements such as global change science, policy, food crisis, factor affecting
and challenging food security, data on status and future projection and potential ways of solving problems. The goal of food
sustainability is to enable all people throughout the world to satisfy their basic needs and have a reasonable quality of life without
compromising the quality of life of future generations. Agriculture sustainability is the best solution which can feed the world
without compromising the environment or threatening human health. Scientific evidence that global environment has changed
is overwhelming and indisputable. These phenomena have a direct impact on agriculture which in turn affects food
sustainability. The food price is always toward upward trend which is validated by the periodic average global food price
monitoring report released by the Food and agricultural organizations. The factors affecting and challenging the food security
are many including increased food consumption due to population increase, uneven distribution, changes in living styles, limited
resources, environmental problems, economic problems and others. The potential ways to solve food sustainability need to be
established and implemented effectively across the world.

Presented by Timothy Robinson, William Wint, Giulia Conchedda, Giuseppina Cinardi, Thomas Van Boeckel, Michael Macleod, Bernard Bett, Delia Grace and Marius Gilbert at the annual conference of the British Society of Animal Science (BSAS), Chester, UK, 14-15 April 2015.
This presentation (delivered at a two-day course on governance of food systems) describes the main tensions and contradictions of the current food system. The industrial food system do not feed adequately all human beings, being the main driver of planetary destruction. The balance of power between different stakeholders in the system and how its affects hunger and obesity are analyzed. Challenges to the dominant paradigms are explained and political, legal and social options are presented, amongst those the alterntive worldview of food as a commons. This text emphasizes a political vision of a public asset we all dependent on: food.
The food price crises amplifies preexisting inequalities in food distribution and quality globally
Beyond temporary shocks, the food system is undergoing long-term changes that affect everyone, particularly the poor.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Food Crisis..??
Crisis
“A food
crisis
occurs
when
rates
of
hunger
and
malnutrition rise sharply at local, national, or global levels.
Timmer, C. (2010)
Food Security exists
When all people, at all times, have physical and economic access
to sufficient, safe and nutritious food to meet their dietary needs and food
preference for an active and healthy life.
(World Food Summit, Rome, 1996)
9. Cntd....
Most immediate are the urgent hunger needs in over 37 developing
countries, 20 of which are LDCs.
The global food crisis undermines one of the most fundamental human
rights – “The right to be free from hunger and malnutrition.”
The 3 billion people living on $2 or less spend between 50 - 80% on food.
– Food prices have increased by 83% in just three years.
The price increase has been observed particularly very sharp for
staple food crops.
In June-Sept, 2012,
» Price of maize increased by 50%
» That of wheat increased by 45%
» And price of soybean by 40%

“Rebellion of the Hungry”
From Mexico to Pakistan, food prices have doubled in three years
and have sparked riots in numerous countries.
Cameroon, Africa- a strike over high fuel prices changed to protest
about food prices, 20 people dead.
Egypt - at least 70 people killed, riots due to high price of bread.
11. Important Terms
Price Volatility: Volatility is a measure of price
variation from period (t − 1) to time period ‘t’.
R = Pt − P(t−1 )
Where, R - Price Volatility
Pt - Price variation at period ‘t’
P(t-1) - Price variation at period ‘t-1’

A diminishing supply of fish will put more pressure
on land based protein food sources and encourage

Japanese are consuming 10 times as much protein as
they did 50 years ago.
More and more people are shifting towards meat based

The shift in diets towards meat products, particularly in
China, and population growth in India and other
countries are also contributing to the surge in prices of
staple foods.
37. IMF
estimates
that
corn
ethanol
production in the US accounted for at
least ½ the rise in world’s corn
demand in past 3 years, as farmers
switched their farms to corn.
It takes 232Kg of corn to fill an average
50L car tank with ethanol.
Enough corn to feed a child for 1 year.!
46. Global warming

warming caused by emissions of
man-made
greenhouse
gases
such as carbon dioxide (CO2)
that
are
released
into
the
atmosphere by the burning of
fossil fuels such as oil, gas and
coal has resulted in a search for
so-called “green” fuels that can
power our vehicles (cars, trucks,
boats, and planes)
50. Professional speculators and hedge
funds are driving up the prices of
basic commodities in commodity
futures
These dealers are reported to be
shifting investments out of equities
and mortgage bonds and ploughing
them into food and raw materials.
52. The average American eats
1,800 lbs of food per year.
The average household throws
away 470 lbs.
According to FAO, 14% of the
food Americans buy is wasted.
127 million Americans are
overweighed
All while people in other
countries STARVE.
More than 800 million
people in the world are
malnourished
That’s one in every ten
children of the age five in
the world are underweight
53. IMPACT OF FOOD CRISIS
“For the middle class, it means cutting out medical
care.”
“For those on 90 Rs ($2) a day, it means cutting out
meat and taking children out of school.”
“For those on 45 Rs ($1) a day, it means cutting out
meat and vegetables and eating only cereal.”
“For those on 25 Rs (50 cents) a day, it means total
disaster.
54. Impact on the poor
Rising food prices affect the poor directly.
The poor generally spend large fractions of their budgets on food, so
rising prices make them more likely to reduce their food
consumption.
The short-term impacts are alarming: incomes fall by more than 25%
and food consumption by almost 20%.
Medium-term prospects remain bleak, with incomes and food
consumption down by 11% and 8% respectively.
55. Impact on farming
Higher food prices raise farmers incomes if global price
movements transmit to local markets.
Transmission can be mooted by policies on domestic prices
and by transport costs.
In response to price increases, wealthy farmers invested
more in productive assets, while poor farmers increased
their financial savings as well as consumption. Price spikes
relax liquidity constraints, which increases investments
among the richer while do so savings and consumptions
among the poor, possibly leading to diverging income
inequality in the long run.
56. Impact on low-income countries
Low-income countries face inflationary pressure and rising import
bills both of which undermine economic growth and development.
FAO estimates that food import bills for developing countries rose by
25% in 2007 (Shapouri and Rosen, 2008).
The World Food Programme (WFP) needing another $500 million
to sustain current operations, the likely outcome for these countries
is that food availability will fall.
Higher food prices are incentives to produce local food and could
stimulate agriculture
57. Response of countries due to GFC???
Kazakhstan, the world’s 6th largest wheat exporter, announced plans to
restrict exports of wheat fearing its citizens may go hungry.
China, the world’s biggest grain producer starts to curb overseas sales of
wheat, corn and rice
2010 onwards China started to import the equivalent of 40% of US corn
exports.
Vietnam, the world’s 3rd biggest rice exporter, restricts rice exports to slow
inflation.
Egypt bans rice exports.

60. How can we reduce the
impact of
Global Food Crisis..???
61. Future Prospects
Precautionary measures like
export bans and rationing in various
countries have exacerbated the price
increase
Higher food prices and greater attention to food now would certainly stimulate
production
There is scope to raise production through area expansion in Europe and
North America, and a productivity increase in developing Asia and Eastern
Europe.
The pressure to use grain for biofuel as an alternative to hydrocarbon energy
62. Preventing Future Crises
Loosen restrictions on exploiting domestic oil and natural gas
reserves.
Eliminate U.S. agricultural subsidies and price supports.
Promote the global elimination of agricultural subsidies.
Encourage the development and use of genetically modified crops by
eliminating trade barriers to such crops and products.
