Between 2006 and 2008, global progress in combating world hunger stalled. World food prices increased by 71.4% and an additional 115 million people joined the ranks of the undernourished. This is a human tragedy which has fuelled political and economic turmoil across many countries. India has 28% of the world's hungry, and is an increasingly important economic and political partner to Australia. This research will involve a team of Australian researchers working with Indian counterparts to develop a framework that explains what causes risk and resilience to food insecurity, and offers practical insights for policy-makers.

2006年至2008年期间，全球在战胜世界饥饿方面的进展停滞不前。世界粮食价格上涨71.4%，新增1.15亿人陷入营养不良。这是一场人类悲剧，在许多国家引发了政治和经济动荡。印度拥有全球28%的饥饿人口，是澳大利亚日益重要的经济和政治伙伴。这项研究将由一组澳大利亚研究人员与印度同行合作，制定一个框架，解释粮食不安全风险和抵御能力的原因，并为决策者提供实际见解。
