Ending hunger, increasing incomes, and protecting the climate: what would it cost donors?

Abstract

This report assesses the additional financial resources needed from donors and from low- and middle-income countries to simultaneously end hunger, double the incomes of small-scale producers, and ensure that greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture comply with the Paris Agreement. It concludes that donors would need to contribute an additional $14 billion per year from 2020 to 2030, twice their current aid for food security and nutrition. An extra $19 billion per year from low- and middle-income countries would also be needed. These contributions could prevent 490 million people from experiencing hunger and improve the incomes of 545 million small-scale producers. – AI-generated abstract.
