Bioversity International is a leading research for development organization dedicated to the use and conservation of biodiversity in agriculture to combat poverty and malnutrition and to enhance the sustainability of agriculture.
An estimated 925 million people are hungry around the world and 175 million children, mainly in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, are stunted due to chronic malnourishment.
Food security is not just about the producing enough food for everyone, it is also about the nutritional quality and diversity of that food.
Bioversity International's nutrition programme [5] will promote the use of agricultural biodiversity within food production systems by working with smallholder farmers [6], and will show that by diversifying diets, using local and traditional foods [7], it can be a sustainable tool to address malnutrition [8] in developing countries.
