1In 2020, the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to the World Food Programme (WFP). Why a Nobel Prize for the WFP, and why
2now? In 2019, the WFP assisted nearly 100 million people in 88 countries. It is the safety net for those who fall off
3the edge of existence. It is a response to solving the problem of food instability. Its Nobel Prize reminds us all of
4the moral hazard in imagining that the poor and vulnerable are somebody else's problem. The WFP has been around since
51961 and has been the global coordinator of nationally based efforts to avoid disasters with food aid. Despite decades
6of effort to eliminate hunger, the latest estimate is that about 11% of people on the planet (about 820 million people)
7are suffering daily undernourishment. Progress at reducing undernourishment has stopped despite gains through the 1990s
8and 2000s. Developed countries sometimes offer food and aid to developing ones, but at a price. One American philosopher
9stated that addressing the needs of the poor and vulnerable is about more than money-it is mostly about creating
10conditions under which prosperity and opportunity can thrive. When aid is offered with heavy conditions, attached, like
11loan repayment or food for resources, it often widens the gap between rich and poor and sustains the old world order.
12This is why the work of the WFP is so vital. The scientific community, however, can provide a helping hand to the WFP.
13By sharing knowledge of agriculture and climate with peers in countries most vulnerable to poverty and hunger,
14scientists can help reduce these problems. By making its voice heard, science can lead by example. The ability to
15overcome food shortages that must be built into some of the poorest countries will not come from loans from wealthy
16countries, which may have food problems of their own, or world economic institutions. This ability will be built upon
17self-confident people using open and shared scientific knowledge to pull themselves out of their misery.
