IFAD's Rural Development Report 2016
Look at the daily lives of rural people in developing counties and places them into the bigger picture.
It shows their importance to national economies and national development and sets a course for better policies, better choices, better invesments, that will have an impact on lives and nations.
Rural transformation is not automatic.
It is a choices. I hope that every person, every government and every organization engaged in the battle against poverty and hunger will read it and act on its finding.
