Food issues around the world are not easily solved, but with the empowerment of women and teaching women how to grow food, this can change.
Chelsea Clinton, vice chair of the Clinton Foundation, said the food crisis wonât be solved any time soon, but by giving women the same access to growing and marketing food as men have around the world, hunger issues can decrease. (snip)
"We need to be sure to help small farmers around the world get access to what is needed to grow food, so they can have the same opportunities to be successful as the larger farmers," said Clinton. "Investing in and empowering women is the smart thing to do."
Clinton stressed women farmers also need to be leaders and help others learn how to grow crops. In areas where the Clinton Foundation has helped with training and education, these people have better farming practices and better food opportunities.(snip)
"Since women and girls are doing a large part of the work on the farms in other countries, it is important for them to be taught the best practices they can use in their situation in order to increase yields and combat hunger in their families and communities," said Clinton.(snip)
Clinton said she was always taught she could do anything she put her mind to: "My grandma always said, 'Life is not about what happens to you, but what you do about what happens to you.'

The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
You were born with many obstacles that are whoppers, Chel.
Oh lord....
Sister used to teach Public HS in the woods up in NE GA.
Half of her class lived in trailers and the girls had coach & MK purses, but parents didn’t have enough $$ for electricity and in some cases lunch.
Do the math there.
Isn’t she the manager of the crime family foundation?
Wonder which grandma?
If it was the street-walking Clinton grandma, I doubt she could utter a complete sentence. Little Hitlery has learned the black art of lying well from her evil mother.
Poor Chelsea. She never knew Grandpa Clinton, but then neither did her grandma.
Women have always known how to grow and reap the fruit of the land, some much better than others. Some never learned from their own mothers, and some was simply forgotten.
It is oppression and suppression of knowledge that creates most famines, by not allowing the female gender to forage the land to acquire that great necessity of life, food in some form, and present it to the other members of the family, or clan, or tribe, or larger assemblages of folk.
God knows, she really looks like her daddy.
Does anyone here know if he is still in the calaboose?
“We need to be sure to help small farmers around the world get access to what is needed to grow food, so they can have the same opportunities to be successful as the larger farmers,” said Clinton. “Investing in and empowering women is the smart thing to do.””
Yes, by all means. Let’s help Chelsea to help the opium poppy farmers throughout the Middle East to invest in and empower their women.
This is some 6th grade stuff here.
The only hungry people in this country are those forced to eat Mooochelle Obama’s lunches.
“’Life is not about what happens to you, but what you do about what happens to you.’
Liberals like to say that. But what it means is that we are responsible for our own lives and not victims dependent on the collective.
It’s hard to see how the system of Royalty ever worked to begin with.
It seems powerful people nearly always sire idiots.
Yes, but also helping out those privileged children in their multi-million dollar condos need help too.
Pray America wakes
I have no idea.
I have long lost interest in what the Klintoons are doing. I don’t think they are going to make a comeback.
The protruding jaw/mouth is hard to hide or attribute to anyone else.
I have no idea what she’s doing, and “frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn!”, as someone once said.
Wow! After looking at that picture I am sure that she does not want to have any babies either....because they would be white....and look like Web Hubble.
