On October 16th the World prepares to celebrate World Food Day. For the first time in history more than one billion people are chronicly hungry – and over 400 million of them are children. Approximately every six seconds a child dies from hunger-related causes.

Just what does it really take to save starving kids around the globe?

Al Jazeera’s Inside Story presenter Sohail Rahman is joined by guests Margaret Schuler, the associate vice president of Save the Children, Dr. John Hoddinott, a senior research fellow for the International Food Policy Research Institute, and Mark Smulders, a senior economist with FAO food security and agricultural projects analysis service.
