<font size="4"><span style="font-family:Garamond" lang="EN-GB">Here is how I see things. I
believe that our role in helping to put in place the needed social processes
and mechanisms that will drive sustainable policies in health and nutrition, is
inseparable from a will and intent to change the underlying structural inequalities.
We can realise and grasp this will and carry out this intention coming from
either of two ideological positions: One is ethical, the other is political. I
see the challenge for us being to graduate from the first to the second
approach.<span>  </span></span></font><br><br>The full blog can be read at<br><br><a href="http://wp.me/plAxa-1yh">http://wp.me/plAxa-1yh</a><br><br>Claudio<br>
