In this post in the Department of State's "DipNote" blog, Ertharin Cousin, U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Agencies in Rome, examines how improved nutrition and agricultural development are helping to bring Hondurans out of poverty and hunger. Reflecting on a recent trip to the country with "five journalists from Central and South America to see the work the United States and the U.N. Food and Agriculture agencies are doing in the field," Cousin highlights a number of projects "improving the lives of poor and hungry rural families in the region" and concludes, "All the projects we saw are making a difference.
