Food First supports a "bottom-up" approach to solving world Hunger , asserting the ability of all countries to feed their own people if they focus on agriculture for Subsistence rather than for export. Food First strongly opposes the policies of Free Market institutions such as the World Trade Organization , World Bank , and International Monetary Fund . As Of 2004 , it is active in the campaign against the proposed Free Trade Area Of The Americas . The organisation also opposes U.S. trade rules with the African nation of Nigeria . It claims that the current state of trade is crippling the Nigerian economy and that the trade rules "legalise the exploitation of Nigeria's natural resources". NOTES SEE ALSO EXTERNAL LINK |
