If sustained politico-economic and social stability depends on meeting basic human needs, a look around the globe reminds us that hunger and health remain major concerns in building sustainable societies.  Deep ethical questions underlie our current global, regional and local approaches to resolving hunger and disease.  What are the most important ethical questions?  How do they play out in the real world?  And what hope is there for addressing them?  Join these two experts in a robust discussion of ethical things that really matter.
