With two bio-engineers and a private health expert I have collected data on fifty variables for 200 countries for which I am analyzing (using Structural Equation Modeling and Path Analysis) the relationships between: global geographical characteristics (climate. eco-systems,....), world power, national "capitals" (education, military, finances,....), infrastructure, crop and meat production, food security, and environmental degradation.
This model will allow researchers to identify the causes among variales and the strength in which they affect on another and lead to other variables such as food insecurty. This allows researchers to caluculate the best strategies for addressing the unique needs of individual countries in reducing hunger across the globe.
