Talk:The Hunger Project

There seems to be a problem with one of the claims and references in the article. The claim/reference says: the failure of the Hunger Project to reach its goal of "ending world hunger by 1997..."; [7] However: (1) reference [7] is dated 1978 and therefore can't substantiate a claimed failure in 1997, and (2) the source document for The Hunger Project describes the mission of The Hunger Project as making "The End of Starvation" "an Idea Whose Time Has Come"; in other words, to have world leaders, agencies, etc. view ending starvation as possible, practical, etc. rather than treating periodic starvation in poor countries as inevitable, as was generally the case when The Hunger Project was founded. While one can debate the extent to which the change in attitude around the possibility of ending hunger since 1997 was due to the activities of The Hunger Project or not, the result appears to have happened. The article should accurately reflect both the actual objective of the project at that time, the result, and the new focus of the project after that result was obtained.

 * The ongoing international groups still recruiting with systematic "funding donations" typically required between $7500 and $10000USD being required for induction prior to active participation in seminars and overseas deployment for little effect to mitigate poverty or food aid.
