Hot Off the Press: Spotlight on Harvest and
Food Security

While many cultures celebrate harvests this autumn, issues of food security continue to threaten hundreds of millions of people worldwide, especially those who live in rural areas of developing nations. In this issue of the World Wise Window, World Wise Schools brings you stories of how Peace Corps Volunteers are helping to solve the problem of world hunger at the grassroots level.

Hot Topics

The World Wise Window focuses on a new topic each month, bringing educators stories with lesson plans from post-Tsunami Sri Lanka and Jordan to China and New Orleans. The Window examines global issues and cross-cultural understanding through folk tales, videos, slide shows, photos, and Volunteer-written narratives that come from a Peace Corps Volunteer's unique perspective on daily life in countries around the world.
