Viazanková, Zuzana ; Kuna, Zbyněk (advisor) ; Petr, Petr (referee)
This work focuses on the Horn of Africa food crisis. The food problem is one of the largest and oldest problems of mankind. This problem is closely related to the problem of hunger and poverty. Lack of access to food, raw materials and water is reflected in higher tension and violence, which then results in various conflicts. The work provides a theoretical basis for this problem. The following section describes the causes of the food problem, such as population growth, lack of education, land degradation, climate change, natural disasters and the like. The practical part is focused on the analysis of statistical data on demographics, economics, poverty, foreign aid, foreign trade and agriculture of the Horn of Africa. In the last part of the thesis, there are outlined possible solutions of undesirable situation in which the Somali peninsula is located, among them an increase in the population's education, stabilization of population, the development of agriculture, change of ownership of the soil, economic growth, integration groupings and food programs.

Obstacles and Solutions to Solving the Global Hunger Issue in the World
Obenbergerová, Lucie ; Pavlík, Petr (advisor) ; Kačírková, Eliška (referee)
The urgency of the global hunger and poverty issues has led to establishment of the United Nations Millennium Development Goals with the deadline at the end of 2015. The presented bachelor thesis focuses on the first and the most difficult goal which is to reduce extreme poverty and hunger by half compared to 1990. Obstacles to achieving the goal emerge, slow down the progress and lower the effect of the invested money and effort. The aim of the thesis is to define and evaluate the obstacles and their negative effect on developing countries and implementation of otherwise efficient solutions, which are afterwards described. The thesis supports, with an example of three successful countries from different parts of the world, the fact that by using adequate methods it is possible to achieve the goal.

Food insecurity in developing countries
Lorencová, Ivana ; Jeníček, Vladimír (advisor) ; Řehořová, Veronika (referee)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to point out that the battle against hunger can be won in our lifetime. However, this problem can not be solved without concerning all connections between undernutrition and other global problems. This thesis contains an analysis of various aspects of health, education, population growth, agriculture or trade which are strongly related to poor nutritional status. The technology, knowledge and resources exist to meet the needs of hungry. As it was revealed in my study, they should not been implemented unless they respect mutual links between different problems.
