<p>As the Prime Minister said his speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, aid has played, and will continue to play, an important role in development, but we want to use our G8 presidency to tackle the causes, and not just the symptoms, of poverty. Through addressing the key issues the Prime Minister has outlined for the G8 in 2013—advancing trade, ensuring tax compliance and promoting greater transparency—we can help to move the international agenda forward, to focus on the underlying drivers of growth and jobs which will lift people out of poverty for good.</p><p>Through this agenda, we will take action to promote greater transparency around the extractives industries, in order to increase revenues from natural resources so that they are available for investment in tackling the issues that affect the poorest people. We will galvanise support for land transparency, to promote more responsible and productive investments in agriculture. We will also work to help developing countries collect the tax they are owed, and we will promote trade, to spur growth and wealth creation.</p><p>We are also committed to tackling the problem of hunger in the year of our G8 presidency. We will build on last year's Olympic Hunger Summit with a major hunger event on 8 June and we will take forwards the New Alliance for Food Security and Nutrition, which was launched at last year's G8 and aims to lift 50 million people out of poverty over the next 10 years through sustainable agricultural growth.</p>
