From the BBC World Service... The United Nations says the harvest in North Korea last year was the worst in more than a decade. Eleven million people are now at risk of malnutrition. We'll explain what's behind the numbers. Also, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development is warning of a further slowdown in global growth. Then, we hear the inspirational story of a woman who suffered burns to 96 percent of her body in a bus crash, who then went on to become the face of an Avon beauty campaign.

Today's show is sponsored by Vistaprint, Amazon Web Services and Clearbanc.
