More than 345 million people are facing severe food insecurity — more than double the number in 2020 — making it more urgent than ever to find new solutions to a broken food system and tackle the root causes of hunger globally.
With needs increasing as a result of climate change, conflict, and rising costs, international aid agencies and NGOs are working hard to deliver solutions from school feeding programs to innovations that can reduce food waste.
But in order to ensure food security and improve access to healthy diets in the long term — while also safeguarding the environment — the Food and Agriculture Organization calls for an urgent transformation of the food system.
