	The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2022 FAO, IFAD, UNICEF, WFP and WHO (2022) C1 View PDF(230) Download (191) Add to my MEDBOX This year’s report should dispel any lingering doubts that the world is moving backwards in its efforts to end hunger, food insecurity and malnutrition in all its forms. We are now only eight years away from 2030, but the distance to reach many of the SDG 2 targets is growing wider each year. There are indeed efforts to make progress towards SDG 2, yet they are proving insufficient in the face of a more challenging and uncertain context. The intensification of the major drivers behind recent food insecurity and malnutrition trends (i.e. conflict, climate extremes and economic shocks) combined with the high cost of nutritious foods and growing inequalities will continue to challenge food security and nutrition. This will be the case until agrifood systems are transformed, become more resilient and are delivering lower cost nutritious foods and affordable healthy diets for all, sustainably and inclusively Tags: food, food insecurity, Food Security, nutrition, Malnutrition, health diets, affordability, hunger, Agriculture, Policies, Source: https://www.fao.org/documents/card/en/c/
