According to the World Food Programme (WFP), hunger has been on the rise since 2015 and, by 2020, 768 million people are chronically suffering from the problem. In the same year, 155 million people in 55 countries experienced acute hunger requiring urgent food, nutrition and livelihoods assistance.
If these numbers were not alarming enough, the WFP affirms that 1 billion people do not have sufficient food consumption in low and lower-middle income countries today. No wonder why Zero Hunger figures as a priority among the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
One of the ways to address this challenge is through pushing for sustainable food production systems and resilient agricultural practices. Innovation is key to developing solutions. Across our network – and the globe – stories of impact in action are alive! Learn more about the food innovators that are paving the way for a better future.
