To understand the alarming regression in the fight against hunger and malnutrition and the urgent transformations needed in agrifood systems, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the International Fund for Agricultural Development, the World Health Organization, the World Food Programme (WFP) and the United Nations Children's Fund.
This year's report removes any shadow of a doubt, unequivocally confirming that global progress towards ending hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition in all its forms has not only stalled but is experiencing a worrying regression. With only eight years remaining until the 2030 deadline, the gap to achieve the various targets of Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG 2) is alarmingly widening with each passing year, making compliance seem increasingly distant. While it is true that considerable efforts are being implemented to advance towards fulfilling SDG 2, their impact is severely compromised and insufficient in the face of a global scenario of increasing difficulty and uncertainty. The intensification of the main drivers of recent negative trends in food security and nutrition is palpable: armed conflicts destabilize entire regions, extreme weather events devastate harvests and livelihoods with greater frequency and intensity, and global economic disruptions generate volatility and instability. These factors, combined with the persistently high cost of nutritious foods, which excludes millions of people from healthy diets, and the deepening of socioeconomic inequalities, which exacerbate the vulnerability of the poorest populations, will continue to be formidable barriers to global food security and nutrition. This critical situation will persist unchanged until a fundamental transformation of agrifood systems is achieved, converting them into inherently more shock-resilient structures, capable of producing and distributing nutritious foods at a significantly lower cost, thereby ensuring affordable and healthy diets for all, in an intrinsically sustainable and inclusive manner.
