Abstract

The world faces a complex nexus of interconnected issues, ranging from climate change and resource depletion to economic disparities and geopolitical tensions. These challenges pose formidable obstacles to ensuring access to safe, nutritious, and sufficient food for all. Examining the multifaceted landscape of global food security, this overview explores the intricate relationships between environmental sustainability, agricultural practices, and the socio-economic well-being of communities. About 924 million individuals (11.7% of the world’s population) face acute food insecurity—a rise of 207 million since the pandemic. There are several causes, including broken food supply networks, high unemployment rates, income loss, and growing food prices. By navigating the nexus of issues surrounding food security and aligning efforts with the 2030 Agenda, the international community can pave the way for a more resilient, sustainable, and equitable global food system.
