End Hunger and Promote Sustainable Agriculture

SDG 02 aims to ensure everyone has access to safe, nutritious, and sufficient food all year round by 2030, promoting a world free from hunger and malnutrition.

How You Can Help

You can contribute to ending hunger by supporting local farms, reducing food waste, donating to food banks, and advocating for policies that ensure food security and promote sustainable agriculture.

Ending Hunger and Promoting Sustainable Agriculture

Hunger is a condition where individuals are unable to access sufficient, safe, and nutritious food to meet their dietary needs for an active and healthy life. Measuring hunger involves considering various dimensions such as food availability, access, utilization, and stability.

SDG 02 aims to address hunger comprehensively, promoting sustainable agricultural practices, improving nutrition, and ensuring food security for all. This goal underscores the importance of integrating economic, social, and environmental aspects to achieve long-term food sustainability and resilience.
