The Hill Times
As a global community, we have the ability to feed the world’s entire population. Yet, today, as we mark World Food Day, the international community is far off-track from achieving Sustainable Development Goal Two, Zero Hunger, by 2030. Hunger doesn’t recognize borders. In 2023, one out of every 11 people in the world—or 757 million women, children, and men—faced high levels of hunger, and more than two billion people regularly had trouble affording nutritious food for their families.
As a child-focused organization, World Vision hosts child protection units, child-friendly spaces, provides lifesaving deworming treatments, and has launched a global campaign to focus on policy responses to hunger. Meanwhile, beyond the ongoing conflict, displacement, and emergency food distributions, small-scale farmers are experiencing insufficient and infrequent rainfall, persistent gender inequalities, and living with poor infrastructure.
