Food Security

Food security refers to the availability, accessibility, and stability of the food supply. A food secure society is one in which all people at all times have physical and economic access to sufficient, safe, and nutritious food to meet their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life. Food security is a complex issue and can be affected by a range of factors, including population growth, natural disasters, climate change, economic instability, and conflict. Ensuring food security is a global challenge and requires a range of efforts, including improving agricultural productivity, reducing food waste, and ensuring access to affordable, nutritious food for all people.
