Each year, the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization releases its State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World report, providing one of the clearest pictures of global hunger today.

This year's report reminds us that while progress is happening in some places, millions of people continue to face hunger because of challenges that extend far beyond food itself. Conflict, climate shocks, rising costs and economic instability continue to make it difficult for families to consistently access nutritious meals. Some of the key findings include: - Nearly 645 million people around the world are facing hunger. - 7.8% of the world's population, or almost one in every 13 people, is undernourished. - 2.1 billion people — over 25% of the global population — are food insecure, meaning they do not have regular access to the nutritious food they need to live a healthy life. These numbers help shape how governments, community organizations and nonprofits — like us — respond to hunger around the world. We’re committed to ensuring our work is as impactful as possible.
