The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2023

This flagship UN report, produced jointly by the FAO and partner agencies, tracks global hunger and malnutrition and analyses the forces driving them, from conflict and climate shocks to economic downturns. The 2023 edition pays special attention to urbanisation and how it is reshaping food systems and diets. Openly licensed and freely downloadable, it is an essential, evidence-based resource for anyone studying agriculture, development or public health, and a sobering guide to the work still needed to end hunger.
