The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2022 (fao.org)

Global hunger levels are rising, and the food security gap between women and men continues to widen, a new UN report warns. Nearly 10 percent of the world’s population – more than 800 million people – were hit by hunger last year, according to the annual State of Food Security and Nutrition report. There has been a backslide during the COVID-19 pandemic – the proportion of people affected by hunger had been about 8 percent and holding in 2019. The gender gap is also expanding: A greater proportion of women than men went hungry last year. The climate crisis, conflicts, economic shocks, and inequality are threatening global goals to end hunger and malnutrition by 2030.
