Zero Hunger, also known as Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG 2), is a United Nations initiative aimed at ending hunger, achieving food security, and promoting sustainable agriculture. The official wording of SDG 2 is: 'End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture.' This goal highlights the complex inter-linkages between food security, nutrition, rural transformation, and sustainable agriculture. The initiative emphasizes the importance of sustainable agriculture, which is critical for ensuring that food production is environmentally sustainable and socially equitable. Organizations such as the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the World Food Programme (WFP) are working to support small-scale farmers and improve access to markets and finance. The International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) is also working to support small-scale farmers and improve access to markets and finance.
