    Right to Foods for a better life and a better future: Leave no one behind
    World Food Day, 16 October 2024: Get involved!
    2024
    Food is the third most basic human need after air and water – everyone should have the right to adequate food. Human rights such as the right to food, life and liberty, work and education are recognised by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and two legally binding international covenants. Only when everyone enjoys the human right to adequate food will we be able to achieve other human rights and the Sustainable Development Goals. We all have a role to play. Governments, the private sector, farmers, academia, civil society and individuals need to work together to ensure a greater variety of nutritious, affordable, accessible, safe, and sustainable foods in order to achieve food security and healthy diets for all. Together, we can be the change.
