In Brief: The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2017 – SOFI

<p>A shorter version of the FAO flagship publication The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2017 (SOFI), the In Brief is aimed at the media, policy makers and a more general public. SOFI 2017 warns that the long-term declining trend in undernourishment seems to have come to a halt and may have in fact reversed, largely on account of the increased number of ongoing conflicts and the adverse impacts of climate change. Meanwhile, though progress continues to be made in reducing child malnutrition, overweight and obesity are a growing concern in most parts of the world. These and other findings are detailed in this year’s report, which for the first time is published by an expanded partnership, with UNICEF and WHO now joining FAO, IFAD and WFP.</p> <p>The following complementary information is available:<ul> <li>Visit the <a href="http://www.fao.org/state-of-food-security-nutrition/en/"><i>How close are we to #ZeroHunger? </a></i> <li> Download the <a href="http://www.fao .org/3/a-I7695e.pdf"><i>report</i></a></li> <li>Read the <a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-I7790e.pdf"><i>Flyer</i></a></li> </p>
