Legislating for a food-secure future in Guyana: A law on food security and nutrition and the right to adequate food

This position paper provides information on the state of food insecurity and malnutrition in Guyana, highlighting the value and importance of enacting a law that can support the progressive realization of the right to adequate food in this context. International obligations on the right to adequate food subscribed to by Guyana and its constitutional provisions support the case for legislating on this matter. A coordinated legislative approach to address food security and nutrition and support the progressive realization of the right to adequate food, leaving no one behind in Guyana, is needed.
