Background paper on ending hunger and achieving food security in Africa
Sustainable Development Goal 2 provides a comprehensive, integrated approach for ending hunger, food insecurity and malnutrition, and promoting agricultural and rural transformation. Goal 2 encapsulates three closely related themes: ending hunger, achieving food security and improving nutrition; achieving sustainable agriculture; and increasing the productivity, incomes and resilience of small and other producers. The three themes broadly address the various dimensions of food insecurity, food availability, food accessibility and food stability by focusing on its root causes, namely low productivity, inadequate purchasing power and inefficient production systems.
