Context
The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World (SOFI) 2026 report was jointly released by five United Nations agencies—FAO, IFAD, UNICEF, WFP, and WHO. It provides the most comprehensive assessment of global hunger, food insecurity, malnutrition, and progress towards Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 2: Zero Hunger.
History of the Issue
Despite decades of progress, global food security has been disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical conflicts, climate change, inflation, and supply-chain disruptions. These shocks have increased food prices, reduced agricultural productivity, and weakened access to nutritious diets. The SOFI report serves as the principal global benchmark for tracking hunger and nutrition trends and guiding international policy responses.
