Addressing the UN-backed body meeting in Rome on Monday, Ant\u00f3nio Guterres underscored that the session was taking place \u201cat a moment of crisis for global food security&#8221; and provided some sobering statistics. &#8220;Last year, 735 million people went hungry. More than 3 billion cannot afford a healthy diet,\u201d said the Secretary-General in a video message, adding that \u201cwe are going backward on our goal of zero hunger by 2030.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He emphasized that hunger and malnutrition were not just problems but human rights violations \u201con an epic scale\u201d, painting a vivid picture of the dire consequences of the rolling crisis. &#8220;When nutritious food is out of reach because of cost or geography; when bodies are eaten away by hunger; when parents watch helplessly as their children suffer and even die from a lack of food\u201d, this is nothing less than \u201ca human tragedy &#8211; a moral catastrophe &#8211; and a global outrage,&#8221; Mr. Guterres stated.<\/p>\n<p>The Secretary-General made it clear the world has the resources to address this crisis. &#8220;There is more than enough food to go around. And more than enough resources to ensure that every person on the planet has enough to eat.&#8221; He emphasized the role of governments in ensuring access to nutritious food, saying that while they have a responsibility to provide it, many governments lack the resources to do so. Ant\u00f3nio Guterres called for effective international solidarity to transform food systems for all people. For that, explained the UN chief, massive investment, innovation, science, and technology are essential \u2013 to build \u201csustainable food systems in harmony with nature and addressing the climate crisis.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He commended the work of the CFS \u2013 which includes staff from the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and World Food Programme (WFP) &#8211; emphasizing its importance in finding solutions. &#8220;Your Committee\u2019s work is critical to this process. From reimagining agrifood systems, to boosting the collection and use of data, to ensuring that the needs of women and girls are at the heart of all that we do.&#8221; The Secretary-General implored the world to prioritize this fundamental human right: &#8220;Let\u2019s give the fundamental human right to food the investment and urgent action it deserves.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Established in 1974, the Committee on World Food Security was reformed in 2009 to become an inclusive international and intergovernmental platform tasked to ensure food security and nutrition for all.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/news.un.org\/en\/story\/2023\/10\/1142717\">The UN<\/a> <\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vaufien\/united-nations-day-24-october-human-right-to-food-needs-massive-investment-guterres\/\">United Nations Day 24 October Human right to food needs \u2018massive investment\u2019: Guterres<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[3240,11971,402,606,607,608],"class_list":["post-117900","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-day","tag-october24","tag-un","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117900","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=117900"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117900\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=117900"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=117900"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=117900"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
