Globally, more than 800 million people are still living on less than US$1.25 a day, many lacking access to food and drinking water. Women are more likely to live in poverty than men due to unequal access to paid work, education and property. Now, the problem is being worked on by increasing access to basic resources and services, and supporting communities suffering hunger.

Central and East Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean have all made huge progress in eradicating extreme hunger.The SDGs aim to end all forms of hunger and malnutrition by 2030, making sure all people – especially children – have access to sufficient and nutritious food all year round. This involves promoting sustainable agricultural practices: supporting small scale farmers and allowing equal access to land, technology and markets. Together with the other goals set out here, we can end hunger by 2030.
