What Is a healthy diet — and how can it help end world hunger? (Global Citizen)

August 20, 2021


Global Citizen published an article on how local food systems can ensure healthy diets everywhere by growing nutritious and diverse crops. Millions of people experience food insecurity, with estimates that over 800 million go to bed hungry each night. And yet, we constantly hear that we produce enough food to feed every person in the world. How is this possible?  Namukolo Covic, senior research coordinator states, “When people say we have enough food for everyone, I think the important question is: What food is being talked about? Where is it grown?  And also, the type of food that they are generally referring to — who, and how many people, can actually access it?”
