Episode 6: Persistent myths about our food system | Lessons for Kenya
Update: 2022-11-29
Description
Global hunger is still rising and the world is still not on track to meet the 2030 zero hunger target of the UN Sustainable Development Goals – confirmed on the SOFI report. The number of people affected by hunger globally rose to as many as 828 million, an increase of about 46 million since 2020 and 150 million since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Additionally, almost 3.1 billion people could not afford a healthy diet in 2020, up 112 million from 2019, reflecting the effects of inflation in consumer food prices stemming from the economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures put in place to contain it.
In this episode, Anna Lappé: a national best-selling author, a respected advocate for sustainability and justice along the food chain, joined us and dispelled several persistent myths regarding hunger and our food and farming systems in general.
