Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

Why do they matters for Timor-Leste?

Goal 2 - Zero Hunger

Goal 2 - Zero Hunger

End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture

In the past 20 years, hunger has dropped by almost half. Many countries that used to suffer from famine and hunger can now meet the nutritional needs of their most vulnerable people. It’s an incredible accomplishment. Now we can go further and end hunger and malnutrition once and for all. That means doing things such as promoting sustainable agriculture and supporting small farmers. It’s a tall order. But for the sake of the nearly 1 out of every 9 people on earth who go to bed hungry every night, we’ve got to try. Imagine a world where everyone has access to sufficient and nutritious food all year round. Together, we can make that a reality by 2030.
