Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG 2 or Global Goal 2) aims to achieve "zero hunger". It is one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals established by the United Nations in 2015. 


The official wording is: "End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture".


SDG 2 highlights the "complex inter-linkages between food security, nutrition, rural transformation and sustainable agriculture".


According to the United Nations, there are around 690 million people who are hungry, which accounts for slightly less than 10 percent of the world population.


One in every nine people goes to bed hungry each night, including 20 million people currently at risk of famine in South Sudan, Somalia, Yemen and Nigeria.


Links with other SDGs


The SDGs are deeply interconnected. All goals could be affected if progress on one specific goal is not achieved.

Climate change and natural disasters are affecting food security. Disaster risk management, climate change adaptation and mitigation are essential to increase harvests quality and quantity. Targets 2.4 and 2.5 are directly linked to the environment.
