ROME, July 28 (Xinhua) -- Global hunger levels declined in 2024 for the second consecutive year, with an estimated 15 million fewer people affected than in 2023, according to the latest United Nations (UN) report on food security. However, progress remains uneven, as hunger continues to rise in parts of Africa and Western Asia amid ongoing food crises and inflationary pressures.
The 2025 edition of The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World (SOFI) was released Monday by five UN agencies, including the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the World Food Program (WFP), and the World Health Organization (WHO), at the UN Food Systems Summit Stocktaking Moment in Addis Ababa.
