Goal 2: End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture

The 2030 Agenda under Goal 2 puts an emphasis on ending all forms of malnutrition and addressing the nutritional needs of the groups of population affected or at risk, such as children, pregnant and lactating women and the elderly. Moreover, more productive and climate-resilient agricultural practices will be promoted in the country. The agents of this change will include small-scale food producers and agriculture businesses, which should see increased incomes and more secure access to productive resources, inputs, knowledge, financial services and markets. These should help maintain ecosystems and strengthen capacity for adaptation to climate change, extreme weather conditions, such as drought, flooding and other disasters, and protection of human health.
