‘Foods’ stands for diversity, nutrition, affordability, and safety. A greater diversity of nutritious foods should be available in our fields, in our markets, and on our tables, for the benefit of all.
Learn more about this year's theme.
As a global community, we all need to get involved. Governments, the private sector, farmers, academia, civil society and individuals need to work together to ensure all people have access to enough diverse, nutritious and safe foods. We all have a role to play to tackle inequality and poverty, make healthy food choices to increase their availability, reduce food waste and protect the environment.
