UN is working to reduce the number of hungry people to ZERO by 2030 looking at food security globally. The largest number of undernourished people live in Asia pacific island followed by Africa. Nigeria, Afganishtan, Sieria. Liberia, Haiti, Mozambique, Madagascar, Timor-Leste, Chad these are top 10 hungry country in the world. The COVID-19 pandemic and its economic fallout have double the number of people facing acute food crisis, these acute crisis might set the stage for increasing level of hunger and related health problem in the long run.COVID-19 has made it clear that our food system, as they stand, are inadequate to the task of achieving ZERO Hunger, even of the world does produce enough food to feed all of its inhabitants. Some community based organization such as food banks, help address families, immediate food needs, while other work to address the root cause of the food insecurity improve local access to nutritious food and provide community based nutrition education. The obvious need is that everybody need food, but the complexity of delivering sufficient food to a national population and to the whole world population shows why food security is such a priority for all countries, whether developing or developed countries. So, here is the time for the whole world that they unite together to fight against food insecurity and remove hunger from people because the availability of the food can be guaranteed in two ways either by production of the food or by Trade., So, government should have to make more aid those needs and media, researchers have to make more effort on this issue of food insecurity to make it more transparent. So, it’s high time to join our hand together work against food insecurity and work for “ZERO HUNGER”.
