FAO celebrates World Food Day each year on October 16 to commemorate the founding of the Organization in 1945. Events are organized in over 150 countries across the world, making it one of the most celebrated days of the UN calendar. These events promote worldwide awareness and action for those who suffer from hunger and for the need to ensure food security and nutritious diets for all.
World Food Day is a chance to show one's commitment to Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 2 – to achieve Zero Hunger by 2030.
