<p>According to the SOFI 2025 report, around 8.2% of the global population—approximately 720 million people—suffered from chronic hunger in 2024, while 2.3 billion faced moderate or severe food insecurity. Although this marks a slight improvement from previous years, hunger levels remain higher than before the pandemic. Africa has the highest hunger rate, with over 17% of its population undernourished. Projections indicate that 512 million people may still be chronically hungry by 2030. The report stresses the need for targeted fiscal actions, stable policies, and stronger market systems to tackle food insecurity.</p>
