Poverty and food security


ENDING hunger, achieving food security and improved nutrition, and promoting sustainable agriculture by 2030, is goal number two of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Malaysia scored moderately for hunger in the 2022 Global Hunger Index, showing a minor increase from 10.9 in 2014 to 12.5 in 2022, most likely reflecting the food insecurity due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
