What’s It All About?
Food is more than fuel. It is culture, connection, celebration, and joy. From sharing a homemade
meal with family to discovering a new favourite dish, food brings people together. Yet, not
everyone has the privilege of abundance. Millions go to bed hungry, even in 2025.
That is why World Food Day, held every October 16, matters. It is a global reminder that access to
healthy, safe, and nutritious food is a human right. It is also a call to action: to build fairer, more
sustainable food systems and strengthen food security for all.
