Global Hunger Falls Below 8% for the First Time Since the Pandemic

Global hunger has declined for the third straight year, with malnourishment dropping below 8% of the world's population for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic. The improvement follows years of supply chain disruptions and pandemic-related closures that had increased food insecurity worldwide. This marks a significant milestone in reversing the hunger crisis that worsened during 2020-2021.
