World Food Day is celebrated each year on October 16. This day marks the launch of the Food and Agriculture Organization by the United Nations in 1979.

The day is observed to promote global awareness and action against those who suffer from hunger and malnutrition. This day aims to highlight the importance of healthy and clean diet for all. This day brings into notice the concern for the problem of hunger and food security and to combat these issues.

The theme for 2021 World Food Day is “Safe food now for a healthy tomorrow”. As a global community, the role of transformation in the agri-food systems needs to be recognized and be implemented by the respective governments, private companies, farmers, civil societies, academia, and today’s youth. Empowering each and every element of our agri-food systems to collaborate more fairly, sustainably and inclusively from farm to table, and beyond is the need of the hour and has to be expressed and addressed fairly.
