Abstract

The concept of international food security, its objectives, and the challenges faced in its implementation. The primary objective of international food security is to eradicate hunger and malnutrition globally. It seeks to address the complex interplay of factors that contribute to food insecurity, including poverty, inequality, climate change, conflict, and inadequate agricultural systems. By promoting sustainable agriculture, improving food production and distribution, and enhancing access to nutritious food, international food
security aims to ensure the well-being and livelihoods of individuals and communities worldwide However, implementing food security initiatives on an international scale presents numerous challenges. One major problem is the unequal distribution of resources and power, both within and between countries. Limited access to land, water, and technology, coupled with unequal trade policies and market dynamics, can hinder efforts to achieve food security. Addressing these structural issues requires international cooperation, policy coherence, and equitable resource allocation.
