Marking World Food Day Friday, United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon called hunger a “terrible injustice” and reaffirmed the global community’s commitment to work together to end hunger.
“This year’s observance of World Food Day follows the landmark adoption by world leaders of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, including a set of 17 goals to guide our work towards a future of dignity and prosperity for all on a healthy planet,” Ban said.
