Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG 2 or Global Goal 2) aims to achieve "zero hunger". It is one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals established by the United Nations in 2015. The official wording is: “End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture". SDG 2 highlights the complex inter-linkages between food security, nutrition, rural transformation and sustainable agriculture. According to the United Nations, there are around 690 million people who are hungry, which accounts for 10 percent of the world population. One in every nine people goes to bed hungry each night, including 20 million people currently at risk of famine in South Sudan, Somalia, Yemen and Nigeria.

SDG 2 has eight targets. The five "outcome targets" are: ending hunger and improving access to food; ending all forms of malnutrition; agricultural productivity; sustainable food production systems and resilient agricultural practices; and genetic diversity of seeds, cultivated plants and farmed and domesticated animals; investments, research and technology. The three means for achieving SDG 2 include: addressing trade restrictions and distortions in world agricultural markets and food commodity markets and their derivatives. SDG 2 has 14 indicators to measure progress.

Under-nutrition has been on the rise since 2015, after falling for decades. This majorly results from the various stresses in food systems that include; climate shocks, the locust crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic. Those threats indirectly reduce the purchasing power and the capacity to produce and distribute food, which affects the most vulnerable populations and furthermore has reduced their accessibility to food. Up to 142 million people in 2020, have suffered from undernourishment as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Stunting and wasting children statistics are likely to worsen with the pandemic. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic "may add between 83 and 132 million people to the total number of undernourished in the world by the end of 2020 depending on the economic growth scenario".

The world is not on track to achieve Zero Hunger by 2030. "The signs of increasing hunger and food insecurity are a warning that there is considerable work to be done to make sure the world “leaves no one behind” on the road towards a world with zero hunger." It is unlikely there will be an end to malnutrition in Africa by 2030.

Targets, indicators and progress

Target 2.1: Universal access to safe and nutritious food

Target 2.2: End all forms of malnutrition

Target 2.3: Double the productivity and incomes of small-scale food producers

Target 2.4: Sustainable food production and resilient agricultural practices

Target 2.5: Maintain the genetic diversity in food production

Target 2.a: Invest in rural infrastructure, agricultural research, technology and gene banks

Target 2.b.: Prevent agricultural trade restrictions, market distortions and export subsidies

Target 2.c. Ensure stable food commodity markets and timely access to information

Sustainable Development Goal 12 (SDG 12 or Global Goal 12) is about "responsible consumption and production". It is one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals established by the United Nations in 2015. The official wording of SDG 12 is "To ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns". SDG 12 is meant to ensure good use of resources, improving energy efficiency, sustainable infrastructure, and providing access to basic services, green and decent jobs and ensuring a better quality of life for all. SDG 12 has 11 targets to be achieved by at least 2030 and progress toward the targets is measured using 13 indicators.

Targets, indicators and progress

Target 12.1: Implement the 10-year sustainable consumption and production framework

Target 12.2: Sustainable management and use of natural resources

Target 12.3: Halve global per capita food waste

Target 12.4: Responsible management of chemicals and waste

Target 12.5: Substantially reduce waste generation

Target 12.6: Encourage companies to adopt sustainable practices and sustainability reporting

Target 12.7: Promote sustainable public procurement practices

Target 12.8: Promote universal understanding of sustainable lifestyles

Target 12.a: Support developing countries' scientific and technological capacity for sustainable consumption and production
