HOST: WORLD FOOD PROGRAMME & FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS
The session, “A World Without Hunger” will focus on multi-sectoral initiatives and efforts towards achieving SDG 2 on zero hunger. After decades of steady decline, the number of people suffering from hunger has been on the rise since 2014. Current estimates show that around 690 million people are suffer from hungry, and if the current trend continues, this number would rise to 840 million by 2030. Man-made conflicts, climate change and economic downturns, coupled with the COVID-19 pandemic, are exposing more people to the perils of hunger. To tackle the challenge, various actors are implementing emergency food assistance and long-term initiatives to save and change the lives of people. Moderated by the World Food Programme, this session is aimed at sharing knowledge and efforts and good practices to combat hunger by actors from multiple sectors in the field.
Experiences of emergency food assistance for people affected by conflicts, floods and economic crisis in Sudan and other countries will be shared by Mr. Itaru Furuta, Head of Field Office Damazine, Sudan, who has served in various duty stations including Yemen and Myanmar. Mr. Sean Kerrigan, National Director of World Vision Rwanda, a WFP partner, will introduce the organization’s initiatives to achieve SDG2 in the country, including the Home Grown School Feeding programme. Ms. Suzanna Sumkhuu, Head of Development Policy and Planning Division, the National Development Agency of Mongolia, will showcase initiatives implemented in partnership with the Food and Agriculture Organization to ensure sustainable food production with smart agriculture. The session will provide a venue to deepen understanding about global hunger and discuss latest efforts and challenges ahead. The speakers will also share experiences and ideas to overcome challenges associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.
セッション１「飢餓のない世界」では飢餓をゼロにのSDG２を達成するための多分野の取り組みに焦点を当てます。数十年飢餓人口は減少傾向にありましたが２０１４年より世界の飢餓人口は再び増加しています。現在約６億９０００万人が飢餓に苦しんでおり、現在の傾向が続けば２０３０年には飢餓人口は約８億４０００万人に達すると予測されています。紛争や気候変動、貧困に加え新型コロナウイルスの蔓延によって多くの人が飢餓にさらされています。同時に国際機関、NGO、政府といった様々な分野のアクターが緊急食料支援や長期にわたる取り組みを通して命を救い、影響を受けた人の人生に変化をもたらしています。当セッションでは様々なアクターによる現場での飢餓と闘う取り組みや好事例を共有します。WFPパートナーのワールドビジョンからはショーン・ケリガンルワンダ事務所ディレクターが現地の給食提供を中心に、同団体がルワンダでSDG2達成のために行っている取り組みを紹介。モンゴル開発庁のスザンナ・スムクウ開発政策、計画部長からは、FAOとの連携を通じた、スマート農業による持続可能な食料生産の取り組みについて紹介します。このセッションでは世界の飢餓や最新の取り組み、また課題について理解を深めるとともにコロナ禍での困難を乗り越えるための活動やアイディアについても共有、議論する場を提供します。
