SDG 2

शून्य भुखमरी — हर थाली में भोजन।

Zero Hunger — Food on Every Plate.

Ending hunger, improving nutrition, and building food security for every Indian family by 2030.

हर भारतीय परिवार के लिए भुखमरी समाप्त करना, पोषण सुधारना और खाद्य सुरक्षा सुनिश्चित करना।

Sustainable agriculture and food security in India

The Goal

SDG 2 seeks to end hunger, achieve food security, improve nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture. Investing in agricultural productivity, infrastructure and technology can ensure everyone has access to nutritious food year-round, while support for small-scale farmers and resilient practices helps communities adapt to climate change.

The Challenge in India

Millions of Indian families still face uncertain meals, and child nutrition remains one of our most urgent national challenges.

  • Monthly dry-ration kits for 1,200+ at-risk families during lean season.
  • Anganwadi-linked malnutrition screening for children under 5.
  • Millet kitchen-garden training for women's self-help groups.
