Access to Food

Access to food refers to the ability of individuals and communities to obtain sufficient, safe, and nutritious food regularly to maintain a healthy life. It depends on factors like income, food availability, physical accessibility, and social or economic barriers. Even if food is produced in a region, some may still lack access due to poverty, geographical challenges, or unequal distribution. Ensuring access to food involves addressing these barriers so everyone can consistently meet their dietary needs for good health and well-being.
