Fome Zero

Fome Zero was a government program in Brazil aimed at combating hunger and improving food security for the country's most vulnerable populations. Launched in 2003, it combined policies like direct cash transfers, increased food access, and social assistance to reduce malnutrition and poverty. By focusing on sustainable support, Fome Zero sought to ensure that everyone had reliable access to enough nutritious food, helping improve health outcomes and social inclusion. The program emphasized integrated efforts across health, social policies, and rural development to address the root causes of hunger.
