Since 1945, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has spearheaded global efforts to end hunger. This World Food Day 2025, the FAO celebrates its 80th anniversary. To mark this milestone, the FAO is launching a special series of stories that inspire change – stories of resilience, innovation, and hope. They tell of lands restored, biodiversity cherished, and oceans cared for; of collaboration that strengthens communities and nourishment that brings dignity and resilience. At the heart of these stories are the farmers, fishers, innovators, and communities who are finding sustainable ways to cultivate, process, and share food. Through their actions, today’s challenges are met with determination, blending tradition with innovation—ultimately paving the way for a better tomorrow.
