Our planet faces a paradox: nearly a third of the world's population experienced food insecurity in 2022, yet a third of the food we grow is never eaten at all. Food loss and waste doesn't just rob billions of nourishment, it unnecessarily drains resources and harms the environment. In this episode, we explore how we can – and must – pursue zero hunger and zero waste as joint goals. In particular, we look at how these efforts are crucial for children, who depend on nutritious diets for healthy development. Hear from IFAD's teams in Brazil and Guatemala about local school feeding programmes – and learn what we are doing to prevent food waste right here in Rome. Featuring Isabel de la Peña, Hardi Vieira, Ana Avilés Ramirez, and Leticia Tanchella Niehues.
