According to the World Food Programme, over 345 million people faced high levels of food insecurity in 2023. This powerful statistic underscores how deeply socioeconomic factors affect nutrition, shaping dietary patterns and health outcomes globally.

According to the World Bank, undernutrition costs the global economy over $1 trillion annually due to productivity losses. The relationship between food, nutrition, and economics is a dynamic, mutually reinforcing cycle where economic conditions impact dietary health, and, in turn, nutritional status profoundly affects economic productivity and growth.
