World Food Day
World Food Day is celebrated globally every year on 16 October in honour of the founding date in 1945 of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). Events take place in more than 150 countries around the world to commemorate the day and to raise global awareness and action for the millions of people that go hungry every day. Since 1981, World Food Day has adopted a different theme each year to highlight areas of concern.
