Crisis scenario makes it difficult to fight hunger and food insecurity in Brazil

The worsening of social inequality in Brazil led the country to register more than 33 million people affected by hunger in 2022, according to data from the 2nd National Survey on Food Insecurity in the Context of the Covid-19 Pandemic.

The survey shows that six out of ten Brazilian households are unable to maintain full access to food and have some concern about food shortages in the future. The situation raises even greater concern given the economic projections of a period of high inflation and growth close to zero in the country.

In this episode of E Tem Mais, Carol Nogueira presents an overview of the economic, political and social obstacles that have contributed to the increase in food insecurity in Brazil. To point out the challenges and alternatives that the country faces in the attempt to contain the advance of hunger, the researcher Nilson Maciel, from the Penssan Network (Research in Food and Nutrition Sovereignty and Security), and the executive director of NGO Citizenship Action, Rodrigo “Kiko” Afonso.
