18 - On World Food Day let's put the farmer household at the center

IDH Podcasts

On this World Food Day we put the farmer household at the centerl! Because despite most of the world’s food being grown by smallholder farmers, they also account for around half of the most undernourished people. This has to change, as not only does access to nutritious food have a significant impact on the overall health and resilience of smallholder farming families but also on rural economies. In our latest podcast IDH's CEO Joost Oorthuizen and Gaël Lescornec, Manager Cocoa & Food Security, talk through the three pillars of food security: availability, affordability and nutrition, and how each contributes to a more resilient farmer household.
