 No matter where you live, a world of peace, prosperity and a healthy planet for all people are aspirations that you would relate to. But how are they attained in a world that seems to go from one crisis to another? How do we ensure that these ideals are shared by people across all walks of life? Although people enjoy a generally higher quality of life today than we did a century ago, large-scale suffering and multiple emerging crises exist in many places. These emerging crises are just additions to four of the largest problems we face today. Rampant poverty, world hunger, global inequality and the triple planetary crisis of climate change, pollution and biodiversity loss. In a time of multiple global crises, it merits to remind ourselves that over 800 million people remain chronically undernourished. We already produce enough food to feed the world twice over, but 14% of the food we produce is lost every year during harvest, transportation and storage. An estimated 17% of food is wasted at retail and consumer levels. And our terrestrial and marine ecosystems, the basis of agricultural production, are in a deterioration path. Forest area losses amounted to almost 100 million hectares in the past two decades. While the sustainability of global fishery resources continues to decline, in 2015 the world united to find a solution for all these problems and adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet. At the heart of the 2030 Agenda are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals, or SDGs. To coordinate FAO's engagement in the 2030 Agenda, FAO has established the Office of SDGs that coordinates FAO's efforts to accelerate the implementation of SDGs by supporting countries to implement agri-food transformations. These transformations are the single strongest lever to end poverty, hunger and optimize human health and environmental sustainability. When they function well, agri-food systems have the power to deliver health, nourish our bodies, grow prosperity and equality, and bring us together as families, communities and nations. However, when agri-food systems do not work for everyone, they make human beings, animals and the planet sick. We can transform our agri-food systems by looking at the indivisible nature of the SDGs. We can end hunger and poverty by 2030. We can build a fairer society for all and we will leave no one behind in a healthy planet.
