There will be no more hunger in 2030. For the 795 million people worldwide who are massively undernourished in 2015, this promise is a good prospect. In September 2015, the heads of state and government of more than 150 countries agreed on including “Zero hunger” in the seventeen goals adopted at the UN Summit on Sustainable Development in New York. Since disaster risk and food security are mutually influential to a considerable extent, a world without hunger would mean fewer disasters. This is demonstrated by the WorldRiskReport 2015, which focuses on food security.
