According to projections by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), 702-828 million people worldwide were at risk of hunger in 2021. This number is equivalent to three times the current population of Indonesia.

Approximately 424.5 million people (9.1%) in Asia experienced hunger. Around 278 million people (20.2%) in Africa experienced hunger, and 2.5 million people (5.8%) in the Asia-Pacific region experienced hunger.

Meanwhile, 56.5 million people (8.6%) in Latin America and the Caribbean experienced hunger, and less than 2.5% of the population in North America and Europe experienced hunger.

Hunger is an uncomfortable or painful physical condition caused by insufficient food energy consumption. For several decades, the FAO has used the prevalence of undernutrition to estimate the level of hunger in the world. Thus, hunger can also be referred to as undernutrition.
