Goal 2: Zero Hunger
End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture
Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG 2) aims to end hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition, and promote sustainable agriculture. This goal is crucial for ensuring the well-being of all people and the sustainability of our planet. At ISO, we are committed to supporting SDG 2 through our standards, which provide frameworks and solutions that enhance food safety, promote sustainable agriculture, and improve nutrition.
How ISO Standards Support SDG 2
ISO standards play a vital role in supporting SDG 2 by addressing key aspects of food security, nutrition, and sustainable agriculture. Our standards help ensure that food is safe, nutritious, and of high quality, while also promoting sustainable agricultural practices. Here are some of the relevant standards:
ISO 22000: Food safety management systems — Requirements for any organization in the food chain
- Provides a framework for effectively managing food safety risks and ensuring the safety of food products throughout the food chain.
- Helps organizations implement a comprehensive food safety management system, contributing to improved food security and consumer health.
ISO 14001: Environmental management systems — Requirements with guidance for use
- While not exclusively focused on agriculture, this standard helps agricultural organizations manage their environmental responsibilities.
- Supports sustainable farming practices by providing a framework for reducing environmental impacts, conserving resources, and improving overall sustainability in agricultural production.
