Abstract
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations states that food security is when all people, at all times, have physical, social and economic access to sufficient safe and nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life. Currently, the global prevalence of undernutrition is 9.1%; in Latin America and the Caribbean, 28.2% of people have moderate to severe food insecurity. In Mexico, 22% of households encounter moderate to severe food insecurity. This creates a challenge to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals of the 2030 agenda, on how to end hunger and improve food security. For this reason, the collegiate team has proposed the need for a coordinated, multi, and transdisciplinary action for implementing policies that impact the reduction of inequality and look to the transformation of food systems towards more resilient and sustainable ones, based on scientific evidence. In addition to promote continuing education to confront present and future challenges in food and nutrition. Lastly, to promote the inclusion of trained and certified nutrition professionals to integrate in a coordinated manner observation, management and application of public policies that promote food security and sustainability in the Mexican population .
