Abstract:
Food security — defined as the reliable access to sufficient, safe, and nutritious food — is a foundational human need and a core priority of sustainable development. However, long-term ecological changes such as climate change, soil degradation, biodiversity loss, water scarcity, and shifting land use patterns are increasingly destabilising food systems worldwide. These changes threaten agricultural productivity, reduce resilience to extreme weather, magnify pest pressures, and undermine socio-economic access to food, especially for vulnerable populations. This paper examines the major ecological drivers of food insecurity, analyses their impacts on different dimensions of food systems, and discusses strategies for mitigation and adaptation. Drawing on recent research and global assessments, it concludes that integrated, system-level policy responses are necessary to sustain food security in the face of ecological transformation.
