Food Insecurity

The article discusses the evolution of food security research over the past 40 years. It identifies three main stages: focusing on national food supply in the 1970s, family food security in the 1980s, and livelihood safety from the 1990s onwards. The research highlights the shift in focus from just having enough food to eat to ensuring people's overall well-being and safety. This framework helps guide future discussions on how to improve food security for everyone.
