- Abstract
The editorial article titled "Agri-food systems and food insecurities" addresses the issue of hunger and food insecurity. According to the FAO, there are around 735 million people suffering from hunger and over 3.1 billion who cannot afford a healthy diet. The article seeks to rethink agri-food systems at a global, regional, national, and local level, and confront the taboo of hunger. Regional analyses are presented on palm oil production in the Magdalena Medio region, peasant pig farming in the Valle del Cauca, and the situation of rural women in Colombia. The fight against hunger by indigenous communities in the Northern Cauca region and the strengthening of mobilization and social participation processes in the municipality of Granada, Antioquia, are also highlighted.
