Established in 1945, the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) was created to ensure global food security, with its motto “Fiat panis” (Let there be bread) reflecting its mission. The FAO, headquartered in Rome and comprising 195 Member States, plays a crucial role in promoting agricultural practices and addressing food insecurity.

However, the environmental costs of this era, such as soil pollution and the emergence of resistant pests, highlight the complex trade-offs involved in the process of ensuring food security.
Historically focused on alleviating food insecurity in low- and middle-income countries, the United Nations (UN) is now systematically destroying the right to food by adopting climate change policies that threaten food, fertilizer, and energy production worldwide. For these reasons, today’s UN is designed to make it
