Ações e medidas dos governos estaduais no Sul, Sudeste e Centro-Oeste para o ODS 2 na agenda 2030: combate à fome

Abstract

When Brazil joined the 2030 Agenda in 2015, it embraced the global commitment to eradicate poverty and provide well-being for its citizens through the implementation of public policies in the different areas corresponding to the 17 SDGs. However, when we turn our attention to Brazil and especially its socio-historical process, we see an old but very pertinent issue today: hunger. Hunger has always been present, from the early days of colonial Brazil to the present day, but with the growth of social movements to demand quality food and work in the countryside over the years, public policies have been achieved to ensure better conditions. In 2014, Brazil was removed from the Hunger Map for its policies to combat hunger, but with the arrival of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, everything has changed. This work is committed to SDG 2, which concerns Zero Hunger and Sustainable Agriculture, in order to analyze how the state governments of the South, Southeast and Midwest are working to overcome the problem of hunger in Brazil in their states by 2030.
