World Food Day is celebrated annually on the 16th of October to commemorate the 1945 founding of the Food and Agriculture Organisation and the theme for this year is: ‘Right to foods for a better life and a better future’

The world’s farmers produce enough food to feed more than the global population yet, hunger persists. Around 733 million people are facing hunger in the world due to repeated weather shocks, conflicts, economic downturns, inequality, and the pandemic. This impacts the poor and vulnerable most severely, many of whom are agricultural households, reflecting widening inequalities across and within countries.

To raise awareness this World Food Day, the Workshop team have chosen to come together and prepare foods from some of their favourite countries across the globe to all enjoy a lunch together in the office.
