This year the theme for World Food Day is 'Right to foods for a better life and a better future'. It's a timely reminder that all people have the right to adequate foods.

But how do we get from a right to a reality? And why is it so important to think about not just having sufficient food, but also the diversity of diets? That's why we speak of 'foods' emphasising this diversity, as well as food availability, food accessibility and food affordability for all.
