International Food Day is celebrated annually on October 16th. This day is observed to raise awareness about global hunger and promote efforts to alleviate food insecurity and malnutrition worldwide. World Food Day was established by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) in 1945 and has been celebrated since 1981
