World Food Day 2026

Farmer in South America

World Food Day takes place annually on 16 October, this year’s theme is ‘Innovate today. Nourish tomorrow’.

Innovation is transforming how food is produced, stored, transported and marketed. It brings together advances in science and technology with the knowledge, experience and ingenuity of farmers, fishers, herders and foresters – including women, youth and Indigenous Peoples – as well as investors, policymakers and entrepreneurs, because transforming Agrifood systems requires collective action.

The private sector plays an essential role in driving investment, strengthening supply chains, creating jobs, and building inclusive business models.  Whether you’re a food manufacturer, food retailer, financial institution, a media company, small- or medium-sized enterprise (SME), you can make a difference.
