Remote sensing in development cooperation
Topic: “A world without hunger”
Focus: Agriculture
Ensuring adequate food worldwide is becoming a challenge. First of all, the population is constantly growing and secondly natural resources are limited. Climate change and the decline in biological diversity are making it even more of a challenge to ensure adequate food and balanced nutrition and to combat poverty. Adapted forms of agriculture are becoming increasingly important and also play a role in achieving sustainability goal (SDG) 2 “Zero hunger” of Agenda 2030. The goal is to end world hunger, achieve food security and improve nutrition as well as promote sustainable agriculture.
