End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture
In this study, the authors map the projected changes in water availability onto the components of the food-water-energy Nexus at several spatial scales. Resilience thinking acknowledges the different spatial scales at which governance operates, resilience occurs, and Nexus systems function.
The purpose of this scoping review was to determine the extent to which accessibility and acceptability of federal food assistance programs in the United States have been evaluated among indigenous peoples and to summarize what is currently known. Overall, it was found that little attention has been paid to the accessibility and acceptability of federal food assistance programs among indigenous peoples and more research is needed to understand and improve the participation experiences and health trajectories of these priority populations.

The study forecasts AI-based innovation's impact on SDGs in 22 countries from 2022 to 2030 using System Dynamics Modeling. In most of the 22 countries studied, AI-based innovation positively affects SDGs 1, 3, and 5. For half of the countries studied, AI-based innovation positively influences SDGs 2, 4, 6–8, 11, 13, and 16–17. AI-based innovation does not positively influence SDGs 10, 12, 14–15 for most countries studied.
This chapter advances the UN SDG goals 2 and 9 by highlighting the role AI can play in identifying crop improvement methods for sustainable agriculture.
This chapter aligns with Goals 2 and 11 by focusing on the potential for improved food production when agroforestry practices are exploited. Further, the use of Agroforestry enhances sustainability within food production systems by providing environmental protections and balances.
The UK is trying to achieve carbon neutrality (SDG 13) and improve biodiversity (SDG 15). This One Earth Research Article explores various land-use changes that the UK could make to achieve these various goals but finds that no solutions exist without trade offs like reduction in food production (SDG 2).
This article provides novel insights for further improvements in tomato quality while also developing water-saving irrigation techniques.
