El hambre: abordaje desde la seguridad alimentaria hasta el derecho a la alimentación

Hunger has been approached from an essentially medicalized thought. A comprehensive approach to such an increasing problem has been avoided by the policy proposed by multilateral organizations, which have reduced it to an issue of food production and availability. A more elaborate approach requires taking into account different stakeholders, from those who produce to those who consume, including food policies and our rights as human beings. Thus, the current article aims to provide a holistic view of the dilemma of hunger, analyzing it from the perspectives of food security, food sovereignty and ending up with the right to food as a possible way to solve hunger. The analysis of the available literature allowed highlighting the need for a change of paradigm in the implementation of actions in the territory and the relevance of citizen participation in public policies.
