Archbishop Christophe-Zakhia El-Kassis, the apostolic nuncio and Permanent Observer of the Holy See to the United Nations, urged the international community to address hunger and malnutrition during a recent United Nations committee discussion.

The Archbishop stated that poverty remains the most significant global challenge and that hunger and malnutrition are among its most destructive results. He said that international efforts must prioritize human dignity by turning commitments to food security and poverty eradication into political action and the allocation of necessary resources for those in need.
