Background
Hunger in a Land of Plenty
South Africa’s food crisis is shifting from the margins to formal scrutiny, as the SAHRC probes a system where food is abundant, yet access is not. Testimony reveals a stark reality: millions go hungry not because of shortages, but due to high costs, weak distribution, and deep inequality.
At its core, the system functions, but not equitably, raising urgent questions about policy, accountability, and whether the country’s food economy is designed to feed all, or just sustain itself.
