Abstract

Food security is a fundamental human right. Enhancing agricultural practices, lowering food waste, and ensuring equitable resource allocation are among the actions taken to ensure food security. VGI has developed into a helpful tool for data collection, assisting in tracking resource availability, monitoring price fluctuations, mapping community food assets, and assisting with land management. VGI encourages fair pricing, capacity building, access to nutritious food, decision-making, locating food storage, and capacity building. VGI helps to address food waste, map crop production, compile production techniques, crowdsource food quality data, and track supply chains. Advanced technologies can be integrated with VGI to improve analysis and decision-making. Enhancing VGI programs and inclusivity can help people better understand and address issues related to food security.
