Abstract

Food security is a very important thing in the development of a country, because it is a basic need and is included in the category of human rights that must be met. A country that cannot fulfill these basic rights can be said to be a country that fails to prosper its people. If food security in a country is unstable, many problems will be caused such as rising hunger and malnutrition rates in the country. Therefore, Asean has made a policy called Asean Integrated Food Security which aims to strive for food security in the region to be stable. With this policy, it is hoped that countries in the Southeast Asian Region can actively collaborate to create integrated food security. This study uses a descriptive qualitative research method, so that it can help the author in explaining the results of the research in more detail and can describe how the implementation of the Asean Integrated Food Security policy in reducing hunger levels in Southeast Asia. The data used in this study is data from previous journals and official media news. The results obtained from this study are that the Asean Integrated Food Security policy is still not effective in implementing its policy in reducing hunger levels in Southeast Asia.
