Impact Rankings 2021: zero hunger

The Times Higher Education Impact Rankings are the only global performance tables that assess universities against the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We use carefully calibrated indicators to provide comprehensive and balanced comparison across four broad areas: research, stewardship, outreach and teaching.

This table on SDG 2 – zero hunger measures universities’ research on hunger, their teaching on food sustainability, and their commitment to tackle food waste and address hunger on campus and locally.

The list includes 442 universities from 72 countries/regions.
