In: http://hdl.handle.net/11540/9126
Abstract
Despite the fact that Sri Lanka has done commendably well on most human development indicators and health indicators, the food security situation in the country has not indicted much progress over the years as depicted by the two most widely used food security indices; Global Hunger Index and Global Food Security Index. The GHI ranks Sri Lanka at 84th position among 118 countries. The GFSI shows a marginal progress in the index score from 2012 to 2016 to remain at 65th position among 113 countries and to be categorized as a moderate performer in 2016.
