Moral values in law

Conclusion

This study has analysed the norms of international law that are related to the right to adequate food in emergency situations. In so doing, it has focused on two main issues: the obligations of States and non-State entities to respect, protect and fulfil the right to adequate food in emergencies; and the principles and standards applicable to food and food-related aid programmes implemented by international humanitarian agencies.

Under international human rights law, every human being has the right to have physical and economic access at all times to adequate food or to the means for its procurement. In order to progressively realize this right, each State has a legal obligation to take steps to the maximum of its available resources, both individually and through international assistance and cooperation. As a fundamental human right, the right to adequate food applies in emergency situations, including both natural disasters and armed conflicts.

The recognition of the right to adequate food embodied in human rights law is supplemented by norms contained in other branches of international law (refugee law, economic law, environmental law). Moreover, in armed conflicts, international humanitarian law is applicable.

International human rights law and international humanitarian law (where applicable) are complementary. Human rights law, which is applicable (albeit to different degrees) in both peace and war, recognizes the right of individuals to have access at all times to safe and nutritious food or to the means for its procurement. Humanitarian law, on the other hand, applies only in armed conflicts (and in other related situations, like occupation) and is instrumental to protecting certain basic human rights, including the right to food, in these situations. Many of its provisions are aimed at ensuring that persons or groups not taking or no longer taking part in the hostilities are not denied food or access to food, by prescribing certain conduct and prohibiting certain behaviour.
