American International University-Bangladesh (AIUB) actively supports Sustainable Development Goal 2 by addressing food security, promoting sustainable agriculture, and reducing hunger on campus and in the community. AIUB hosts workshops and seminars like “Agriculture and its Prospects for Sustainable Development in Bangladesh” and “Prospects of Local Products for MSMEs in Bangladesh”, which provide students and local farmers with insights into sustainable agricultural practices​.

The university emphasizes sustainable food choices by offering healthy, affordable vegetarian and vegan options in all its food outlets. To combat hunger, AIUB provides food assistance programs such as food pantries, benefiting both students and staff experiencing food insecurity. These initiatives align with efforts to ensure access to nutritious food on campus.

AIUB also contributes to agricultural innovation through research and technology. Projects like IoT-Based Smart Poultry and Fish Farming and Potato Leaf Disease Detection Using Image Processing aim to enhance sustainable farming techniques. These technologies are shared with local farmers through free workshops and access to university facilities, promoting sustainable agriculture.

Furthermore, AIUB prioritizes purchasing locally sourced, sustainable products to support regional food producers. These actions not only reduce hunger but also foster community development, reinforcing AIUB’s commitment to SDG-2.
