Food security concerns have multiple dimensions ever evolving with time, space, and the complexity of human needs. These need to be addressed effectively so that there can be proper awareness of which complexity in this situation needs proper addressing rather than simply improving upon the exact dimensions over and over again.  In this respect, the paper draws a comparison of the four dimensions of food insecurity and how their characteristics have changed over time.
