    This paper uses scenario analyses to investigate how reductions in food loss and waste (FLW) in the European Union (EU) could influence prices in sub-Saharan Africa – as a source and destination of traded agricultural and food products. In addition to a baseline “business as usual” (BaU) scenario, four scenarios with 50-percent reductions are enacted using the Modular Applied GeNeral Equilibrium Tool (MAGNET). The analysis provides insights on potential impacts in terms of medium- to long-term g lobal and local price changes in sub- Saharan Africa and the mechanisms behind them – changes in production, consumption and trade patterns. It also provides insights into the potential welfare impacts. The research shows that loss or waste of safe and nutritious food for human consumption is being prevented and reduced in the EU concurrent to actions in other regions. The potential intra- and inter-regional impacts on food prices and welfare therefore need to be further researched and projected . The research also shows that high-level considerations of the socio-economic impacts of FLW need to be balanced with value chain analyses that include data on costs related to the prevention and reduction measures to be implemented for short-, mediumand long-term returns on investments along food supply chains, including at the end consumption level.

    Exposition des êtres humains ou des animaux au SARS-CoV-2 provenant d’animaux sauvages, d’élevage, de compagnie et aquatiques
    Évaluation qualitative de l’exposition - Résumé
    2021
    Le SRAS-CoV-2 est un nouveau virus à la source de l’épidémie massive actuelle de covid-19. Les pays ont demandé à la FAO de fournir des conseils sur la meilleure façon d’enquêter sur la ou les sources animales potentielles du virus. Ce résumé de la version initiale du document sur l’évaluation qualitative rapide des risques de propagation du SRAS-CoV-2 à l’interface entre l’animal et l’homme présente les principales lacunes dans les connaissances ainsi que ses recommandations clés.
