Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetHigh-profileZimbabwe Livelihoods and Food Security Programme (LFSP)
Operational and strategic partnerships to deliver integrated programme with widespread results for Zimbabwe's poorest farmers
2019Also available in:
No results found.Zimbabwe has some of the highest levels of food insecurity in Sub-Saharan Africa, regardless of the outcome of its agricultural seasons. In this context, the engagement with operational partners in the context of Zimbabwe Livelihoods and Food Security Programme (LFSP) has had a profound impact on FAO’s ability to achieve results on the ground. Through OPIM (Operational Partners Implementation Modality), FAO could capitalize on the comparative advantage of its partners, drawing on invaluable local knowledge and resources to broaden the scope and reach of its interventions. LFSP’s engagement of a variety of partners with diverse experiences has, for instance, opened up multiple avenues to reach beneficiaries with new knowledge, skills and technologies. Similarly, LFSP’s operational partners have benefited from FAO’s own expertise. The existence of governance structures has ensured compliance with contractual obligations in terms of programme delivery, tracking results, risk management and achieving value for money through a structured monitoring and accountability process. Continuos communication and close coordination with operational partners was also a key feature for the project success and has translated into a strong culture of feedback between FAO and its operational partners, having a profound impact on the programme adaptability. -

BookletCorporate general interestEmissions due to agriculture
Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018
2021Also available in:
No results found.The FAOSTAT emissions database is composed of several data domains covering the categories of the IPCC Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sector of the national GHG inventory. Energy use in agriculture is additionally included as relevant to emissions from agriculture as an economic production sector under the ISIC A statistical classification, though recognizing that, in terms of IPCC, they are instead part of the Energy sector of the national GHG inventory. FAO emissions estimates are available over the period 1961–2018 for agriculture production processes from crop and livestock activities. Land use emissions and removals are generally available only for the period 1990–2019. This analytical brief focuses on overall trends over the period 2000–2018. -
BookletHigh-profileFAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022The FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 was endorsed by FAO Council in June 2022. This new strategy replaces the previous strategy from 2017 to better FAO's climate action with the Strategic Framework 2022-2031, and other FAO strategies that have been developed since then. The Strategy was elaborated following an inclusive process of consultation with FAO Members, FAO staff from headquarters and decentralized offices, as well as external partners. It articulates FAO's vision for agrifood systems by 2050, around three main pillars of action: at global and regional level, at country level, and at local level. The Strategy also encourages key guiding principles for action, such as science and innovation, inclusiveness, partnerships, and access to finance.
