    At the 13th Conference of the Parties (COP13) to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), held in December 2016 in Cancun/Mexico, the Parties called for the mainstreaming of biodiversity across all agricultural sectors and adopted the Cancun Declaration on Mainstreaming the Conservation and Sustainable Use of Biodiversity for Well-Being1. Concurrently, in late 2016, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) offered to act as the Biodiversity Mainstreaming Platform2 (the Platform), aiming at facilitating the dialogue and the exchange of information between governments and other stakeholders in regards to the sustainable use, management and restoration of biodiversity across agricultural sectors (including crop and livestock production, forestry, fisheries and aquaculture). As the first major activity of acting as the Biodiversity Mainstreaming Platform, FAO organized in Rome, Italy, the Multi-Stakeholder Dialogue in Biodiversity Mainstreaming across Agricultural Sectors (the Dialogue), between the 29th and the 31st of May 2018. The event was co-organized with the CBD Secretariat and brought together roughly 250 experts and representatives from diverse stakeholder groups. As a follow-up, FAO with the support of the Government of Rwanda and in collaboration with the African Union Commission and other partners including the CBD Secretariat, the African Union Development Agency (AUDA-NEPAD) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) Regional Office for Africa is proposing to organize an African Regional Dialogue on Biodiversity Mainstreaming across Agricultural Sectors (the Regional Dialogue), which will take place from the 4 to the 5 November 2019 in Kigali, Rwanda.

    Tracking progress on food and agriculture-related SDG indicators 2025 2025
    The achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set by the 2030 Agenda is now more crucial than ever, as the target date draws near and many goals are still far from being achieved. Countries across the globe are grappling with an array of complex and interconnected challenges, including ongoing conflicts, health crises, biodiversity loss, the escalating impacts of climate change, and political and economic tensions. FAO is the custodian agency for 22 SDG indicators spanning Goals 2, 5, 6, 12, 14 and 15. Among its key responsibilities as a custodian agency is to curate the indicator methodologies, collect, harmonize and compile data from countries, as well as disseminate and analyse data at global level. This report provides an analysis of regional and global figures and trends for the 22 SDG indicators under FAO's responsibility, thus fulfilling one of FAO’s key roles as custodian agency. The world is at a moderate distance from achieving roughly half of the food and agriculture-related SDG indicators under FAO custodianship; one-quarter of the indicators are close to being achieved, whereas another quarter remains far or very far from being achieved. Meanwhile, progress since 2015 has deteriorated on over three-fifths of the indicators; one indicator has stagnated; whereas only the remaining one-third of indicators have registered an improvement or slight improvement.

    2020年世界粮食安全和营养状况
    实现粮食体系转型,保障经济型健康膳食
    2020
    由于更新了很多国家的数据,今年我们能更精确地对世界饥饿状况进行估算。尤其是新数据的出现帮助我们对中国2000年以来所有食物不足系列年度估计数进行了重新修订,大幅调低了世界食物不足人数。尽管如此,修订后的数字仍印证了以往几期报告中提出的趋势:全球饥饿人口数量自2014年起一直呈缓慢增加趋势。报告还显示,各种形式营养不良带来的负担依然是一项挑战。虽然在儿童发育迟缓、低出生体重和纯母乳喂养相关方面已取得一定进展,但进展速度依然过慢。在所有区域,儿童超重问题尚未得到改善,成人肥胖问题则不断加重。本报告除了对粮食安全和营养状况进行常规评估外,还增加了在假设过去十年趋势持续不变的情况下,对2030年世界前景的预测。预测结果表明,我们的世界难以到2030年实现零饥饿目标,同时,尽管已经取得一定进展,但多数指标表明我们也无法实现全球营养目标。由于COVID-19疫情对健康和社会经济造成影响,多数弱势群体的粮食安全和营养状况很可能进一步恶化。本报告聚焦于膳食质量,将其视为粮食安全和营养之间的关键联系。要想实现可持续发展目标2项下的各项目标,就必须保证人人都能获得充足的食物,同时还要吃得起营养食物。报告还新增了对不同区域、不同发展背景下世界各地健康膳食的成本和经济可负担性的分析。报告对当前食物消费方式的健康和气候变化相关成本进行估值,并介绍一旦转向有助于可持续性的健康膳食后可能节约的成本。报告最后探讨粮食系统转型相关政策和战略,以确保人们能够负担得起健康膳食,从而为消除饥饿和一切形式营养不良做出贡献。
