    This third edition of the State of Mediterranean and Black Sea Fisheries provides a comprehensive overview of the status of fisheries in the region, looking at their main features and trends, in order to better inform their management and better examine current and future challenges that they will face in the near future. The aim of this report is to produce a document that could provide useful analysis and direction for decision-making and future action. In this respect, this publication also represents a convenient source of information for the FAO Committee on Fisheries and offers a practical complement to the data provided in the State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture published by the FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Department. This volume includes seven chapters divided into two sections: a first part on the status and trends of different aspects of Mediterranean and Black Sea fisheries, including fleet, catches, socio-economic variables and bycatch, and a second part that focuses on the management of Mediterranean and Black Sea fisheries, including an overview on small-scale fisheries. This report is based to a large extent on the most up-to-date data available submitted by GFCM contracting and cooperating non-contracting parties, including information on stock status, national catches, fleet and socio-economic information up to 2018. It is also complemented with information from other sources.

    La situation mondiale de l’alimentation et de l’agriculture 2019
    Aller plus loin dans la réduction des pertes et gaspillages de denrées alimentaires
    2019
    Also available in:
    Réduire les pertes et les gaspillages de denrées alimentaires est un impératif qui fait partie intégrante du Programme de développement durable à l’horizon 2030. De l’avis général, la réduction des pertes et gaspillages alimentaires peut contribuer de manière décisive à l’amélioration de la sécurité alimentaire et de la nutrition, à la promotion de la durabilité environnementale et à la baisse des coûts de production. Toutefois, dans ce domaine, les efforts n’aboutiront que s’ils reposent sur une connaissance approfondie du problème. Le présent rapport fournit de nouvelles estimations sur le pourcentage des denrées alimentaires qui sont perdues au niveau mondial, depuis le stade de la production jusqu’à la vente au détail. Il constate par ailleurs une grande hétérogénéité dans les estimations relatives aux pertes alimentaires, souvent pour un même produit ou un même stade de la chaîne d’approvisionnement. Le fait de pouvoir déterminer et comprendre clairement les points critiques où se produisent les pertes dans les différentes chaînes d’approvisionnement – là où le potentiel de réduction des pertes alimentaires est élevé – est une condition essentielle si l’on veut prendre des mesures adéquates. Le rapport fournit des principes directeurs susceptibles de guider les interventions de réduction des pertes et gaspillages alimentaires en fonction des résultats escomptés, que ce soit sur le plan de l’efficacité économique, de la sécurité alimentaire, de la nutrition ou de la durabilité environnementale.

    FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022
    Also available in:
    The 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.
