ProjectFactsheetInstauration de conditions plus propices à la sécurité alimentaire et nutritionnelle et à l’agriculture durable - GCP/INT/244/EC 2025Au cours de la période 2014-2020, la Commission européenne a investi près de 8 milliards d’EUR dans plus de 60 pays aux fins de l’amélioration de la sécurité alimentaire et nutritionnelle et de l’agriculture durable. Préoccupée par les goulets d’étranglement stratégiques et institutionnels susceptibles de compromettre l’obtention de l’impact voulu à l’échelle voulue, elle a forgé un partenariat avec l’Organisation des Nations Unies pour l’alimentation et l’agriculture (FAO) afin de renforcer les capacités des pays et de rendre l’environnement stratégique et institutionnel plus propice à la sécurité alimentaire et nutritionnelle et à l’agriculture durable. Ce partenariat s’est concrétisé sous la forme du programme FIRST (Impact sur la sécurité alimentaire et nutritionnelle, résilience, durabilité et transformation). Ce programme a été lancé à la mi-2015, et y ont depuis participé des gouvernements, des délégations de l’Union européenne, des bureaux de représentants de la FAO et d’autres partenaires de développement aux niveaux national, régional et mondial, avec pour objectifs de faire en sorte: i) que les buts et cibles associés à l’ODD 2 (Faim zéro) soient explicitement inclus dans les cadres stratégiques et programmatiques sectoriels et intersectoriels, et que l’engagement ferme soit pris d’améliorer l’alimentation et l’état nutritionnel des populations; ii) que les parties prenantes compétentes soient dotées des moyens nécessaires pour contribuer pleinement au dialogue sur les politiques et à la gouvernance, et pour participer de manière effective à la mise en oeuvre des politiques et des programmes.

Book (stand-alone)High-profileState of knowledge of soil biodiversity - Status, challenges and potentialities
Report 2020
2020Also available in:
No results found.There is increasing attention to the importance of biodiversity for food security and nutrition, especially above-ground biodiversity such as plants and animals. However, less attention is being paid to the biodiversity beneath our feet, soil biodiversity, which drives many processes that produce food or purify soil and water. This report is the result of an inclusive process involving more than 300 scientists from around the world under the auspices of the FAO’s Global Soil Partnership and its Intergovernmental Technical Panel on Soils, the Convention on Biological Diversity, the Global Soil Biodiversity Initiative, and the European Commission. It presents concisely the state of knowledge on soil biodiversity, the threats to it, and the solutions that soil biodiversity can provide to problems in different fields. It also represents a valuable contribution to raising awareness of the importance of soil biodiversity and highlighting its role in finding solutions to today's global threats. -

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of the World's Land and Water Resources for Food and Agriculture (SOLAW)
Managing systems at risk
2011This edition of The State of the World’s Land and Water Resources for Food and Agriculture presents objective and comprehensive information and analyses on the current state, trends and challenges facing two of the most important agricultural production factors: land and water. Land and water resources are central to agriculture and rural development, and are intrinsically linked to global challenges of food insecurity and poverty, climate change adaptation and mitigation, as well as d egradation and depletion of natural resources that affect the livelihoods of millions of rural people across the world. Current projections indicate that world population will increase from 6.9 billion people today to 9.1 billion in 2050. In addition, economic progress, notably in the emerging countries, translates into increased demand for food and diversified diets. World food demand will surge as a result, and it is projected that food production will increase by 70 percent in t he world and by 100 percent in the developing countries. Yet both land and water resources, the basis of our food production, are finite and already under heavy stress, and future agricultural production will need to be more productive and more sustainable at the same time.
