Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2025
Addressing high food price inflation for food security and nutrition
2025While some progress and recovery have been made in recent years, the world is still above pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels and far from eradicating hunger and food insecurity by 2030 (SDG Target 2.1). Similarly, despite some progress in the global nutrition targets, the world is not on track to achieve SDG Target 2.2. Among other factors, persistent food price inflation has slowed this momentum.The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2025 highlights how elevated inflation in many countries has undermined purchasing power and, especially among low-income populations, access to healthy diets. The report documents how high food price inflation is associated with increases in food insecurity and child malnutrition. Vulnerable groups, including low-income households, women, and rural communities, can be particularly affected by food price inflation, risking setbacks in the fight against hunger and malnutrition.In response to these challenges and to prevent future price shocks, the report examines policy measures adopted by countries, and outlines what is necessary going forwards. It stresses the importance of coherent implementation of fiscal and monetary policies to stabilize markets, promote open and resilient trade, and protect vulnerable populations. Additionally, it calls for better data systems and sustained investment in resilient agrifood systems to build long-term food security and nutrition. These coordinated actions are vital to reignite progress towards ending hunger and malnutrition by 2030. -

Book (stand-alone)Strategy / action plan / roadmapGlobal Plan of Action for the Conservation, Sustainable Use and Development of Forest Genetic Resources 2025
Also available in:
No results found.Conservation, sustainable use and development of forest genetic resources are of vital importance to the management and utilization of the world’s forests and other wooded lands, including agroforestry systems. These resources, i.e. the heritable materials maintained within and among tree and other woody plant species, underpin the resilience, adaptability and productivity of forests and other tree-based systems, and contribute in many ways to sustainable development.At its Twentieth Regular Session in March 2025, the Commission on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture agreed upon the revised Global Plan of Action for the Conservation, Sustainable Use and Development of Forest Genetic Resources based on the findings of The Second Report on the State of the World’s Forest Genetic Resources and the recommendations of the Intergovernmental Technical Working Group on Forest Genetic Resources.The FAO Conference adopted the revised Global Plan of Action at its Forty-forth Session in July 2025 and invited Members to strengthen their efforts to implement it. The revised Global Plan of Action includes four priority areas: 1) improving the availability of, and access to, information on forest genetic resources; 2) in situ and ex situ conservation of forest genetic resources; 3) sustainable use, development and management of forest genetic resources; and 4) policies, institutions and capacity-building. Within these priority areas, it identifies 27 strategic priorities and 93 specific actions that can be taken to enhance the conservation, sustainable use and development of forest genetic resources. -

Book (stand-alone)Technical reportElectronic Monitoring Minimum Standards Harmonization
Workshop report, 10–12 December 2024, San Sebastián, Spain
2025Also available in:
No results found.This document is the report of the second electronic monitoring (EM) implementation workshop on the implementation of EM systems and the development of regional standards that improve fisheries sustainability, compliance, and the monitoring of IUU fishing. The workshop was held from 10 to 12 December 2024 in San Sebastián, Spain, and was organized by the International Seafood Sustainability Foundation (ISSF). It focused on the adoption of minimum EM standards by four tuna RFMOs (IATTC, IOTC, ICCAT and WCPFC) and national-level initiatives, such as capacity development and roadmaps for EM implementation. It also highlighted opportunities for technical harmonization, practical application, and follow-up actions to strengthen EM systems, enhance observer coverage, and support sustainable, transparent, and ecosystem-responsible tuna fisheries management. -
BookletTechnical briefCôte d’Ivoire combler l’écart entre le secteur financier et les pisciculteurs
Dossier d’investissement: amélioration des services financiers pour les éleveurs de tilapia
2025Also available in:
Ce document présente un dossier d’investissement portant sur des méthodes d’élevage de tilapia modifiées et améliorées en Côte d’Ivoire. Il s’appuie sur des informations relatives aux coûts, aux bénéfices et aux résultats de l’intervention financée par FISH4ACP en 2024 et 2025. Le tilapia est la principale espèce piscicole élevée en Côte d’Ivoire, avec une production annuelle d’environ 7 700 tonnes. Il ne représente qu’une petite partie de la production nationale, et la forte demande intérieure fait que le pays demeure fortement dépendant des importations de poisson. Les méthodes d’élevage du tilapia étaient auparavant peu efficaces. Toutefois, grâce aux actions menées par FISH4ACP pour améliorer la qualité et la disponibilité des alevins, renforcer les pratiques d’élevage, et introduire des technologies numériques, les performances financières des exploitations piscicoles ont été améliorées. Cette évolution est démontrée à travers des modèles financiers comparant les comptes d’exploitation des pisciculteurs avant et après l’appui de FISH4ACP. -
BookletTechnical briefGlaciers and mountains
The food, water security and livelihoods nexus
2025Also available in:
No results found.Glaciers are critical lifelines, sustaining rivers that support agriculture, food security and livelihoods for nearly two billion people in mountain and downstream regions. Rising global temperatures are causing glaciers to melt rapidly, reshaping ecosystems, threatening food and water security and increasing disaster risks. This technical brief examines the links between glaciers, agriculture and livelihoods, drawing on evidence from the Andes, Himalaya, Central Asia and beyond. It highlights the potential of sustainable mountain farming to restore ecosystems, conserve resources and build resilience. Launched on International Mountain Day 2025, the brief underscores that protecting glaciers is essential to safeguarding our shared future.
