ProjectProgramme / project reportMyanmar Community Livelihood Assistance Project : Boosting Food Production Capacity to Address Food Security and Resilient Livelihoods in Crisis-Affected Regions/States of Myanmar
Environmental and Social Management Framework
2024Also available in:
The World Bank and FAO are collaborating on the Myanmar Community Livelihood Assistance Project to enhance access to emergency aid, basic services, and livelihood opportunities for vulnerable communities. FAO focuses on rehabilitating agriculture by offering technical, material, and financial support to farmers in conflict-affected areas. The project will provide agricultural inputs, training, and cash transfers to boost crop, livestock, and fisheries productivity across 225 villages in six regions of Myanmar. An Environmental and Social Management Framework (ESMF) has been established to address risks such as waste, water contamination, and the exclusion of vulnerable groups. Mitigation measures align with World Bank, FAO, and Myanmar’s regulations and include guidelines on agricultural practices, labor, land use, and community health. A Stakeholder Engagement Plan and Grievance Redress Mechanism are also part of the framework. -

Project concept note
2024Also available in:
No results found.This project proposes a conflict-sensitive, integrated programme aimed at building resilience in Myanmar’s most affected and vulnerable communities facing multiple shocks, including conflict, climate risks, and economic crises. The programme will focus on Chin, Kayah, Kayin, Rakhine, and Sagaing states, where food security and agricultural livelihoods are most severely impacted. Grounded in participatory context analysis, interventions will be designed to address the specific vulnerabilities and needs of displaced, returnee, and host populations. FAO’s efforts will include rehabilitating the agricultural sector through both short- and long-term assistance, utilizing a Cash Plus modality that combines cash transfers with agricultural inputs and technical support. By promoting community-based recovery, disaster risk management, and sustainable agricultural practices, the programme seeks to reduce dependency on humanitarian aid and foster long-term development and peace. Through this integrated approach across the Humanitarian-Development-Peace Nexus, FAO aims to improve food security, enhance social cohesion, and increase resilience to multiple shocks, ultimately contributing to the recovery and stability of conflict-affected communities. -

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.

Book (stand-alone)Technical bookRussian Federation: Meat sector review
Country highlights prepared under the FAO/EBRD Cooperation
2014Also available in:
World food demand has seen massive changes, including a shift from staple foods to animal proteins and vegetable oils. In the short to medium term, this trend in global food demand will continue. There will be an increased demand for vegetable oils, meat, sugar, dairy products and livestock feed made from coarse grains and oilseed meals. There are numerous mid-term forecasts for the Russian Federation’s meat sector. Most of them agree on the following trends: (i) the consumption of poultry and p ork meat will increase; (ii) the consumption of beef will decrease or stabilize; and (iii) the Russian Federation will remain a net importer of meat on the world market. According to OECD and FAO projections, meat imports from the Russian Federation will decrease from 3 to 1.3 million tonnes, owing to an anticipated growth in domestic chicken meat and pork production. The country’s share in global meat imports is anticipated to decrease from 12 percent in 2006–2010, to 4 percent in 2021. While t he Russian Federation will continue to play an important role in the international meat market, it will fall from its position as the largest meat importing country in 2006–2010 to the fourth largest global meat importer by 2021, behind Japan, sub-Saharan African countries, and Saudi Arabia. -
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.
