Book (series)FlagshipL'tat de l'inscurit alimentaire dans le monde 2000 2000L'tat de l'inscurit alimentaire dans le monde (SOFI) a t cr pour suivre les progrs accomplis vers l'limination de cet obstacle majeur la ralisation des droits de l'homme, la qualit de la vie et la dignit. Sa cration a t dcide l'occasion du Sommet mondial de l'alimentation tenu en 1996 Rome, o les dirigeants de 186 pays se sont engags rduire de moiti le nombre des personnes qui ont faim dans le monde d'ici 2015. Dans cette deuxime dition, nous introduisons un nouvel outil pour me surer la gravit du besoin: la gravit de la faim. Il s'agit d'une mesure du dficit alimentaire par personne au sein de la population sous-alimente de chaque pays. L'unit de mesure est la kilocalorie et cet outil vise dterminer avec prcision le dficit alimentaire quotidien des sous-aliments. La plupart des pays dans lesquels la gravit de la faim est extrme (dficit alimentaire suprieur 300 kilocalories par personne et par jour) sont des pays d'Afrique. Il y en a aussi au Proche-Orient (Afghanista n), dans les Carabes (Hati) et en Asie (Bangladesh, Rpublique populaire dmocratique de Core et Mongolie). Nombre de ces pays sont victimes de flaux tels que conflits ou catastrophes naturelles rcurrentes. Ils ont besoin d'une aide massive pour sortir de leur marasme actuel caractris par la misre et une trs grave inscurit alimentaire.

L'état de l'insécurité alimentaire dans le monde
2001Cette troisime dition de L'tat de l'inscurit alimentaire dans le monde rend compte des efforts dploys par la communaut mondiale et les diffrents pays afin d'atteindre l'objectif que s'est fix le Sommet mondial de l'alimentation en 1996: rduire de moiti le nombre de personnes sous-alimentes dans le monde pour 2015 au plus tard. Les auteurs du Plan d'action du Sommet ont pens que, pour avancer le plus vite possible vers cet objectif, il faudrait que les pays se concentrent sur trois questions: Qui sont ceux qui souffrent d'inscurit alimentaire? O vivent-ils? Pourquoi souffrent-ils d'inscurit alimentaire? Ces trois questions constituent le thme de la premire section du rapport de cette anne, intitule La sous-alimentation dans le monde. Cette section donne les estimations les plus rcentes faites par la FAO de la prvalence de la sous-alimentation et du nombre absolu de personnes sous-alimentes dans 125 pays pour la priode 1997-1999. En outre, elle compare ces estimations rcentes avec ce lles correspondant la priode de base du Sommet, c'est--dire 1990-1992, ce qui permet de se faire une ide des rsultats obtenus par les diffrents pays au cours de la dernire dcennie, et fournit des renseignements actualiss importants pour le prochain Sommet mondial de l'alimentation: cinq ans aprs. Cette section examine aussi certains des facteurs associs une rduction ou une augmentation importantes de la sous-alimentation l'chelle nationale. Enfin, elle aborde le probleme de voir si l'accs l' alimentation a tendance s'galiser l'intrieur des pays et au niveau international. -

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.

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. -
Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2021
Transforming food systems for food security, improved nutrition and affordable healthy diets for all
2021In recent years, several major drivers have put the world off track to ending world hunger and malnutrition in all its forms by 2030. The challenges have grown with the COVID-19 pandemic and related containment measures. This report presents the first global assessment of food insecurity and malnutrition for 2020 and offers some indication of what hunger might look like by 2030 in a scenario further complicated by the enduring effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. It also includes new estimates of the cost and affordability of healthy diets, which provide an important link between the food security and nutrition indicators and the analysis of their trends. Altogether, the report highlights the need for a deeper reflection on how to better address the global food security and nutrition situation.To understand how hunger and malnutrition have reached these critical levels, this report draws on the analyses of the past four editions, which have produced a vast, evidence-based body of knowledge of the major drivers behind the recent changes in food security and nutrition. These drivers, which are increasing in frequency and intensity, include conflicts, climate variability and extremes, and economic slowdowns and downturns – all exacerbated by the underlying causes of poverty and very high and persistent levels of inequality. In addition, millions of people around the world suffer from food insecurity and different forms of malnutrition because they cannot afford the cost of healthy diets. From a synthesized understanding of this knowledge, updates and additional analyses are generated to create a holistic view of the combined effects of these drivers, both on each other and on food systems, and how they negatively affect food security and nutrition around the world.In turn, the evidence informs an in-depth look at how to move from silo solutions to integrated food systems solutions. In this regard, the report proposes transformative pathways that specifically address the challenges posed by the major drivers, also highlighting the types of policy and investment portfolios required to transform food systems for food security, improved nutrition, and affordable healthy diets for all. The report observes that, while the pandemic has caused major setbacks, there is much to be learned from the vulnerabilities and inequalities it has laid bare. If taken to heart, these new insights and wisdom can help get the world back on track towards the goal of ending hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition in all its forms.
