    Apoyo a la cooperación regional para la gestión climática en ecosistemas agrícolas con énfasis en agua y suelo - TCP/RLA/3805 2025
    Also available in:
    En RLC no existe una plataforma intergubernamental que cubra específicamente la agricultura y el cambio climático en la región. Ante esto el Gobierno de Chile impulsó la creación de la Plataforma de Acción Climática en Agricultura de América Latina y el Caribe (PLACA), que hasta la fecha cuenta con nueve países miembros y cuatro instituciones asociadas internacionales y la Secretaría está encabezada por la FAO y la Comisión Económica para América Latina y el Caribe (CEPAL). La Alianza por el suelo de América Latina y el Caribe (ASLAC) se estableció en 2013 y es miembro de la Alianza mundial por los suelos (GSP), siendo un mecanismo para desarrollar una asociación sólida e interactiva y garantizar una mayor colaboración y sinergia de esfuerzos entre las partes interesadas. El GSP y sus Alianzas Regionales trabajan en coordinación con una Secretaría Técnica para mejorar la gobernanza del suelo y su gestión sostenible, desde los usuarios en el campo hasta los políticos. La vulnerabilidad de los sistemas alimentarios, amplificada por la amenaza del cambio climático, es el resultado de los avances técnicos y la formulación de políticas que no han avanzado al mismo ritmo en la región y no existe ningún mecanismo que facilite la generación de conocimiento y la conciliación de las necesidades de los diferentes países para cerrar estas brechas.

    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.

    Emissions due to agriculture
    Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018
    2021
    Also available in:

    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.

    The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2020
    Transforming food systems for affordable healthy diets
    2020
    Also available in:
    Updates for many countries have made it possible to estimate hunger in the world with greater accuracy this year. In particular, newly accessible data enabled the revision of the entire series of undernourishment estimates for China back to 2000, resulting in a substantial downward shift of the series of the number of undernourished in the world. Nevertheless, the revision confirms the trend reported in past editions: the number of people affected by hunger globally has been slowly on the rise since 2014. The report also shows that the burden of malnutrition in all its forms continues to be a challenge. There has been some progress for child stunting, low birthweight and exclusive breastfeeding, but at a pace that is still too slow. Childhood overweight is not improving and adult obesity is on the rise in all regions.The report complements the usual assessment of food security and nutrition with projections of what the world may look like in 2030, if trends of the last decade continue. Projections show that the world is not on track to achieve Zero Hunger by 2030 and, despite some progress, most indicators are also not on track to meet global nutrition targets. The food security and nutritional status of the most vulnerable population groups is likely to deteriorate further due to the health and socio economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.The report puts a spotlight on diet quality as a critical link between food security and nutrition. Meeting SDG 2 targets will only be possible if people have enough food to eat and if what they are eating is nutritious and affordable. The report also introduces new analysis of the cost and affordability of healthy diets around the world, by region and in different development contexts. It presents valuations of the health and climate-change costs associated with current food consumption patterns, as well as the potential cost savings if food consumption patterns were to shift towards healthy diets that include sustainability considerations. The report then concludes with a discussion of the policies and strategies to transform food systems to ensure affordable healthy diets, as part of the required efforts to end both hunger and all forms of malnutrition.
