Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetHigh-profileMyanmar | Revised humanitarian response (May–December 2020)
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)
2020Also available in:
No results found.The humanitarian situation in Myanmar is characterized by a complex combination of vulnerability to natural disasters, food insecurity, malnutrition, armed conflict, inter-communal tensions, displacement, trafficking and perilous migration. So far, the Yangon/Bago metropolitan region of Myanmar has been most affected by COVID-19, while 10 out of 15 states and regions have reported cases. In case of a major surge in numbers, the health system would be quickly overloaded. On 13 March 2020, the Government set up the Central Committee on Prevention, Control and Treatment of Coronavirus Disease, and responded with a wide range of urgent and essential measures to prevent the spread of the virus. While food production does not yet seem to have been impacted, rural livelihoods are facing increasing financial pressure in the midst of decreasing incomes and remittances as the planting season begins. In the framework of the Global Humanitarian Response Plan for COVID-19, FAO has revised its humanitarian response for 2020 to mitigate the effects of the pandemic and address the needs of the most vulnerable households.

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.
