    Panorama da Segurança Alimentar e Nutricional na América Latina e no Caribe 2017

    Esta publicação é o primeiro passo em uma série de esforços coordenados entre a FAO e a OMS para acabar com a fome, alcançar a segurança alimentar, melhorar a nutrição e promover a agricultura sustentável, de modo que nossos Estados-Membros possam alcançar o Objetivo 2 dos ODS. Esperamos que este esforço também sirva de motivação para que os governos, as agências internacionais de desenvolvimento, os doadores, o setor privado e sociedade civil coordenem medidas para acabar com a fome e a desnut rição. Este texto é o resumo executivo da edição 2016 do Panorama da Segurança Alimentar e Nutricional na América Latina e no Caribe, uma publicação anual preparada pelo Escritório Regional para América Latina e o Caribe da Organização das Nações Unidas para a Alimentação e a Agricultura (FAO) e do Escritório Organização Pan-americana da Saúde (OPAS)/Escritório Regional para as Américas da Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS). Para fins de comunicação e divulgação, foram removidos do texto todas a s referências e citações bibliográficas, que podem ser encontradas no documento completo Panorama (em espanhol).

    Avances legislativos sobre prevención y reducción de pérdidas y desperdicios de alimentos en América Latina y el Caribe 2021

    No results found.

    Prevenir y reducir las pérdidas y desperdicios de alimentos es esencial para avanzar en la promoción de sistemas alimentarios sostenibles y lograr los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible de la Agenda 2030. En particular, la meta 12.3 que busca reducir a la mitad las pérdidas y desperdicios de alimentos en todas las fases de la cadena productiva al año 2030. Entre las distintas estrategias adoptadas para hacer frente a esta situación, los esfuerzos normativos desplegados por los Estados revisten la mayor importancia. Con el objeto de contribuir a estos fines, el presente estudio legislativo, relativo a los avances legislativos sobre prevención y reducción de pérdidas y desperdicios de alimentos en América Latina y el Caribe, permitió constituir un repertorio regional de leyes y proyectos de ley presentados sobre la materia. El análisis de estos textos normativos ha permitido establecer un conjunto de 18 criterios de clasificación en los que se pueden organizar las diversas medidas adoptadas. Tales criterios se desarrollan a fondo en el estudio y se ilustran mediante ejemplos extraídos de la propia normativa estudiada. La información obtenida permitió sugerir recomendaciones para continuar avanzando en la lucha contra las pérdidas y desperdicios de alimentos desde el ámbito normativo.

    The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2025
    Addressing high food price inflation for food security and nutrition
    2025
    While 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.
