Book (stand-alone)Second Global Plan of Action for Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture 2011The Second Global Plan of Action for Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture was adopted by the FAO Council at its 143rd Session in 2011. It updates the Global Plan of Action for Conservation and Sustainable Utilization of Plant Genetic Resources which was adopted at the Fourth International Technical Conference on Plant Genetic Resources held in Leipzig in 1996. The Second Global Plan of Action addresses new challenges, such as climate change and food insecurity, as well as novel opportunities, including information, communication and molecular methodologies. It contains 18 priority activities organized in four main groups: In situ conservation and management; Ex situ conservation; Sustainable use; and Building sustainable institutional and human capacities.

Book (stand-alone)Global plan of action for the conservation, sustainable use and development of forest genetic resources 2014Forest genetic resources (FGR) are the heritable materials maintained within and among tree and other woody plant species that are of actual or potential economic, environmental, scientific or societal value. They are crucial to the adaptation and protection of our ecosystems, landscapes and production systems, yet are subject to increasing pressures and unsustainable use. At its 11th session in June 2007, the Commission on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture emphasized the urgent need to conserve and sustainably use FGR, and included a report on The State of the World’s Forest Genetic Resources in its Multi-Year Programme of Work. On the basis of the information and knowledge compiled by FAO for The State of World’s Forest Genetic Resources, the Commission developed the Global Plan of Action for the Conservation, Sustainable Use and Development of Forest Genetic Resources , adopted by the FAO Conference at its 38th session in June 2013. This Global Plan of Action identifies 27 strategic priorities grouped into 4 areas: 1) improving the availability of, and access to, information on FGR; 2) conservation of FGR (in situ and ex situ); 3) sustainable use, development and management of FGR; 4) policies, institutions and capacity-building.Implementation of the Global Plan of Action will strengthen the sustainability of the management of FGR while contributing towards the Millennium Development Goals, the post-2015 agenda and the Aichi Biodiversity Targets. While primary res ponsibility for implementation lies with governments, FAO has a strong commitment to supporting countries in these efforts, working with governments and other partners at the national, regional and international levels and in line with FAO’s Reviewed Strategic Framework approved by its Member States. Indeed, the Global Plan of Action is an integral part of FAO’s efforts to realize its Strategic Objective 2, to “increase and improve provision of goods and services from agriculture, forestry and f isheries in a sustainable manner."

Book (stand-alone)Compte rendu synthétique du deuxiéme plan d'action mondial pour les ressources phytogénétiques pour l'alimentation et l'agriculture 2012Le Conseil de la FAO a adopté le Deuxième Plan d’action mondial pour les ressources phytogénétiques pour l’alimentation et l’agriculture lors de sa 143ème session en 2011. Il s’agit de la mise à jour du Plan d’action mondial pour la conservation et l’utilisation durable des ressources phytogénétiques qui avait été adopté à la quatrième Conférence technique internationale sur les ressources phytogénétiques organisée à Leipzig en 1996. Le Deuxième Plan d’action mondial répond à de nouveaux défis, tels que le changement climatique et l’insécurité alimentaire, ainsi qu’à de nouvelles opportunités, notamment les méthodologies d’information, de communication et de biologie moléculaire. Il contient 18 activités prioritaires classées en quatre grands groupes: Conservation et gestion in situ; Conservation ex situ; Utilisation durable; et Renforcement durable des capacités institutionnelles et humaines.
