DocumentOther documentRaising community awareness through participatory video and mobile cinema 2014
Also available in:
Participatory video (PV) is a form of participatory action research which involves a group or a community in the creation of their own educational film as a form of “peer education” for the promotion of exchanges, both amongst themselves and with other communities. The idea behind PV is that making a video being easy and accessible, the process is a great way of bringing people together to explore issues, voice concerns or simply to be creative and engage in informative story telling. -

Book (series)Working paperStatus and trends of inland fisheries in Europe 2025
Also available in:
No results found.Globally, inland capture fisheries continue to play crucial roles, contributing significantly to human health, livelihoods, cultural economies. Despite producing over 12 percent of the world’s fish, they face challenges such as environmental degradation and competition for water, remaining undervalued in decision-making and policy discussions. Inland fisheries remain important within Europe, where they provide food, cultural and recreational benefits and contribute to maintaining biodiversity. Total production reported to FAO in 2021 was 167 187 tonnes (1.47 percent of the global total) and the average annual consumption of inland fisheries products in Europe was 0.24 kg per capita per year. Information on inland fisheries at regional, sub-regional and national levels is also presented on fishing, fisheries and fisheries management from FAO and other sources. Priorities for responsible management are identified, drawing on the evidence from regional and global assessments. These priorities include strengthening the evidence base, including both the status of fish stocks and the social and economic benefits they provide, advancing an ecosystem approach to management through stewardship and care and considering the role of fisheries within wider landscape and catchment planning. Acknowledging the roles and importance of inland capture fisheries is critical to ensuring that inland fisheries continue to support livelihoods and cultural heritage and drive positive transformations.

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.

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of the World's Aquatic Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture 2019
Also available in:
The conservation, sustainable use and development of aquatic genetic resources (AqGR) is critical to the future supply of fish. The State of the World’s Aquatic Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture is the first ever global assessment of these resources, with the scope of this first Report being limited to cultured AqGR and their wild relatives, within national jurisdiction. The Report draws on 92 reports from FAO member countries and five specially commissioned thematic background studies. The reporting countries are responsible for 96 percent of global aquaculture production. The Report sets the context with a review of the state of world’s aquaculture and fisheries and includes overviews of the uses and exchanges of AqGR, the drivers and trends impacting AqGR and the extent of ex situ and in situ conservation efforts. The Report also investigates the roles of stakeholders in AqGR and the levels of activity in research, education, training and extension, and reviews national policies and the levels of regional and international cooperation on AqGR. Finally, needs and challenges are assessed in the context of the findings from the data collected from the countries. The Report represents a snapshot of the present status of AqGR and forms a valuable technical reference document, particularly where it presents standardized key terminology and concepts. -
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.
