BookletTechnical studyPublic expenditure analysis for climate change adaptation and mitigation in the agriculture sector: a case study of Kenya
Experiences of integrating agriculture in sectoral and national adaptation planning processes
2021Also available in:
No results found.This document presents a proposed methodology for public expenditure review and analysis for climate change adaptation and mitigation in the agriculture sector (PERCC) and its application to a case study of Kenya. The document starts by explaining the basic methodological concepts, classification, and labeling of public expenditures that allow calculating spending in agriculture-related to climate change adaptation and mitigation. Next, the document applies the methodology to public expenditures in Kenya to analyse how agricultural spending policies help, or hinder, Kenya’s climate change adaptation and mitigation. -
Book (series)Working paperPublic expenditure analysis for climate change adaptation and mitigation in the agricultural sector – A case study of Uganda 2021
Also available in:
No results found.This paper presents a methodology for public expenditure review and analysis for climate change adaptation and mitigation in the agricultural sector. It outlines the basic methodological concepts, including the classification of public expenditures in the context of their links to climate change adaptation and mitigation. It also illustrates how such analysis can usefully contribute to policy decision making to better achieve the climate change adaptation and mitigation goals using the case study of Uganda. The proposed classification allows for analysing the level and the composition of public expenditures that influence adaptation capacity of the sector to climate change, and actions that increase or decrease greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) in agriculture. This, in turn, allows for assessing whether the sector is stimulated in a way that allows achieving a country’s climate change adaptation and mitigation objectives and form a basis for further evaluation of the effectiveness of individual measures in reaching these objectives. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureClimate change mitigation and harvested wood products: Lessons learned from three case studies in Asia and the Pacific 2022
Also available in:
No results found.Harvested wood products (HWP) from sustainably managed forests can store carbon, increase the availability of biomass for the production of biofuels and substitute for more resource intensive products. Sustainable production of HWPs can contribute to multiple Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The length of time carbon is stored in HWPs can be increased through re-use and recycling. Modeled scenarios suggest that increased re-use and recycling of sawnwood and paper could substantially increase carbon stocks. Carbon stocks in HWPs can also be increased through production of longer-lived products. Modeled scenarios, using data from India, suggest that, without changing harvest levels, HWPs in India can store an additional 151 million tonnes of carbon (i.e., an increase of 12 percent) if wood use was shifted from wood pulp based products to solid wood products. Scenarios run using data from Papua New Guinea suggest a potential increase in carbon stocks of up to 23.1 percent from a 30 percent increase in sustainable production of HWPs. Increased data precision can support improved estimates of the carbon stocks in HWPs. Computer simulations based on data from Viet Nam confirm the importance of high-quality data to inform effective decision-making.

DocumentOther document中国的粮食和农业生物学多样性国家报告 2019
Also available in:
No results found.These country reports are prepared as a contribution to the FAO publication, The State of the World’s Biodiversity for Food and Agriculture. The preparation of Country Reports provided an overview of existing information gaps and helped to establish a baseline information on biodiversity for food and agriculture. They also provided information on the role of biodiversity for food and agriculture in the provision of multiple ecosystem services. These country reports helped to address the following questions: • What is the state of the conservation and use of biodiversity for food security and nutrition, ecosystem services and sustainability? • What trends can be identified in the conservation and use of biodiversity for food and agriculture and in the effects of major drivers of change? • How can conservation and use of biodiversity for food and agriculture be improved and the contributions of biodiversity to food security and nutrition, ecosystem services, sustainability and the improvement of livelihoods of farmers, pastoralists, forest dwellers and fisher folk be enhanced? -
Book (stand-alone)General interest book仝毖谄谏 70 年 (1945 年-2015 年) 2015本书讲述了粮农组织七十年的历史、其主要人物及奋斗历程。我们对粮农组织档案进行了挖掘，整理出未曾发表过的黑白图像，从而展现出描绘本组织初年的那些令人回味的画面组合。本书还记录了粮农组织取得的十大成就，例如根除牛瘟，确保全球生物多样性所必需的协议《植物遗传资源条约》，对保护海洋生态系统至关重要的《负责任渔业行为守则》等。粮农组织在未来几年面临的重大挑战也得到了阐述并归纳为两大主题：消除饥饿和营养不良，以及我们要采取什么行动来应对气候变化。本出版物通过把读者带到粮农组织区域办事处章节以了解各办事处的区域举措。粮农组织作为一个中立论坛每年举办许多会议，我们谨向您敞开粮农组织驻罗马总部的大门，让您作一次虚拟观光，徜徉于本组织织不同国家厅的各个角落。本书浅显易懂、设计简明且具有吸引力，适合于任何读者。

Book (series)FAO journal恢复地球—未来十年
Unasylva 252 - 2020年1月第71卷
2022本期Unasylva杂志旨在展示森林景观恢复（FLR）的机会和进展，这些机会和进展能扩大恢复的规模，以实现"波恩挑战"及其他国家和国际承诺（可持续发展目标（SDGs），《生物多样性公约》(CBD）2020年后议程、《联合国防治荒漠化公约》（UNCCD）土地退化零增长、《联合国气候变化框架公约》（UNFCCC）下的《巴黎协定》），并满足2021-2030年联合国生态系统恢复十年的需求。 杂志涉及与各受众相关的主题：i) 与所谓的 "一切照旧 "做法不同的旗舰恢复倡议，这些旗舰倡议能输送更多的资金，更好地赋予当地利益相关者权力，并通过合作伙伴联盟提供更多的技术援助；ii) 可以扩展森林景观恢复的技术进步，由于不同的原因（低成本、适应性、与许多生态系统和环境的相关性、易于实施等），这些技术进步很有可能成为主流。iii) 利于恢复的因素，即协调、政策环境、资源、知识和能力，这些因素都为在当地采取行动创造了有利条件。
