Book (stand-alone)NewsletterDimitra Bulletin no 14, 2008. Femmes rurales et développement.
Radios rurales et communication participative.
2008Also available in:
Parmi les expériences qui sont partagées dans ce bulletin, nous souhaitons mettre en valeur le travail réalisé par Dimitra et ses partenaires en République démocratique du Congo dans le domaine des radios rurales et de la communication participative. Un projet de radio rurale et de clubs d'écoute est actuellement conduit dans la Province du Sud-Kivu, avec l'ONG SAMWAKI et la GTZ-Santé, et suscite beaucoup d'intérêt. Le partage des radios solaires entre les familles par le bia is des femmes qui sont membres des clubs d'écoute, et l'élaboration de messages d'information avec les populations rurales, concrétisent le rôle des femmes et des hommes en tant qu'acteurs de leur propre développement. -

Femmes rurales, dynamisation des réseaux et lutte contre le VIH-SIDA dans les zones rurales. Atelier FAO/CTA, juin 2005.
2005Also available in:
Dimitra est un projet d'information et de communication visant à autonomiser les populations rurales en développant leurs capacités et en facilitant leur accès à l'information. Il s'agit là d'outils précieux dans la lutte contre la faim et la pauvreté et dans le combat mené en faveur de l'égalité hommes-femmes. Le projet Dimitra collabore avec des partenaires locaux en Afrique et au Proche- Orient. Il permet aux femmes rurales, par l'intermédiaire de leurs associations et de leur s organisations de base, de faire entendre leur voix. Les technologies de l'information et de la communication, tant traditionnelles que modernes, sont utilisées pour encourager la mise en réseau et l'échange d'information. -

Femmes rurales, Genre et Développement
2009Also available in:
En cette fin d’année 2009, malgré les engagements internationaux pris avec les Objectifs du Millénaire pour le Développement, plus d’un milliard de personnes ont faim et 70% des femmes et des hommes qui souffrent de la faim vivent en milieu rural. Ces résultats alarmants conduisent inévitablement à un questionnement sur l’efficacité des politiques de développement mises en oeuvre et à la volonté d’être encore plus tenaces dans nos actions de communication participatives. Voic i donc, dans les tourments de la crise financière et économique qui affecte très gravement tous les pays, le Bulletin Dimitra n° 17.

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food and Agriculture 2019
Moving forward on food loss and waste reduction
2019The need to reduce food loss and waste is firmly embedded in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Food loss and waste reduction is considered important for improving food security and nutrition, promoting environmental sustainability and lowering production costs. However, efforts to reduce food loss and waste will only be effective if informed by a solid understanding of the problem. This report provides new estimates of the percentage of the world’s food lost from production up to the retail level. The report also finds a vast diversity in existing estimates of losses, even for the same commodities and for the same stages in the supply chain. Clearly identifying and understanding critical loss points in specific supply chains – where considerable potential exists for reducing food losses – is crucial to deciding on appropriate measures. The report provides some guiding principles for interventions based on the objectives being pursued through food loss and waste reductions, be they in improved economic efficiency, food security and nutrition, or environmental sustainability. -
Book (series)Technical studyLatin America and the Caribbean - Regional Overview of Food Security and Nutrition 2023
Statistics and trends
2023Also available in:
The 2023 edition of the Regional Overview of Food Security and Nutrition in Latin America and the Caribbean presents an update of the data and trends in food security and nutrition in recent years. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the climate crisis and the conflict in Ukraine, as well as the economic slowdown, rising food inflation and income inequality have had an impact on regional figures. The most recent data shows that, between 2021 and 2022, progress was made in reducing hunger and food insecurity in Latin America and the Caribbean. However, the progress achieved is far from the targets established to meet SDG 2 of ending hunger. In addition, one in five people in the region cannot access a healthy diet and malnutrition in all its forms, including child stunting, micronutrient deficiencies and obesity continue to be a major challenge. -
Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2023
Urbanization, agrifood systems transformation and healthy diets across the rural–urban continuum
2023This report provides an update on global progress towards the targets of ending hunger (SDG Target 2.1) and all forms of malnutrition (SDG Target 2.2) and estimates on the number of people who are unable to afford a healthy diet. Since its 2017 edition, this report has repeatedly highlighted that the intensification and interaction of conflict, climate extremes and economic slowdowns and downturns, combined with highly unaffordable nutritious foods and growing inequality, are pushing us off track to meet the SDG 2 targets. However, other important megatrends must also be factored into the analysis to fully understand the challenges and opportunities for meeting the SDG 2 targets. One such megatrend, and the focus of this year’s report, is urbanization. New evidence shows that food purchases in some countries are no longer high only among urban households but also among rural households. Consumption of highly processed foods is also increasing in peri-urban and rural areas of some countries. These changes are affecting people’s food security and nutrition in ways that differ depending on where they live across the rural–urban continuum. This timely and relevant theme is aligned with the United Nations General Assembly-endorsed New Urban Agenda, and the report provides recommendations on the policies, investments and actions needed to address the challenges of agrifood systems transformation under urbanization and to enable opportunities for ensuring access to affordable healthy diets for everyone.
