No results found.Political upheaval, climate-induced disasters and high food prices are driving a worsening humanitarian crisis in Bangladesh, with nearly 16 million people facing high acute food insecurity. Over 1 million refugees are reliant on humanitarian aid, including 120 000 new arrivals this year. In 2024, Cyclone Remal in May and severe monsoon rains and flash floods in June–September further disrupted livelihoods and food security in refugee camps. An effective humanitarian response in 2025 must prioritize agricultural livelihoods to help both refugee and host communities break free from reliance on food aid. This document provides a summary of the planned response and funding requirements of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations within the framework of the 2025 Rohingya Humanitarian Crisis Joint Response Plan for Bangladesh. -

No results found.Nearly 1 million Rohingya refugees live in Cox’s Bazar, the world’s largest refugee camp, and are entirely dependent on humanitarian assistance. Already densely populated and affected by chronic poverty and climatic shocks, the Bangladeshi host community faces their own food security and livelihood challenges. As limited resources are overwhelmed and ecosystems increasingly come under strain, cost-effective emergency agricultural assistance is needed to enable host and refugee communities to meet their food needs themselves. For example, refugee families can secure yields more than double the value of every dollar FAO invests in vegetable production inputs. -

No results found.Nearly 1 million Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh’s Cox’s Bazar are entirely dependent on humanitarian aid to meet their basic food needs. In 2023, reduced food rations and devastating cyclones further compromised food security within the refugee camps, leading to a decline in refugees’ daily food consumption. Continued support for both the Rohingya and Bangladeshi communities in Cox’s Bazar is crucial to address their urgent food security challenges. By enhancing agricultural practices and supporting local livelihoods, we can help ensure a more resilient and food-secure future for Rohingya refugees and their host communities. This document provides an overview of FAO's requirements within the framework of the Joint Response Plan for the Rohingya Humanitarian Crisis in Bangladesh.

After shedding light on the nature of the challenges that agriculture and food systems are facing now and throughout the 21st century, the study provides insights into what is at stake and what needs to be done. “Business as usual” is not an option. Major transformations in agricultural systems, rural economies, and natural resources management are necessary.

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.
