Book (series)Evaluation reportEvaluation of the "Food-loss reduction through improved postharvest handling and value-addition of key fruits and vegetables" project in Ethiopia
Project code: GCP/ETH/088/GER
2021Also available in:
No results found.The “Food-loss reduction through improved postharvest handling and value addition of key fruits and vegetables” project was implemented by FAO Ethiopia over the period 2016–2019. By tackling post-harvest losses, the project addressed one of the major challenges faced by producers. Farmers have adopted project post-harvest management practices, techniques and technologies that have helped to reduce losses and increase food security by boosting income and making more produce available for household consumption. The results will be sustainable because of the economic gains the farmers are seeing and the adaptability of practices and technologies. Studies conducted as part of the project provided evidence of the size and significance of post-harvest losses, which were previously undocumented. Evidence produced contributed to increase institutional attention on post-harvest management. -
BookletEvaluation reportEvaluation of the project “Integrated Country Approach for boosting decent jobs for youth in the agrifood system” Phase III (2019–2023)
Project code: GCP/INT/335/MUL
2024Also available in:
No results found.The evaluation highlights the project's strong alignment with national priorities and FAO objectives, effectively addressing the needs of youth organizations and rural youth. It successfully enhanced the capacity of youth in agrifood systems, including agricultural production, digital and financial literacy, and marketing. While progress was made in developing agricultural value chains, further improvement is needed by adopting a strategic market systems approach. The ICA project fostered multistakeholder engagement, strengthening sustainability through national collaboration. However, challenges remain, particularly in access to finance for young agripreneurs and the need for tailored interventions to support diverse youth needs. The evaluation recommends: i) Adopting a strategic market systems approach for sustained systemic change; ii) Continuing a holistic, multi-stakeholder approach to provide comprehensive support to youth; iii) Implementing a two-stage targeting strategy, starting with youth structures and then focusing on individuals, ensuring inclusion of vulnerable groups; iv) Developing an exit strategy that ensures long-term sustainability in countries not continuing in future project phases; v) Establishing a comprehensive results framework and monitoring system for all ICA country projects. -
Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2021
Transforming food systems for food security, improved nutrition and affordable healthy diets for all
2021In recent years, several major drivers have put the world off track to ending world hunger and malnutrition in all its forms by 2030. The challenges have grown with the COVID-19 pandemic and related containment measures. This report presents the first global assessment of food insecurity and malnutrition for 2020 and offers some indication of what hunger might look like by 2030 in a scenario further complicated by the enduring effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. It also includes new estimates of the cost and affordability of healthy diets, which provide an important link between the food security and nutrition indicators and the analysis of their trends. Altogether, the report highlights the need for a deeper reflection on how to better address the global food security and nutrition situation.To understand how hunger and malnutrition have reached these critical levels, this report draws on the analyses of the past four editions, which have produced a vast, evidence-based body of knowledge of the major drivers behind the recent changes in food security and nutrition. These drivers, which are increasing in frequency and intensity, include conflicts, climate variability and extremes, and economic slowdowns and downturns – all exacerbated by the underlying causes of poverty and very high and persistent levels of inequality. In addition, millions of people around the world suffer from food insecurity and different forms of malnutrition because they cannot afford the cost of healthy diets. From a synthesized understanding of this knowledge, updates and additional analyses are generated to create a holistic view of the combined effects of these drivers, both on each other and on food systems, and how they negatively affect food security and nutrition around the world.In turn, the evidence informs an in-depth look at how to move from silo solutions to integrated food systems solutions. In this regard, the report proposes transformative pathways that specifically address the challenges posed by the major drivers, also highlighting the types of policy and investment portfolios required to transform food systems for food security, improved nutrition, and affordable healthy diets for all. The report observes that, while the pandemic has caused major setbacks, there is much to be learned from the vulnerabilities and inequalities it has laid bare. If taken to heart, these new insights and wisdom can help get the world back on track towards the goal of ending hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition in all its forms.
