DocumentEvaluation reportEvaluación independiente del funcionamiento de la Convención Internacional de Protección Fitosanitaria y sus mecanismos institucionales 2007La Convención Internacional de Protección Fitosanitaria (CIPF) es un tratado internacional sobre sanidad vegetal, que en septiembre de 2007 contaba con la adhesión de 165 gobiernos. La FAO proporciona la Secretaría de la CIPF y el gobierno de la Convención corresponde a la Comisión de Medidas Fitosanitarias (CMF). En el acuerdo de la Organización Mundial del Comercio (OMC) sobre materias sanitarias y fitosanitarias (MSF) se reconoce la función que desempeña la CIPF como organización internaciona l para el establecimiento de normas con objeto de garantizar que las medidas fitosanitarias no se utilicen para crear obstáculos no justificados al comercio. Como consecuencia de ello, se adoptaron medidas para adaptar la Convención a las nuevas realidades. El resultado fue la elaboración de un texto revisado que ampliaba el alcance y el mandato de la CIPF a fin de incluir el establecimiento de normas, el fomento de la prestación de asistencia técnica y el examen de las preocupaciones ambientale s. El texto revisado de la CIPF fue aprobado en 1997 y entró en vigor en octubre de 2005

BookletCorporate general interestConvención Internacional de Protección Fitosanitaria (1997) 2025La Convención Internacional de Protección Fitosanitaria (CIPF) establece directrices para la protección global de la sanidad vegetal frente a las plagas. Su propósito es guiar a las 185 organizaciones nacionales de protección fitosanitaria de los países miembros, así como a los responsables de la formulación de políticas, la toma de decisiones y la gestión a nivel nacional. El objetivo principal de la Convención es fomentar la cooperación internacional en la protección de las plantas, los productos agrícolas y los recursos naturales contra las plagas. Además, busca contribuir al logro de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible, especialmente en la erradicación de la pobreza y el hambre, la protección del medio ambiente frente al cambio climático y la promoción de un comercio internacional seguro.

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2020
Transforming food systems for affordable healthy diets
2020Updates for many countries have made it possible to estimate hunger in the world with greater accuracy this year. In particular, newly accessible data enabled the revision of the entire series of undernourishment estimates for China back to 2000, resulting in a substantial downward shift of the series of the number of undernourished in the world. Nevertheless, the revision confirms the trend reported in past editions: the number of people affected by hunger globally has been slowly on the rise since 2014. The report also shows that the burden of malnutrition in all its forms continues to be a challenge. There has been some progress for child stunting, low birthweight and exclusive breastfeeding, but at a pace that is still too slow. Childhood overweight is not improving and adult obesity is on the rise in all regions.The report complements the usual assessment of food security and nutrition with projections of what the world may look like in 2030, if trends of the last decade continue. Projections show that the world is not on track to achieve Zero Hunger by 2030 and, despite some progress, most indicators are also not on track to meet global nutrition targets. The food security and nutritional status of the most vulnerable population groups is likely to deteriorate further due to the health and socio economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.The report puts a spotlight on diet quality as a critical link between food security and nutrition. Meeting SDG 2 targets will only be possible if people have enough food to eat and if what they are eating is nutritious and affordable. The report also introduces new analysis of the cost and affordability of healthy diets around the world, by region and in different development contexts. It presents valuations of the health and climate-change costs associated with current food consumption patterns, as well as the potential cost savings if food consumption patterns were to shift towards healthy diets that include sustainability considerations. The report then concludes with a discussion of the policies and strategies to transform food systems to ensure affordable healthy diets, as part of the required efforts to end both hunger and all forms of malnutrition. -
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. -
