Book (stand-alone)GuidelineTowards the implementation of the SSF Guidelines. Proceedings of the Workshop on the Development of a Global Assistance Programme in Support of the Implementation of the Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries in the Context of Food Security and Poverty Eradication, 8-11 December 2014, Rome, Italy 2015
Also available in:
No results found.Following the endorsement of the SSF Guidelines by the FAO Committee on Fisheries (COFI) in June 2014, FAO is now engaging in implementation planning through a participatory process and in accordance with COFI recommendations. COFI proposed the establishment of an SSF Guidelines Global Assistance Programme (GAP) and an outline of this GAP was presented to COFI The workshop was an important step in terms of guidance for consolidating the overall implementation approach for the SSF Guidelines. It is evident that there is an overall willingness to work towards a coherent, coordinated implementation by all stakeholders, based on the guiding principles of the SSF Guidelines themselves. It was confirmed that FAO has an important role to play in terms of supporting and facilitating the implementation, but also in providing technical support and project implementation, based on demand. FAO is looking forward to continuing working on the development of the GAP framework, based on commitment and professionalism and in close collaboration with partners and stakeholders.

Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureFisheries and the BBNJ Agreement 2025
Also available in:
No results found.Due to the impact the BBNJ Agreement could have on the fisheries sector, and following COFI 36 requesting FAO to raise awareness, for all relevant stakeholders including Members and RFBs, on the implications of the BBNJ Agreement for the fisheries and aquaculture sector, and support Members as appropriate in the ratification and implementation of the Agreement, FAO seeks to inform and guide its members on the relevance, likely impacts and benefits offered by the agreement. The aim is to develop a resource product that speaks directly to FAO Members, and their authorities with competence for the management and conservation of fisheries. The Fact Sheet presented is an interim product with the objective to introduce the work in progress on the report at the FAO side event to take place during the BBNJ Preparatory Commission (PrepCom2, New York, 18-29 August 2025) by the FAO Delegation, with particular emphasis on the participation of RFB Secretariats. -
Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2025
Addressing high food price inflation for food security and nutrition
2025While some progress and recovery have been made in recent years, the world is still above pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels and far from eradicating hunger and food insecurity by 2030 (SDG Target 2.1). Similarly, despite some progress in the global nutrition targets, the world is not on track to achieve SDG Target 2.2. Among other factors, persistent food price inflation has slowed this momentum.The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2025 highlights how elevated inflation in many countries has undermined purchasing power and, especially among low-income populations, access to healthy diets. The report documents how high food price inflation is associated with increases in food insecurity and child malnutrition. Vulnerable groups, including low-income households, women, and rural communities, can be particularly affected by food price inflation, risking setbacks in the fight against hunger and malnutrition.In response to these challenges and to prevent future price shocks, the report examines policy measures adopted by countries, and outlines what is necessary going forwards. It stresses the importance of coherent implementation of fiscal and monetary policies to stabilize markets, promote open and resilient trade, and protect vulnerable populations. Additionally, it calls for better data systems and sustained investment in resilient agrifood systems to build long-term food security and nutrition. These coordinated actions are vital to reignite progress towards ending hunger and malnutrition by 2030. -
Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2024
Financing to end hunger, food insecurity and malnutrition in all its forms
2024Six years from 2030, hunger and food insecurity trends are not yet moving in the right direction to end hunger and food insecurity (SDG Target 2.1) by 2030. The indicators of progress towards global nutrition targets similarly show that the world is not on track to eliminate all forms of malnutrition (SDG Target 2.2). Billions of people still lack access to nutritious, safe and sufficient food. Nevertheless, progress in many countries provides hope of the possibility of getting back on track towards hunger and malnutrition eradication. Implementing the policies, investments and legislation needed to revert the current trends of hunger, food insecurity and malnutrition requires proper financing for food security and nutrition. Despite a broad agreement on the urgent need to increase financing for food security and nutrition, the same cannot be said for a common understanding regarding how this financing should be defined and tracked. The report provides a long-awaited definition of financing for food security and nutrition and guidance for its implementation. There are recommendations regarding the efficient use of innovative financing tools and reforms to the food security and nutrition financing architecture. Establishing a common definition of financing for food security and nutrition, and methods for its tracking, measurement and implementation, is an important first step towards sustainably increasing the financing flows needed to end hunger, food insecurity and all forms of malnutrition, and to ensure access to healthy diets for all, today and tomorrow.
