ProjectFactsheetSoutien aux investissements responsables dans l’agriculture et les systèmes alimentaires - GCP/GLO/886/MUL 2022
Also available in:
No results found.Malgré le rôle central de l’agriculture dans les pays en développement, la part de l’agriculture dans les investissements privés et publics reste faible et doit considérablement augmenter pour pouvoir relever les deux défis les plus urgents de notre époque: l’éradication de la faim et de la pauvreté. Toutefois, tous les types d’investissements ne sont pas bénéfiques et sans planification stratégique ni hiérarchisation, les investissements ne contribueront probablement que peu, voire pas du tout, au développement durable. L’objectif du projet, de portée mondiale avec des applications pratiques dans 15 pays, était de faire progresser les investissements responsables dans l’agriculture (IRA) dans les États Membres, en s’appuyant sur les Principes pour un investissement responsable dans l’agriculture et les systèmes alimentaires du Comité de la sécurité alimentaire mondiale ( Principes CSA IRA ). Il s’agissait notamment d’apporter un soutien à trois principaux groupes de parties prenantes (décideurs politiques, personnel gouvernemental et parlementaires; petits producteurs et leurs organisations; entreprises du secteur privé) dans leurs efforts pour promouvoir des investissements agricoles responsables et de mettre au point un certain nombre d’outils d’analyse des capacités et de planification stratégique visant à stimuler et à soutenir les investissements des jeunes agripreneurs. -

ProjectFactsheetRenforcer les capacités à recueillir, interpréter et utiliser l’indicateur de diversité alimentaire minimale chez les femmes pour transformer les politiques relatives aux systèmes agroalimentaires - GCP/GLO/1027/GER 2025
Also available in:
Les données alimentaires sont essentielles pour comprendre les causes de la malnutrition et orienter les mesures à prendre. L’un des indicateurs qui permet de mesurer l’alimentation est la diversité alimentaire minimale chez les femmes (DAM-F), outil simple, économique et validé, déjà largement utilisé. Les composantes 1 et 2 du présent projet ont été conçues pour accroître l’utilisation de la DAMF, renforcer au niveau mondial la capacité à l’utiliser et générer des données. La composante 3 a permis de renforcer, dans les pays, la capacité des parties prenantes, en particulier des acteurs publics nationaux et infranationaux et des parlementaires, à utiliser ces données et à intégrer la nutrition dans les politiques et programmes agroalimentaires nationaux.

Book (series)Technical studyPacific oyster farming
A practical manual
2024Also available in:
No results found.The purpose of this manual is to give the reader a foundation of practical knowledge regarding all aspects of Pacific oyster cultivation. It is targeted at new entrants to the market wishing to establish a farm, and existing operators who wish to develop their farms and explore new cultivation techniques. The methodologies described can be applied both to low-tech, low budget, small-scale farming operations and to high-tech, big budget, industrial-scale aquaculture production enterprises. This guide focuses on the functional expertise and technical equipment required to construct and manage an operational farm in the diverse environmental and physical locations in which they can be situated, from the initial stages of finding and selecting a suitable site, to the conclusion of the first production cycle and harvesting the crop. The manual contains a brief introduction which describes the relevance of the species with regards to global aquaculture production figures and how it can form an important part of future food production strategies. Chapter 2 describes the anatomy and biology of Crassostrea gigas and gives an indication as to the environmental conditions in which the species thrives as well as the pathologies and predators that can result in poor health leading to potential mortalities. Chapter 3 deals with all aspects of undertaking a survey of potential oyster farming sites and what data should be collected and examined to assess a site’s suitability, but also which areas are best suited to different cultivation techniques. After this, Chapter 4 introduces the main farming techniques that will be described in detail in the following chapters, which includes off-bottom cultivation, on-bottom cultivation, and suspended cultivation, and gives details of some of the most common cultivation equipment necessary to undertake these operations. The techniques and strategies necessary to procure seed oysters and how to develop them through the nursery stage are also introduced. This includes the basic principles of upwelling, which then leads into Chapter 5, which provides a detailed description of how to build and operate one particular example of a Floating Upwelling System (Flupsy) which is suitable for use in remote but sheltered conditions. Chapters 6, 7 and 8 constitute the main body of the manual and provide an in-depth look into the three major cultivation techniques that this guide concentrates on: “Farming with trestles and bags in the intertidal zone”, “On-bottom cultivation in the intertidal or subtidal zone” and “Offshore longline cultivation”. -

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.
