Rapport mondial trimestriel
2022Selon les évaluations de la FAO, à l’échelle de la planète, 44 pays, dont 33 en Afrique, neuf en Asie et deux en Amérique latine et Caraïbes, ont besoin d’une aide alimentaire extérieure. L’insécurité alimentaire atteint un stade très préoccupant dans certaines parties d’Afrique de l’Est en raison des conflits et de la sécheresse, tandis qu’en Afrique de l’Ouest, selon les prévisions, l’insécurité alimentaire devrait s’accroître et atteindre des niveaux alarmants en 2022 en raison de déficits de la production agricole et de conflits persistants. -
Book (series)BulletinPerspectives de récolte et situation alimentaire n° 2, juillet 2022
Rapport mondial trimestriel
2022Selon les évaluations de la FAO, à l’échelle de la planète, 46 pays, dont 33 en Afrique, 10 en Asie, deux en Amérique latine et Caraïbes, et un en Europe, ont besoin d’une aide alimentaire extérieure. Cette liste comprend désormais l’Ukraine et le Sri Lanka. La situation de l’Afrique de l’Est soulève de sérieuses préoccupations, en raison de plusieurs saisons de sécheresse et d’un risque imminent de famine dans certaines régions. Partout dans le monde, la hausse des prix des denrées alimentaires et l’inflation générale détériorent la situation en matière de sécurité alimentaire, en particulier dans les pays à faible revenu et à déficit vivrier, tandis que les prix élevés des intrants agricoles pourraient restreindre leur utilisation, ce qui pourrait réduire les rendements et les récoltes en 2022. -

Rapport mondial trimestriel
2022Selon les évaluations de la FAO, à l’échelle de la planète, 44 pays, dont 33 en Afrique, neuf en Asie et deux en Amérique latine et Caraïbes, ont besoin d’une aide alimentaire extérieure. Les conditions devraient fortement se dégrader en Afrique de l’Ouest, en raison des conflits, de la cherté des denrées alimentaires et des récoltes réduites, alors que la situation est alarmante en Afrique de l’Est. Les besoins humanitaires devraient également augmenter en Afrique australe à la fin de 2022 sous l’effet de conditions météorologiques défavorables.

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. -
Book (stand-alone)Technical bookClimate change and food security: risks and responses 2015
Also available in:
End hunger, achieve food security and improve nutrition are at the heart of the sustainable development goals. The World has committed to eradicate extreme poverty and hunger by 2030. But climate change is undermining the livelihoods and food security of the rural poor, who constitute almost 80 percent of the world’s poor. The effects of climate change on our ecosystems are already severe and widespread. Climate change brings a cascade of impacts from agroecosystems to livelihoods. Climate change impacts directly agroecosystems, which in turn has a potential impact on agricultural production, which drives economic and social impacts, which impact livelihoods. In other words, impacts translate from climate to the environment, to the productive sphere, to economic and social dimensions. Therefore, ensuring food security in the face of climate change is among the most daunting challenges facing humankind. Action is urgently needed now to reduce vulnerability and increase resilience of food systems to ensure food security and good nutrition for all. -
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.
