Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureLes indications géographiques comme outil pour renforcer la durabilité
Leçons tirées de 15 ans de travaux de la FAO sur les indications géographiques
2024Depuis 2007, la FAO applique une approche globale pour soutenir ses membres dans le développement d'indications géographiques durables, la portée de son travail allant des chaînes de valeur locales aux cadres institutionnels nationaux. Sur la base des enseignements tirés des projets d'assistance technique, des consultations avec les parties prenantes à travers le monde et de l'expertise scientifique, la FAO a identifié un certain nombre de bonnes pratiques pour s'assurer que les indications géographiques contribuent au développement de systèmes alimentaires durables. Cette note d'orientation politique souligne l'importance des projets endogènes qui placent les producteurs locaux au centre des processus d'indication géographique (avec le soutien des autorités publiques et des experts), ainsi que des cahiers des charges qui promeuvent la préservation des ressources locales. La note préconise une approche qui exige des institutions publiques qu'elles jouent un rôle important, voire nouveau, dans le développement des indications géographiques, et fournit des recommandations utiles à cette fin. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureEtude ex ante de la création d’une indication géographique sur le Madd (Saba senegalensis) dans la région naturelle de Casamance au Sénégal 2020
Also available in:
No results found.Le Madd est le fruit du Saba senegalensis, une liane sauvage que l’on trouve en Afrique de l’ouest. Riche en vitamine C, il est apprécié par les comsommateurs de la région. Son exploitation durable requiert une gestion responsable des ressources forestières, et offre des perspectives d'emploi et de rémunération pour les juenes et les femmes. Ces différents en font un candidat pour l'obtention d'un indication géographique - la première au Sénégal - avec le support de l’Organisation africaine pour la propriété intellectuelle (OAPI). -
Book (stand-alone)Technical reportCFS 2019/46/INF/17 - Approches agroécologiques et autres approches novatrices pour une agriculture et des systèmes alimentaires durables propres à améliorer la sécurité alimentaire et la nutrition 2019
Also available in:
Food systems and agriculture are at a crossroads and a profound transformation is needed at all scales, not only to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG2) to “end hunger and all forms of malnutrition” by 2030 but also to address Agenda 2030 in its entirety, including human and environmental health, climate change, equity and social stability. Current trends, such as the new increase, since 2014, in the number of undernourished people and the alarming rate of all forms of malnutrition in all countries, and related tensions will be exacerbated if we fail to design and implement, in a very near future, food systems that ensure food security and nutrition while addressing all sustainability challenges. Agroecological and other innovative approaches in agriculture are increasingly praised for their potential contribution to reach these crucial goals. This report adopts a dynamic perspective, centred on the key concepts of transition and transformation. Ultimately, this rich and comprehensive report aims to fuel an exciting policy convergence process and help remove the lock-ins by developing a common understanding of these matters, so that concrete transition pathways can be implemented at all relevant scales, from farm, community and landscape to national, regional and global levels.

BookletCorporate general interestEmissions due to agriculture
Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018
2021Also available in:
No results found.The FAOSTAT emissions database is composed of several data domains covering the categories of the IPCC Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sector of the national GHG inventory. Energy use in agriculture is additionally included as relevant to emissions from agriculture as an economic production sector under the ISIC A statistical classification, though recognizing that, in terms of IPCC, they are instead part of the Energy sector of the national GHG inventory. FAO emissions estimates are available over the period 1961–2018 for agriculture production processes from crop and livestock activities. Land use emissions and removals are generally available only for the period 1990–2019. This analytical brief focuses on overall trends over the period 2000–2018. -
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. -
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.
