DocumentBulletinNon-wood news
An information bulletin on Non-Wood Forest Products
2007Also available in:
No results found.Behind the new-look Non-Wood News is the usual wealth of information from the world of NWFPs. The Special Features section covers two different aspects of NWFPs: a specific product (bamboo) and a developing market (cosmetics and beauty care). Bamboo is versatile: it can be transformed, for example, into textiles, charcoal, vinegar, green plastic or paper and can also be used as a food source, a deodorant, an innovative building material and to fuel power stations. Reports indicate that natural c osmetics and beauty care are a huge global market, with forecasts indicating an annual growth of 9 percent through 2008. The Special Feature on Forest cosmetics: NWFP use in the beauty industry builds on this and includes information industry interest and marketing strategies (consumers are being drawn to natural products and thus their content is emphasized). As can be seen from the articles on shea butter in Africa and thanakha in Myanmar, many societies have always used and benefited from nat ural cosmetics. This issue includes other examples of traditional knowledge, such as the uses of the secretions of a poisonous tree frog in Brazil and the use by the traditional healers in India of allelopathic knowledge. -
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.

Book (stand-alone)Technical bookRevisión científica del impacto del cambio climático en las plagas de las plantas
Un desafío mundial en la prevención y la mitigación de los riesgos de plagas en la agricultura, la silvicultura y los ecosistemas
2021El cambio climático representa un desafío sin precedentes para la biosfera mundial y para la comunidad global. También es un desafío excepcional para la sanidad vegetal. Las actividades humanas y la creciente globalización de los mercados, junto con el aumento de las temperaturas, han dado lugar a una situación favorable para el desplazamiento y el establecimiento de las plagas. Esta revisión científica evalúa los posibles efectos del cambio climático en las plagas de las plantas y, en consecuencia, en la sanidad vegetal. Las pruebas evaluadas indican claramente que el cambio climático ya ha ampliado la variedad de especies hospedadoras y la distribución geográfica de algunas plagas, y puede aumentar aún más el riesgo de introducción de plagas en nuevas zonas. Todo esto reclama la cooperación internacional y el desarrollo de estrategias de protección de las plantas normalizadas para ayudar a los países a adaptar con éxito sus medidas de gestión del riesgo de plagas al cambio climático.
