DocumentOther documentData collection and analysis tools for food security and nutrition
Towards enhancing effective, inclusive, evidence-informed, decision making
2022Food is a fundamental human right, yet too many people in the world do not have secure access to the food they need. High-quality data and their accurate analysis are essential to design, monitor and evaluate effective food security and nutrition (FSN) policies. Data are also fundamental to ensure accountability of government policies and to monitor their implementation and impact. The data revolution, driven by new technologies, is increasing exponentially the volume and types of data available. This provides great opportunities for informing and transforming food systems, but also presents new challenges which, if not properly tackled, can deepen inequalities. This report presents the inherent complexity and multiple dimensions of FSN data collection, analysis and use – including economic, social, institutional, political, legal and technical dimensions; the types of users involved and the numerous and diverse purposes for which data may be used in food security and nutrition efforts, as well as the extant challenges. The report also advances actionable recommendations to enhance the contribution that data can make to ensuring food security and nutrition for all. -
BookletAnnual reportAnticipatory action: Annual report 2023 2024
Also available in:
No results found.In 2023, about 281 million people in 59 countries faced high levels of acute food insecurity, marking the fifth consecutive year of rising humanitarian needs. Weather extremes were the main driver of food crises in 18 of these countries, and affected the food security of almost 72 million people. Such worrying trends, combined with strained resources, call for scaling up innovative approaches, such as anticipatory action, to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of support provided to vulnerable agriculture-dependent households.This annual report highlights the proactive measures that the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) takes to safeguard agricultural livelihoods and food security against forecast hazards and shocks. In 2023, FAO's anticipatory actions reached over 2 million people across 24 countries, focusing especially on mitigating the effects of El Niño-induced floods and droughts globally. This included the provision of tailored early warnings, trainings, drought-tolerant seeds, animal health support, and conditional and unconditional cash transfers, which have helped farmers and herders keep their animals healthy, sustain agricultural production and safeguard their food security ahead of climate extremes.FAO’s regional and national efforts – closely coordinated with partners at all levels – have been instrumental in establishing and implementing anticipatory action frameworks. In 2023, FAO was engaged in 29 anticipatory action protocols serving as effective tools to monitor priority risks and to inform timely interventions ahead of disasters.The report also emphasizes the need for pre-arranged, flexible financing to ensure timely anticipatory action implementation, and highlights successful collaborations with governments, international organizations and local communities. Looking forward, FAO aims to expand its anticipatory action reach, improve early warning systems and strengthen partnerships in the face of food crises. -
Book (stand-alone)FAO strategy / plan / policy / roadmapEl Plan de acción de la FAO sobre la resistencia a los antimicrobianos (2021-2025)
Apoyo a la innovación y la resiliencia en los sectores de la alimentación y la agricultura
2021Debido a la resistencia a los antimicrobianos (RAM), las infecciones farmacorresistentes suponen un lastre cada vez mayor para la salud humana, animal, vegetal y ambiental. Las infecciones farmacorresistentes pueden convertirse en una de las principales causas de muerte. La RAM puede llevar a decenas de millones de personas a la pobreza extrema, el hambre y la malnutrición; además, se prevé que conlleve pérdidas económicas que asciendan a varios puntos porcentuales del producto interno bruto. No obstante, si actuamos con rapidez, podemos evitar que esto ocurra. En este documento se presenta el Plan de acción de la FAO sobre la resistencia a los antimicrobianos para 2021-2025, que constituye una hoja de ruta con la que concentrar los esfuerzos mundiales de lucha contra la RAM en los sectores de la agricultura y la alimentación. El objetivo del plan es contribuir a acelerar el progreso en el desarrollo y la aplicación de planes de acción nacionales multisectoriales para hacer frente a la RAM, con especial hincapié en las prioridades estratégicas y los ámbitos de especialización en los que la FAO puede prestar apoyo. El plan de acción ha sido elaborado por un equipo multidisciplinar de la FAO para garantizar que se tengan en cuenta todas las dimensiones pertinentes —incluidas la sanidad y la producción de animales terrestres y acuáticos, la producción de cultivos, la inocuidad de alimentos y piensos, los recursos genéticos, la gestión de los recursos naturales, la comunicación de riesgos y los cambios de conducta—, prestando especial atención a los marcos reguladores, las normas y los procesos de acción colectiva normativos y ascendentes. La cooperación puede hacer posible que los sistemas alimentarios, los medios de vida y las economías estén mejor protegidos ante las fuerzas desestabilizadoras de las enfermedades intratables.
