BookletFAO Action Plan 2022–2025 for the implementation of the FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2023The elements of the Action Plan are derived from the Theory of Change anchored in the Strategy. The Action Plan is therefore articulated around the three pillars and six outcomes of the Strategy. In addition, and with the aim to provide more clarity, action areas have been introduced to cluster the outputs, which are concrete results contributing to each outcome of the Strategy. The outputs are formulated based on the FAO actions listed in section IV “Three pillars for enhanced action” of the Strategy. In the following matrix of outcomes and outputs, each output is cross-referenced with the relevant PPAs and SDG targets it contributes to achieve, in line with the FAO Strategic Framework. Similarly, each action area is being monitored by an indicator from the updated results framework 2022–2025. These indicators have been selected according to their linkage to the action area to best illustrate the contribution of the Action Plan to the implementation of the Strategic Framework. Based on the nature of the action area (technical vs functional), these indicators are either key performance indicators (KPIs) or output indicators from the PPAs.

Book (series)Forestry for a low-carbon future: Integrating forests and wood products in climate change strategies 2016
Also available in:
No results found.Following the introduction, Chapter 2 provides an overview of mitigation in the forest sector, addressing the handling of forests under UNFCCC. Chapters 3 to 5 focus on forest-based mitigation options – afforestation, reforestation, REDD+ and forest management – and Chapters 6 and 7 focus on wood-product based options – wood energy and green building and furnishing. The publication describes these activities in the context of UNFCCC rules, assessing their mitigation potential and economic attrac tiveness as well as opportunities and challenges for implementation. Chapter 8 discusses the different considerations involved in choosing the right mix of options as well as some of the instruments and means for implementation. Chapter 8 also highlights the co-benefits generated by forest-based mitigation and emphasizes that economic assessment of mitigation options needs to take these benefits into account. The concluding chapter assesses national commitments under UNFCCC involving forest miti gation and summarizes the challenges and opportunities. -
BookletFAO's work on climate change
United Nations Climate Change Conference 2019
2019The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) estimates that over 820 million people in the world today are chronically hungry. If temperatures continue to rise, then progress towards eradicating hunger and ensuring the sustainability of our natural-resource base to achieve the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development will be at risk. Without action, the changing climate will affect food availability and hinder access to food by disrupting the livelihoods of millions of rural people. Delivering on country commitments to transform food systems and promote sustainable agriculture can still create a world without hunger and malnutrition by 2030. But we must work urgently to transform agriculture through inclusive, multi-sectoral approaches that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and build resilience of people and the planet. This booklet illustrates FAO’s commitment to innovating in agriculture and transforming its practices to meet the climate challenge and the Sustainable Development Goals.
