Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetHigh-profileColombia | Revised humanitarian response (May–December 2020)
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)
2020Also available in:
No results found.The most vulnerable and food-insecure populations in Colombia mainly live in rural areas, including women, indigenous peoples, afro-descendant communities, youth and refugees/migrants from Venezuela (Bolivarian Republic of), due to the challenges they face linked to prolonged armed conflict and environmental degradation. As the COVID-19 pandemic is rapidly spreading across Colombia strict but essential health-related containment measures have been implemented since the end of March. A spike in confirmed cases, particularly in some of the main urban areas, at the end of April forced the Government to reinstate restrictions in the most affected cities. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and related containment measures have generally impacted the food supply chain. While crop production has not been significantly affected by the containment measures, the livestock sector has been more affected. Overall, the challenges linked to marketing coupled with the slowdown of economic activities have reduced food access in the country. In the framework of the Global Humanitarian Response Plan for COVID-19, FAO has revised its humanitarian response for 2020 to mitigate the effects of the pandemic and address the needs of the most vulnerable households. -

Also available in:
No results found.In Colombia, six out of ten conflict-affected households are food insecure and 26 percent of the population do not manage to eat three meals a day. Extreme weather events, armed violence, and the significant influx of refugees and migrants from the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela continue to exacerbate vulnerabilities. Most communities identify food as their main need, particularly in rural areas where agricultural assistance is needed urgently. -

FAO in the 2019 humanitarian appeals
2019Also available in:
No results found.In 2018, the persistent conflict, increase in armed violence, the occurrence of natural disasters and migration flows have led to increased humanitarian needs in several regions of Colombia, particularly the northeastern border with Venezuela, the southern border with Ecuador, the pacific border with Panama and the North-West. For 2019, FAO requires USD 10.2 million to assist 58 410 people through agricultural support to restore their livelihoods and increase their resilience.

Book (stand-alone)General interest book地理标志食品的营养与健康潜力 2022
Also available in:
在很多重要文件中,传统食品、饮食和粮食体系在大众营养状况中所发挥的重要作用得到了认可。社会经济、生物多样性、自然资源可利用性及地理标志的使用都会影响营养和饮食,但关于前三项的研究比最后一项要多得多。在促进健康饮食和遏制非传染性疾病方面,地理标志食品的潜力值得探索。本书共有五个案例,研究了五种已注册的地理标志食品的营养潜力。 本书探讨了生产过程和最终产品营养成分之间的关系。事实上,这些食品的营养特性在很大程度上可以归因于它们独特的成分和生产过程,与其地理来源密切相关。对营养成分的分析既需要考虑普通的营养素,还要考虑生物活性化合物,后者通常不会出现在营养成分表中。 本书也探究了一些与个案研究对象相似但不一定认证了地理标志的食品。在个案研究后,本书第三部分简要探讨了三个专题:规范地理标志食品以保持和提高营养质量、地理标志食品在健康饮食中的作用以及食品成分测定。第四部分讨论了本书的局限性,并提出了以地理标志食品促进健康饮食的建议。很多受地理标志保护的传统食品是发酵食品,因此,附录涉及了益生菌、益生元和肠道菌群。 -
