DocumentFactsheetDeveloping aquaculture for improved fish supply in Mongolia - TCP/MON/3501 2017Improving the diet composition of the population of Mongolia for better nutrition and health is one of the priorities in the National Food Security Programme. Increasing domestic fish production is recognized as an important means of reaching this goal, through the development of aquaculture and the improvement of inland fisheries in the country. The project aimed to achieve this by setting up pilot aquaculture business operations, improving capacity, and establishing an enabling environment for the development of the aquaculture sector in the country.

DocumentFactsheetDévelopper l’aquaculture afin d’ameliorer la production de poissons en Mongolia - TCP/MON/3501 2017L’une des priorités du Programme national de sécurité alimentaire est d’améliorer la composition du régime alimentaire de la population de la Mongolie et du même coup de sa nutrition et de sa santé. L’augmentation de la production domestique de poisson est reconnue comme étant un moyen privilégié pour atteindre cet objectif, grâce au développement de l’aquaculture et à l’amélioration des pêches continentales dans le pays. Le projet a contribué à cet objectif en mettant en place des activités commerciales pilotes d’aquaculture, en améliorant les capacités et en créant un environnement propice au développement du secteur de l’aquaculture dans le pays.

ProjectFactsheetSupport to Income Creation in Mongolia (Secim): Improving Local Dairy Processing Through Promoting Women - TCP/MON/3606 2020
Also available in:
No results found.Approximately 160 000 herder households in Mongoliaprocess milk from horse, cow, yak, camel and goats inisolated homesteads when nomadic camps are set up.These milk products are largely used at the household andlocal level. However, improving the quality and safety ofdairy products, as well as increasing their production,offers economic opportunities, particularly for womenfrom these rural communities. Notably, in many soums(districts), unemployment is high for women whoaccompany their children to school/education centres.Women are typically responsible for the preservation ofdairy products – they prepare a range of traditionalproducts, including yogurt, dried curds, fresh cheese andwhey, sour cream, cream, butter and fermented milk. Thelimited training available to these women and the generallack of innovation in dairy processing, however, meansthat these products are not up to date in terms of meetingfood standards, packaging and marketability. Additionally,the equipment, work space and storage methods used fordairy processing are suitable only for domesticconsumption. Hence, there is a requirement for improvingthe production and marketability of traditional dairyproducts. This can be achieved through the use of betterpractices in milk processing, dairy production andmarketing, as well as the introduction of higher qualityequipment and tools. -

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 (series)Technical studyThe impact of climate variability and extremes on agriculture and food security - An analysis of the evidence and case studies
Background paper for The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2018
2020Also available in:
No results found.Global climate studies show that not only temperatures are increasing and precipitation levels are becoming more varied, all projections indicate these trends will continue. It is therefore imperative that we understand changes in climate over agricultural areas and their impacts on agriculture production and food security. This study presents new analysis on the impact of changing climate on agriculture and food security, by examining the evidence on recent climate variability and extremes over agricultural areas and the impact of these on agriculture and food security. It shows that more countries are exposed to increasing climate variability and extremes and the frequency (the number of years exposed in a five-year period) and intensity (the number of types of climate extremes in a five-year period) of exposure over agricultural areas have increased. The findings of this study are compelling and bring urgency to the fact that climate variability and extremes are proliferating and intensifying and are contributing to a rise in global hunger. The world’s 2.5 billion small-scale farmers, herders, fishers, and forest-dependent people, who derive their food and income from renewable natural resources, are most at risk and affected. Actions to strengthen the resilience of livelihoods and food systems to climate variability and extremes urgently need to be scaled up and accelerated. -
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.
