Book (stand-alone)Technical bookCadre Stratégique Réduction des pertes et du gaspillage de produits alimentaires dans la région Proche-Orient et Afrique du Nord 2015Les pertes et le gaspillage de produits alimentaires dans la région Proche-Orient et Afrique du Nord sont considérables et contribuent à réduire les disponibilités alimentaires, à aggraver la pénurie d’eau, à accélérer la dégradation de l’environnement et à accroître les besoins d’importations alimentaires dans une région déjà fortement tributaire des importations. Le présent document décrit les grandes lignes d’un cadre stratégique pour la réduction des pertes et du gaspillage de produits alime ntaires dans la région. Il répond ainsi à la recommandation de la trente et unième Conférence régionale pour le Proche-Orient demandant à la FAO d’«aider les États Membres à s’attaquer aux problèmes principaux que pose la réduction des pertes et du gaspillage alimentaires en réalisant des études exhaustives sur l’impact de ces pertes en matière de sécurité alimentaire dans la région et à élaborer un plan visant à les réduire de moitié dans les dix ans».Les composantes du cadre stratégique tienne nt compte du contexte socioéconomique, des faiblesses de la lutte menée contre les pertes et le gaspillage d’aliments, ainsi que des ressources dont dispose la région.

Book (stand-alone)Technical bookFAO Strategy for Partnerships with Civil Society Organizations 2013FAO has been working for many years with hundreds of civil society organizations (NGOs, community-based organizations, professional associations, networks, etc.) in technical work, emergency field operations, training and capacity building, and advocacy of best agricultural practices. Over the past years, civil society organizations (CSOs) have evolved in terms of coordination, structure, outreach, mobilization and advocacy capacity. In this period, FAO has also undergone changes i n management, revised its Strategic Framework and given a new impetus to decentralization. Therefore, a review of the existing 1999 FAO Policy and Strategy for Cooperation with Non-Governmental and Civil Society Organizations was needed. The FAO Strategy for Partnerships with Civil Society considers civil society as those non-state actors that work in the areas related to FAO’s mandate. It does not address partnerships with academia, research institutions or philanthropic found ations, as they will be treated in other FAO documents. Food producers’ organizations, given their specific nature and relevance in relation to FAO’s mandate, will be considered separately. In principle, as they usually are for-profit, they will fall under the FAO Strategy for Partnerships with the Private Sector, unless these organizations state otherwise and comply with the criteria for CSOs. These cases will be addressed individually. The Strategy identifies six areas of colla boration and two levels of interaction with different rationales and modus operandi: global-headquarters and decentralized (regional, national, local). The main focus of this Strategy is in working with civil society at th e decentralized level. In its Reviewed Strategic Framework, FAO has defined five Strategic Objectives to eradicate poverty and food insecurity. To achieve this, the Organization is seeking to expand its collaboration with CSOs committed to these objectives.

2005The objective of the Voluntary Guidelines is to provide practical guidance to States in their implementation of the progressive realization of the right to adequate food in the context of national food security, in order to achieve the goals of the World Food Summit Plan of Action. They provide an additional instrument to combat hunger and poverty and to accelerate attainment of the Millennium Development Goals. The Voluntary Guid elines represent the first attempt by governments to interpret an economic, social and cultural right and to recommend actions to be undertaken for its realization. Moreover, they represent a step towards integrating human rights into the work of agencies dealing with food and agriculture.
