Book (stand-alone)Manual / guideTraining manual on linking people for quality products: Trainers’ notes 2017
Also available in:
No results found.Linking people, places and products presents a methodological approach for the development of procedures to preserve and promote quality products, centred on the virtuous circle of origin-linked quality. The guide provides concepts, recommendations and practical examples from all over the world, together with self-evaluation exercises. With a view to boosting the capacities of those involved in such procedures, increasing the number of experts worldwide and also bearing in mind the recent level of interest in this subject, FAO and REDD plan to offer a complete training tool. FAO and REDD have thus worked together to support a bottom-up approach, developing a first training tool for a participatory process of training on the promotion of origin-linked quality and sustainable geographical indications. The training material in the present volume, Linking people for quality products: sustainable interprofessional bodies for geographical indications and origin-linked products, focuses on the management and promotion of the specific qualities of geographical indications (GIs) by local stakeholders gathered together in a collective management organization – the interprofession, or joint body – that are central to the commercial success, and ultimately to the sustainable impact, of any initiative to promote the link between a product and its origin. -

Guía para fomentar la calidad vinculada al origen y las indicaciones geográficas sostenibles
2010Promover los vínculos entre las personas, los lugares y los productos agrícolas y alimenticios puede ser un instrumento que favorece el desarrollo rural sostenible en muchas comunidades rurales del mundo. De hecho, los productos vinculados al origen muestran unos atributos de calidad unidos a unos lugares geográficos y a unas personas que son el resultado de un saber hacer y unos recursos naturales locales específicos y que, con el tiempo, construyen una reputación colectiva, que se identifica por una indicación geográfica (IG). La definición de dicha calidad específica gracias a un pliego de condiciones y a la gestión colectiva del sistema IG son instrumentos fundamentales para determinar y conservar los recursos humanos y naturales, potenciando así los efectos económicos, sociales y ambientales. El objetivo de la presente guía, fruto de experiencias de campo de la FAO y de la red de investigación SINERGI en todo el mundo, es ofrecer a los actores locales un marco conceptual, ejemplos y metodologías concretas para la promoción y la preservación de productos de calidad vinculada al origen y la implementación de IG. En la guía se propone un proceso que consta de cuatro fases a fin de fortalecer el círculo virtuoso de la calidad vinculada al origen. La identificación de los vínculos entre el producto de calidad específica y los recursos locales, la calificación con el pliego de condiciones y el reconocimiento de la IG como un activo colecti vo de base territorial, la remuneración gracias a los enfoques de comercialización y la reproducción de los recursos locales en un enfoque a largo plazo, son las fases principales que permiten una sostenibilidad económica, sociocultural y ambiental del sistema de producción vinculado al origen. -
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.
