    The State of the World’s Biodiversity for Food and Agriculture presents the first global assessment of biodiversity for food and agriculture worldwide. Biodiversity for food and agriculture is the diversity of plants, animals and micro-organisms at genetic, species and ecosystem levels, present in and around crop, livestock, forest and aquatic production systems. It is essential to the structure, functions and processes of these systems, to livelihoods and food security, and to the supply of a wide range of ecosystem services. It has been managed or influenced by farmers, livestock keepers, forest dwellers, fish farmers and fisherfolk for hundreds of generations. Prepared through a participatory, country-driven process, the report draws on information from 91 country reports to provide a description of the roles and importance of biodiversity for food and agriculture, the drivers of change affecting it and its current status and trends. It describes the state of efforts to promote the sustainable use and conservation of biodiversity for food and agriculture, including through the development of supporting policies, legal frameworks, institutions and capacities. It concludes with a discussion of needs and challenges in the future management of biodiversity for food and agriculture. The report complements other global assessments prepared under the auspices of the Commission on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture, which have focused on the state of genetic resources within particular sectors of food and agriculture.

    El estado de la seguridad alimentaria y la nutrición en el mundo 2019
    Protegerse frente a la desaceleración y el debilitamiento de la economía
    2019
    En el informe de este año se presentan evidencias de que la cifra absoluta de personas que padecen hambre sigue aumentando lentamente. El informe también destaca que la inseguridad alimentaria es algo más que solamente hambre. Por vez primera, el informe proporciona datos según los cuales hay muchas personas en el mundo que, si bien no padecen hambre, experimentan inseguridad alimentaria moderada, ya que se enfrentan a incertidumbres en cuanto a su capacidad para obtener alimentos y se ven obligadas a aceptar menos calidad o cantidad en los alimentos que consumen. Este fenómeno se observa a nivel mundial, no solamente en países de ingresos bajos y medianos, sino también en países de ingresos altos. El informe también pone de manifiesto que el mundo no está en camino de cumplir las metas mundiales de nutrición, incluidas las relativas al bajo peso al nacer y a la reducción del retraso del crecimiento en los niños menores de cinco años. Además, el sobrepeso y la obesidad siguen aumentando en todas las regiones, especialmente entre los niños en edad escolar y los adultos. El informe destaca que no hay ninguna región libre de la epidemia del sobrepeso y la obesidad, y subraya la necesidad de enfoques multifacéticos y multisectoriales para detener y revertir estas inquietantes tendencias.

    United Nations Decade of Family Farming 2019-2028 - Global Action Plan 2019
    Agriculture today faces increasing pressure to provide sufficient, affordable and nutritious food for a growing population, cope with climate change and the degradation of natural resources, including water scarcity, soil depletion, and biodiversity loss. Pervasive inequalities between rural and urban areas have led to an unprecedented level of urbanization. To feed the world and do it sustainably, an urgent and radical shift in our food systems is necessary. To be effective, transformative actions must address a complex set of interconnected objectives encompassing economic, social and environmental dimensions. Family farmers are at the heart of this issue. They provide the majority of the world’s food, are the major investors in agriculture and the backbone of the rural economic structure. The Global Action Plan of the UNDFF provides detailed guidance for the international community on collective, coherent and comprehensive actions that can be taken to support family farmers. It outlines a comprehensive approach to support efforts to achieve the SDGs, in the context of the progressive realization of the Right to Adequate Food. Designed around seven mutually reinforcing pillars of work, the Global Action Plan recommends a series of interconnected actions from the local to the global level. Any interventions developed during the decade must always consider the diversity of family farmers. They should be context-specific, adapted to regional, national, local socio-cultural and socio-economic conditions. To guarantee the success of the UNDFF, all actions should place family farmers at the center and be implemented through bottom-up, participatory and inclusive processes.
