[Published only on the Web site] / Rapport de la Consultation technique sur les Directives techniques pour un commerce responsable du poisson. Rome, 5-7 novembre 2007. [Publié seulement sur le site Web] / Informe de la Consulta Técnica sobre las Directrices Técnicas para un Comercio Pesquero Responsable. Roma, 5-7 de noviembre de 2007. [Publicado solamente en el sitio Web] 2008The Technical Consultation on Technical Guidelines for Responsible Fish Trade was convened by FAO at the request of the twenty-seventh session of the Committee on Fisheries (COFI) (Rome, 5-9 March 2007) and the tenth session of the COFI Sub-Committee on Fish Trade (Santiago de Compostela, 30 May - 2 June 2006). The Consultation was attended by 34 Members of FAO and by observers from two intergovernmental organizations. The Consultation welcomed the draft Technical Guidelines. Many dele gations noted the importance of ensuring that the draft Technical Guidelines did not result in the creation of additional barriers to trade. The Technical Consultation also agreed that responsible fish trade objectives must be underpinned by responsible management practices. Recognizing that the available time did not permit the Technical Consultation to complete its consideration of the draft guidelines in their entirety, the delegates agreed that the Technical Consultation be re-open ed at a later stage for discussion of the remaining paragraphs.

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2023
Urbanization, agrifood systems transformation and healthy diets across the rural–urban continuum
2023This report provides an update on global progress towards the targets of ending hunger (SDG Target 2.1) and all forms of malnutrition (SDG Target 2.2) and estimates on the number of people who are unable to afford a healthy diet. Since its 2017 edition, this report has repeatedly highlighted that the intensification and interaction of conflict, climate extremes and economic slowdowns and downturns, combined with highly unaffordable nutritious foods and growing inequality, are pushing us off track to meet the SDG 2 targets. However, other important megatrends must also be factored into the analysis to fully understand the challenges and opportunities for meeting the SDG 2 targets. One such megatrend, and the focus of this year’s report, is urbanization. New evidence shows that food purchases in some countries are no longer high only among urban households but also among rural households. Consumption of highly processed foods is also increasing in peri-urban and rural areas of some countries. These changes are affecting people’s food security and nutrition in ways that differ depending on where they live across the rural–urban continuum. This timely and relevant theme is aligned with the United Nations General Assembly-endorsed New Urban Agenda, and the report provides recommendations on the policies, investments and actions needed to address the challenges of agrifood systems transformation under urbanization and to enable opportunities for ensuring access to affordable healthy diets for everyone. -
