Book (stand-alone)Working paperRégime fiscal forestier et dépenses de l’état en faveur du secteur forestier en République centrafricaine 2004
Also available in:
Le secteur forestier joue un rôle important dans l’économie de la République centrafricaine et se place au deuxième ou au troisième rang, pour ce qui est de la contribution aux revenus, à l’emploi, aux exportations, etc. Les droits d’exportation sur les produits dérivés du bois représentent la principale source de recettes forestières du gouvernement. Viennent ensuite trois taxes forestières spécifiques (taxes basée sur la superficie, taxe d’abattage et taxe au profit du reboisement), auxquelles s’ajoutent quelques taxes secondaires sur les produits forestiers non ligneux et les services procurés par les forêts. Ces recettes forestières sont partagées entre le gouvernement central, l’administration forestière et les autorités locales. Le recouvrement des taxes forestières n’est pas optimal, à cause de l’insuffisance du suivi et des arriérés de paiement. Cependant la République centrafricaine est l’un des rares pays africains où les recettes recouvrées sont supérieures aux dépenses cons acrées par l’État au secteur. En 2000, les dépenses directement consacrées à la foresterie n’ont été que de 322 millions de francs CFA, pour un montant recouvré de 1,5 milliards de francs CFA. -

Liberia has a total of 2,085,898 ha of forest land. This is a major source of revenue, contributing between 5‑9 percent to the country’s GDP. The forest resource is managed by Forestry Development Authority, which is the only government arm given the authority to control the utilisation of the resource and determine charges on forest products and land rentals. -
Book (stand-alone)Working paperRégime fiscal forestier et dépenses de l’état en faveur du secteur forestier au Mali 2001
Also available in:
Le présent rapport décrit le régime fiscal forestier du Mali. Il recense les différentes taxes qui sont prélevées sur la production de bois et sur le défrichement des forêts, ainsi que quelques autres taxes forestières plus générales qui doivent être payées. Il montre aussi l’évolution du montant total des taxes perçues durant la dernière décennie et explique comment ces recettes devraient être partagées entre les différentes parties prenantes. Le rapport donne des informations sur les dépenses publiques forestières, qui sont un peu plus élevées que les taxes perçues. Il examine aussi de façon approfondie les problèmes, notamment les contraintes qui font qu’il est difficile de prélever des impôts, et l’insuffisance du montant total des recettes fiscales pour couvrir les investissements requis pour mettre en œuvre l’aménagement forestier durable.

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)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.
