Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetHigh-profileMake agriculture, forestry and fisheries more productive and more sustainable -
Revised version
2019The following series of flyers highlights the work being carried out by FAO's Strategic Programmes. This flyer is specifically on "Strategic Programme 2: Making agriculture, forestry and fisheries more productive and more sustainable". The vision of FAO for sustainable food and agriculture, enshrined in the 2030 Agenda, requires a radical rethink of the status quo and of current agricultural policies. Farmers, pastoralists, foresters and fishers are encouraged to produce more while using less in an economically, socially and environmentally sustainable way. Building more efficient and equitable agriculture and food systems and investing in rural development can accelerate achievement of goals and targets across the 2030 Agenda. -
ProjectFactsheetMaking Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries More Sustainable and Resilient through Use of Nature-Based Solutions - GCP/GLO/436/IRE 2024

No results found.Nature based solutions (NBS) in agriculture and food systems encompass people centred and regenerative approaches targeted at restoring, sustainably managing and conserving the natural capital needed to buffer food systems and the livelihoods dependent upon them against shocks and crises, while supporting the achievement of sustainable development, climate and biodiversity goals. Considering the potential benefits to be derived from their application, a concerted effort is needed to scale up and optimize the use of NBS, integrating them into wider food system risk management, development and climate action strategies, such as disaster risk reduction, adaptation and mitigation. To support countries in optimizing the use of agricultural NBS, the project supported the development of a multidisciplinary diagnostic, planning and monitoring framework for investments at local and national levels. The tool aims to support countries to conduct better landscape planning and to mainstream issues of natural capital, ecosystem services and biodiversity into planning and investment decision making. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetHigh-profileBlue Production - Making fisheries and aquaculture more productive and sustainable 2019
Also available in:
No results found.The Blue Production platform offers a holistic and cross-cutting approach to the sustainable use and management of global aquatic resources. These resources, on which we depend for food, livelihoods and decent work, are increasingly under threat of overexploitation due to the demands of a growing world population and inadequate or ineffective management. This initiative aims to help fisheries and aquaculture enterprises to increase profitability and cut carbon emissions. It aims to promote income-generating and decent employment opportunities along the fisheries and aquaculture value chains, especially for women and youth, and to foster financial and technical innovation by improving national and local implementation, policies, guidelines and tools.
