No results found.L'évaluation économique de l'environnement améliore la mise en œuvre des politiques de sa protection. La forêt est négativement impactée par l'activité économique dans la zone de notre étude. Notre étude a porté sur la volonté de payer des utilisateurs directs au Bénin (Afrique de l'Ouest). Un total de 139 ménages agricoles ont été interviewés pour cette étude. Ainsi les entretiens ont porté d'une part sur les données pour l'élaboration du compte d'exploitation des différentes cultures, du bétail, des produits forestiers, des aides financières reçues, de la main d'œuvre, des ménages agricoles pour la détermination de leurs revenus. D'autre part, ils ont porté sur la surface agricole qu'ils sont prêts à abandonner pour protéger la nature. Les résultats ont montré que, d'une part, les produits forestiers contribuent de façon significative au revenu des ménages, démontrant ainsi l'importance de la forêt dans l'économie locale. D'autre part, à travers la méthode de l'expérience des choix discrets où nous avons utilisé comme moyen les superficies en hectare à abandonner, ces derniers acceptent de payer en abandonnant 3 ha correspondant à 444 251 F CFA par ménage soit 740 $ pour protéger la forêt. Par ailleurs, puisque payer pour protéger la forêt est fonction du service écosystémique que cette dernière procure, les résultats ont également montré que, selon leur activité économique, les populations riveraines des forêts accordent plus d'intérêt, successivement à l'amélioration de la fertilité des sols et à la lutte contre l'érosion (33,25%). puis à la protection des espèces végétales en voie de disparition (30,41%) et enfin à l'amélioration des précipitations et à la réduction des vents violents (30,26%). Ils étaient peu intéressés par la protection de la faune sauvage (6,07%). Le consentement à payer était fortement influencé par le revenu, l'activité professionnelle et le niveau d'éducation.

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. -
Book (stand-alone)High-profileState of knowledge of soil biodiversity - Status, challenges and potentialities
Report 2020
2020Also available in:
No results found.There is increasing attention to the importance of biodiversity for food security and nutrition, especially above-ground biodiversity such as plants and animals. However, less attention is being paid to the biodiversity beneath our feet, soil biodiversity, which drives many processes that produce food or purify soil and water. This report is the result of an inclusive process involving more than 300 scientists from around the world under the auspices of the FAO’s Global Soil Partnership and its Intergovernmental Technical Panel on Soils, the Convention on Biological Diversity, the Global Soil Biodiversity Initiative, and the European Commission. It presents concisely the state of knowledge on soil biodiversity, the threats to it, and the solutions that soil biodiversity can provide to problems in different fields. It also represents a valuable contribution to raising awareness of the importance of soil biodiversity and highlighting its role in finding solutions to today's global threats.
