No results found.RuLIS is a tool to support policies for reducing rural poverty, jointly developed by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Statistics Division, the World Bank and the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD). RuLIS brings together harmonized indicators and comparable data across countries and over time on rural incomes, livelihoods and rural development and allows monitoring the status and progressr of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) indicators. SDG 5.a1 measures women’s ownership rights and control over agricultural land. Through this indicator it is possible to assess the extent of women’s disadvantages in ownership and tenure rights over agricultural land, providing a basis for policy measures aimed at securing women equal opportunities and access to economic resources. This brief is the first analysis that employs a harmonized methodology for measuring tenure rights over agricultural land based on RuLIS data. -
Book (stand-alone)Tracking progress on food and agriculture-related Sustainable Development Goal indicators in Europe and Central Asia 2025

No results found.The Europe and Central Asia (ECA) region is at a key stage of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, experiencing progress in various domains – albeit with some areas witnessing limited forward movement or minor reversals. Despite varying degrees of development across countries, the region shares common challenges in enhancing food security, ensuring health and nutrition and combating environmental degradation. Analysis of the 21 Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicators on food and agriculture for which FAO has full custodianship finds that the ECA region is close to the global trend or slightly better, especially in the field of reducing hunger. However, an important portion of the population in the region still struggles to access safe and nutritious foods, and great effort is needed to lower food prices, enhance nutrition education to encourage better food choices, and make agriculture more productive and sustainable through increased government spending. Efforts also are needed to decrease the gender gap in agricultural productivity to improve women’s access to legal land rights.Data play a critical role in driving progress towards the SDGs, as gaps in data availability and quality hinder effective monitoring and policymaking. This report advocates for strengthened data systems to support evidence-based decision-making and targeted interventions. Out of the 23 indicators and 53 countries analysed, assessment could be performed on just 70 percent of data, with information missing regarding productivity, the incomes of small-scale food producers, women's land ownership, food losses, and sustainable fishing. The limited availability of data disaggregated by gender or vulnerable groups also remains an issue in the region as a whole. -
