Reflexiones y relatos de vivencias en países de América Latina
2025Also available in:
Esta publicación presenta algunas herramientas que las organizaciones de asistencia técnica y extensión rural en áreas rurales han utilizado para reinventarse, especialmente después de la pandemia de la COVID-19, utilizando la digitalización para fortalecer el conocimiento en el campo, particularmente en la agricultura familiar. El tema de la conectividad, especialmente en las zonas rurales, es un desafío enfrentado por todos los países de la región. Según la FAO (2020), la digitalización, junto con un uso más intensivo del análisis de datos y nuevos modelos de gobernanza, es un acelerador de la transformación inclusiva y sostenible de los sistemas agroalimentarios.Esta publicación reúne experiencias del proyecto +Algodón en distintos contextos y que muestran la emergencia de nuevas herramientas, metodologías y técnicas que se apoyan en el uso más intensivo de las innovaciones tecnológicas para contribuir a las transformaciones que aceleren la transición hacia sistemas agroalimentarios más eficientes, inclusivos, sostenibles y resilientes en América Latina y el Caribe. Organizada en artículos, la publicación presenta las bases metodológicas pedagógicas para una asistencia técnica y extensión rural (ATER) digital participativa en el marco del proyecto; relata experiencias en el entorno digital de comunicación rural, como el caso del Ecuador y de Colombia; propone reflexiones sobre los mecanismos para promover la innovación en una ATER digital a partir de las lecciones aprendidas con el proyecto; y ofrece sugerencias de iniciativas de asistencia técnica y extensión rural en la región.Este documento, una contribución del proyecto +Algodón, ejecutado por la FAO y la Agencia Brasileña de Cooperación (ABC) en el marco del Programa de Cooperación Internacional Brasil-FAO, está dirigido a todos los interesados en el tema de la asistencia técnica y extensión rural, como profesionales de campo, investigadores y estudiantes, así como a quienes se interesan en la digitalización en el medio rural. -

After shedding light on the nature of the challenges that agriculture and food systems are facing now and throughout the 21st century, the study provides insights into what is at stake and what needs to be done. “Business as usual” is not an option. Major transformations in agricultural systems, rural economies, and natural resources management are necessary. The present study was undertaken for the quadrennial review of FAO’s strategic framework and for the preparation of the Organization Medium-Term plan 2018-2021. -
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. -
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.
