Book (stand-alone)Technical studyEstudio de las causas de la deforestación y degradación forestal en Guinea Ecuatorial 2004-2014 2018

No results found.El presente estudio sobre las causas directas y subyacentes de deforestación y degradación de los bosques en Guinea Ecuatorial se ha realizado en el marco del proceso de desarrollo de la Estrategia Nacional REDD+ (EN-REDD+) y del Plan Nacional de Inversión REDD (PNI-REDD+). La EN-REDD+ y el PNI-REDD+ aspiran a guiar y apoyar los esfuerzos de todas las partes implicadas en la implementación de REDD+ , que tiene como objetivo reducir las emisiones, aumentar el secuestro de carbono en los bosques y mejorar la gestión y conservación de las reservas forestales de carbono. El estudio ha estado a cargo de un equipo multidisciplinario liderado por el Ministerio de Economía, Planificación e Inversiones Públicas (MEPIP) y el Ministerio de Bosques y Medio Ambiente (MBMA) de Guinea Ecuatorial, con el apoyo técnico de la Organización de las Naciones Unidades para la Alimentación y la Agricultura (FAO). El principal objetivo del estudio es identificar y analizar las causas directas y subyacentes de la deforestación y la degradación de los bosques ecuatoguineanos en el periodo 2004-2014 y estimar su impacto en los bosques del país. Así mismo, el estudio tiene el objetivo de informar el proceso nacional REDD+, apoyando la toma de decisiones y la planificación de las futuras políticas de desarrollo socioeconómico, territorial y de gestión de los recursos naturales y orientando las inversiones para reducir el impacto en los bosques y las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero. Los resultados del estudio refuerzan y mejoran la información existente en el país, en particular sobre los factores que han determinado la evolución de la cobertura forestal. A pesar de mantener una cobertura boscosa relativamente alta, el país está perdiendo superficie forestal cada año y, especialmente, los bosques del país se degradan de forma progresiva, perdiendo su riqueza biológica y reduciendo su capacidad de proporcionar servicios y beneficios ambientales y socioeconómicos. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureFLEGT & REDD+ Trabajando juntos para consolidar la gobernanza forestal y mitigar el cambio climático 2016La pérdida de bosques contribuye a un sexto de las emisiones anuales de gases de efecto invernadero que son la causa principal del cambio climático. La experiencia nos enseña que la implementación conjunta de enfoques de reducción de la deforestación y de la degradación forestal y de consolidación de la gobernanza forestal –como la Reducción de las emisiones debidas a la deforestación y a la degradación forestal (REDD+) y la Aplicación de leyes, gobernanza y comercio forestales (FLEGT)– puede se r mucho más eficaz para contrarrestar la pérdida de bosques. Sin embargo, hasta la fecha pocos países han aprovechado las sinergias entre estos dos procesos. Las similitudes ampliamente reconocidas entre los objetivos de las iniciativas de REDD+ y de la FLEGT ofrecen oportunidades obvias de medidas comunes para enfrentar la deforestación y consolidar la gobernanza forestal. REDD+ y FLEGT comparten una serie de metas y enfoques comunes y se dirigen a las mismas partes interesadas (actores del sec tor forestal de las agencias gubernamentales, comunidades locales y pueblos indígenas, además del sector privado). Ambos mecanismos se basan en incentivos para promover la gestión forestal sostenible y su éxito depende del fuerte énfasis en la gobernanza forestal.

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. -
