BookletProgramme / project reportEvaluation of the project "Chile REDD-plus results-based payments for the results period 2014–2016"
Mid-term report. Project code: GCP/CHI/048/GCF
2025Also available in:
This mid-term evaluation of the "REDD+ Payments for Results in Chile for the Period 2014-2016" project concludes that the project is progressing adequately toward its objectives, with some adjustments and a longer implementation period. The project highlights the strength of its governance models and adaptive management as key elements for its effectiveness. Regarding challenges, it highlights the need to simplify procedures and protocols in the areas of safeguards and monitoring, reporting, and verification, as well as the strengthening of technical capacities. At the territorial level, there is growing awareness of sustainable forest management, although the costs associated with implementing the Benefit Sharing System were higher than expected. The project faces tensions between conservation and livelihoods, and there is room to move toward more transformative approaches, consolidating and articulating good practices in the areas of safeguards, cross-cutting approaches, and strategies for generating socioeconomic co-benefits. The evaluation recommendations include extending the project's timeframe, adjusting targets, promoting integrated approaches, and strengthening monitoring and reporting systems.

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.

DocumentOther documentPractical guidance for peatland restoration monitoring in Indonesia
A remote sensing approach using FAO-SEPAL platform
2021Also available in:
This technical document is intended to give an overview of the use of several remote sensing tools produced by FAO for peatland restoration monitoring in Indonesia. At the core of these tools is the Soil Moisture Mapping (SMM) module in the FAO System for Earth Observation Data Access, Processing and Analysis for Land Monitoring (SEPAL). The Soil Moisture Mapping module was first created using available free, global satellite datasets and meteorological observations to retrieve soil moisture worldwide based on the algorithms developed by Greifeneder et al. 20191. To interpret the soil moisture mapping results, this report shows step-by-step followed methodologies for: the selection of available field data for validation; the study of land cover physical properties in the Indonesian landscape that have an influence on the correct interpretation of the product; and detecting, characterizing, and monitoring land cover change within time series (BFAST). The aim is to provide practical guidance to perform peatland monitoring analysis and strengthen capacities of practitioners and institutions in charge of peatland management, monitoring and reporting with the help of tools on SEPAL. This builds on the report “Peatland mapping and monitoring: recommendations and technical overview” (FAO, 2020). The guidance focuses on the description step by step of FAO peatland monitoring tools, showing its advantages and limitations. It also contains summaries of peatland ecology and condition for its assessment with remote sensing products. This document offers recommendations to interpret the results and integrate them into national monitoring frameworks. -
BookletCorporate general interestEmissions due to agriculture
Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018
2021Also available in:
No results found.The FAOSTAT emissions database is composed of several data domains covering the categories of the IPCC Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sector of the national GHG inventory. Energy use in agriculture is additionally included as relevant to emissions from agriculture as an economic production sector under the ISIC A statistical classification, though recognizing that, in terms of IPCC, they are instead part of the Energy sector of the national GHG inventory. FAO emissions estimates are available over the period 1961–2018 for agriculture production processes from crop and livestock activities. Land use emissions and removals are generally available only for the period 1990–2019. This analytical brief focuses on overall trends over the period 2000–2018.
