    This report summarizes the main results of FAO Cuba in 2022. At a time when Latin America and the Caribbean are determined to face and overcome the most complex humanitarian, economic and social crisis in recent decades, FAO in Cuba continues to take steps towards the consolidation of its essential goals, with more than USD 57 million mobilized between 2019 and 2022, in support of the priority areas signed with the government in the Country Program Framework 2020-2024. FAO Cuba accompanied the construction and implementation of public policies of impact for the transformation of local agrifood systems in Cuba and their governance, such as the Law on Food Sovereignty and Food and Nutrition Security, and other legal policies and regulations, and advanced towards greater resilience climate change with the productive restoration of 65 000 hectares of land previously invaded by marabou, and the conservation of plant and animal genetic resources of interest for food and agriculture.

    As countries develop and revise their nationally determined contributions (NDCs), there is growing recognition of the need to integrate biodiversity considerations into them – particularly in the context of agrifood systems – in order to ensure that climate actions also contribute to, or at least do not undermine, the sustainable use and conservation of biodiversity, and the ecosystem services it provides.This brief draws on the findings of an analysis of the treatment of agrifood systems in NDCs to identify opportunities to leverage actions under NDCs to achieve co-benefits for climate, biodiversity and food security, and avoid maladaptation.

    This publication contains the proceedings of the FAO Global Conference on Sustainable Livestock Transformation, which took place at FAO headquarters in Rome on 25-27 September 2023. The objective of the conference was to provide a neutral forum for FAO Members, producers, scientists, development agencies, policymakers, civil society and the private sector to engage in dialogue on innovations and pathways to efficiently produce more nutritious, safe and accessible animal sourced foods with a reduced environmental footprint and to contribute to vibrant local and diversified livestock systems that are more resilient to shocks and disruptions. The proceedings provide a record of the main highlights of the conference, including the opening plenary session where there were addresses by the FAO Director-General, two keynote speakers and nine participants in two high-level ministerial panels; four plenary sessions dedicated respectively to the themes of better production, better nutrition, better environment and better life, with summaries of presentations and facilitated discussions; and a final plenary session including statements from 12 participants in two high-level ministerial segments. The proceedings also include one chapter each dedicated to the Global Youth Dialogue on Sustainable Livestock Transformation; the reports of five side events and an FAO launch event which took place during the conference; and a summary of 12 success stories of sustainable livestock transformation that were showcased in an exhibition held during the conference.
