BookletEvaluation reportEvaluación del proyecto "Transformación territorial, resiliencia y sostenibilidad"
Código de proyecto: GCP/COL/123/SWE
2025Also available in:
No results found.El objetivo del proyecto, financiado por la Embajada de Suecia y ejecutado por la Oficina de la FAO en Colombia, fue contribuir a la superación de la pobreza multidimensional de mujeres, hombres, niños y niñas en territorios priorizados que han sido afectados afectadas por el conflicto armado. Implementado en Bolívar, Córdoba, Nariño y Putumayo, se centró en el fortalecimiento de los medios de vida, la gestión sostenible de los ecosistemas, la innovación tecnológica y financiera, y las redes comunitarias para la reparación de las víctimas.La evaluación determinó que la relevancia y el impacto del proyecto fueron elevados, al incrementar la seguridad alimentaria, la igualdad de género y la sostenibilidad ambiental. Entre los desafíos identificados se encontraron la deficiente coordinación de los gobiernos locales, las ineficiencias administrativas y los riesgos de sostenibilidad debido a problemas de seguridad.Entre las recomendaciones clave de la evaluación se incluyen mejorar la coordinación institucional, optimizar los procesos administrativos, fortalecer la inclusión financiera y garantizar la continuidad de la estrategia a largo plazo. A pesar de las dificultades, el proyecto logró fortalecer las capacidades comunitarias y crear modelos escalables para el desarrollo rural sostenible en Colombia. -

No results found.El proyecto se desarrolló para apoyar a comunidades vulnerables afectadas por el conflicto armado en 17 municipios de cinco departamentos en Colombia, abordando la pérdida de autonomía económica y las rupturas sociales causadas por el desarraigo y el conflicto. Con el apoyo financiero de Suecia y la implementación de la FAO, se combinaron modelos de atención y reactivación económica, promoviendo cultivos de ciclo corto, sistemas pecuarios, emprendimientos productivos agropecuarios y no agropecuarios generadores de ingresos sostenibles para las familias, innovación tecnológica y financiera, y el fortalecimiento de redes comunitarias e institucionales. Se beneficiaron 3 560 familias a través de acciones como la adecuación de casas aguateras, el mejoramiento de sus prácticas productivas, la incorporación de infraestructura social y productiva, el fortalecimiento de capacidades, la firma de acuerdos comerciales, la incorporación de prácticas favorecedoras de la economía del cuidado, la puesta en marcha de estrategias de género, la producción sostenida de alimentos, entre otras, mejorando sus condiciones de vida y promoviendo la sostenibilidad y resiliencia en los territorios afectados. -
BookletBrochureFAO Colombia: Programa de Resiliencia (2017-2020)
El compromiso de la FAO con el Acuerdo de Paz y la resiliencia en Colombia
2017Also available in:
Tras más de cincuenta años de conflicto armado interno, Colombia vive un momento de esperanza después de la firma del Acuerdo de Paz en noviembre de 2016 entre el gobierno colombiano y la guerrilla de las Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias–Ejército del Pueblo (FARC-EP). En este contexto, la Representación de la FAO en Colombia ha elaborado un “Estrategia de Acompañamiento de FAO a la Implementación del Acuerdo de Paz en Colombia” que define las líneas de trabajo y concreta lo establecido en el Marco Programático de País (MPP) 2015-2019. El programa de resiliencia se inserta en estos marcos poniendo énfasis en los aspectos de construcción de resiliencia como concepto vertebrador fundamental en los escenarios de posconflicto y de recurrencia de amenazas naturales. ¿Por qué la estrategia para la generación de resiliencia de los medios de vida en comunidades rurales vulnerables desarrollada por la FAO Colombia es tan importante?

Book (series)Technical studyThe impact of climate variability and extremes on agriculture and food security - An analysis of the evidence and case studies
Background paper for The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2018
2020Also available in:
No results found.Global climate studies show that not only temperatures are increasing and precipitation levels are becoming more varied, all projections indicate these trends will continue. It is therefore imperative that we understand changes in climate over agricultural areas and their impacts on agriculture production and food security. This study presents new analysis on the impact of changing climate on agriculture and food security, by examining the evidence on recent climate variability and extremes over agricultural areas and the impact of these on agriculture and food security. It shows that more countries are exposed to increasing climate variability and extremes and the frequency (the number of years exposed in a five-year period) and intensity (the number of types of climate extremes in a five-year period) of exposure over agricultural areas have increased. The findings of this study are compelling and bring urgency to the fact that climate variability and extremes are proliferating and intensifying and are contributing to a rise in global hunger. The world’s 2.5 billion small-scale farmers, herders, fishers, and forest-dependent people, who derive their food and income from renewable natural resources, are most at risk and affected. Actions to strengthen the resilience of livelihoods and food systems to climate variability and extremes urgently need to be scaled up and accelerated. -

Book (series)Technical studyPacific oyster farming
A practical manual
2024Also available in:
No results found.The purpose of this manual is to give the reader a foundation of practical knowledge regarding all aspects of Pacific oyster cultivation. It is targeted at new entrants to the market wishing to establish a farm, and existing operators who wish to develop their farms and explore new cultivation techniques. The methodologies described can be applied both to low-tech, low budget, small-scale farming operations and to high-tech, big budget, industrial-scale aquaculture production enterprises. This guide focuses on the functional expertise and technical equipment required to construct and manage an operational farm in the diverse environmental and physical locations in which they can be situated, from the initial stages of finding and selecting a suitable site, to the conclusion of the first production cycle and harvesting the crop. The manual contains a brief introduction which describes the relevance of the species with regards to global aquaculture production figures and how it can form an important part of future food production strategies. Chapter 2 describes the anatomy and biology of Crassostrea gigas and gives an indication as to the environmental conditions in which the species thrives as well as the pathologies and predators that can result in poor health leading to potential mortalities. Chapter 3 deals with all aspects of undertaking a survey of potential oyster farming sites and what data should be collected and examined to assess a site’s suitability, but also which areas are best suited to different cultivation techniques. After this, Chapter 4 introduces the main farming techniques that will be described in detail in the following chapters, which includes off-bottom cultivation, on-bottom cultivation, and suspended cultivation, and gives details of some of the most common cultivation equipment necessary to undertake these operations. The techniques and strategies necessary to procure seed oysters and how to develop them through the nursery stage are also introduced. This includes the basic principles of upwelling, which then leads into Chapter 5, which provides a detailed description of how to build and operate one particular example of a Floating Upwelling System (Flupsy) which is suitable for use in remote but sheltered conditions. Chapters 6, 7 and 8 constitute the main body of the manual and provide an in-depth look into the three major cultivation techniques that this guide concentrates on: “Farming with trestles and bags in the intertidal zone”, “On-bottom cultivation in the intertidal or subtidal zone” and “Offshore longline cultivation”.
