The latter are key elements in the new strategic framework and within the remit of FAO’s new objectives 6 (technical quality, knowledge and services) and 8 (outreach). It was undertaken in a consultative manner, and guided by seven evaluation questions. The evaluation met with almost 400 stakeholders; reviewed about 300 documents; assembled an inventory of over 600 FAO’s publications, 70 databases, 120 networks and 70 learning resources; surveyed over 100 staff members and 3 000 known users; carried out a meta-analysis of over 50 evaluations and selected cybermetric analyses; and consulted all FAO member countries as well as a sample of core clients in thirteen members.

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. -
Book (series)Evaluation reportEvaluación de medio término del proyecto “Manejo integrado de espacios marinos y costeros de alto valor para la biodiversidad en el Ecuador continental”
Código de proyecto: GCP/ECU/084/GFF Código FMAM: 4770
2020Also available in:
No results found.El área continental ecuatoriana se caracteriza por una alta diversidad de ecosistemas marinos y costeros, incluyendo playas de anidación de cuatro especies de tortugas marinas y extensas zonas de manglares que brindan bienes y servicios ecosistémicos. El proyecto, implementado por la FAO de 2016 a 2020, busca superar las principales amenazas que afectan a la diversidad biológica marina y costera y al mismo tiempo contribuir a mejorar los medios de vida de las personas que habitan en estas áreas. El proyecto está contribuyendo significativamente a este último objetivo mediante la elaboración de planes de manejo de pesca y proyectos de desarrollo productivo. Sin embargo, debería continuar con sus esfuerzos a fin de implementar una estrategia alternativa ante la imposibilidad de crear nuevas áreas protegidas e incorporar el enfoque del Manejo Costero Integrado en la gestión costera de los gobiernos locales. -
Book (series)Evaluation reportÉvaluation finale du projet «Élimination des polluants organiques persistants et pesticides obsolètes et renforcement de la gestion du cycle de vie des pesticides au Bénin»
Code de projet: GCP/BEN/056/GFF - Identifiant FEM: 4756
2021Also available in:
Ce rapport présente les résultats de l’évaluation finale du projet «Élimination des polluants organiques persistants et pesticides obsolètes et renforcement de la gestion du cycle de vie des pesticides au Bénin» (projet GCP/BEN/056/GFF), exécuté par la FAO et le Gouvernement du Bénin de mars 2015 à septembre 2021. Le projet est cohérent pas rapport aux priorités du pays et des partenaires. Le projet a su mobiliser l’approche champs-écoles des producteurs (CEP), la gestion intégrée de la production et des déprédateurs (GIPD) et des partenariats pertinents. Des lacunes au niveau du processus de gestion du cycle de vie des pesticides ont néanmoins été identifiées et des mesures correctives proposées. Le cadre réglementaire a été renforcé ainsi que les capacités nationales en décontamination des sites polluées, sécurisation des pesticides obsolètes et polluants organiques persistants (POP), analyse des échantillons de sol pollués, recyclage et gestion des emballages vides de pesticides, test et d’adoption de techniques et systèmes alternatifs basés sur la GIPD, etc.
