    Ukraine: Emergency Response Plan, January–December 2024
    Protecting agricultural livelihoods of rural populations in war-affected areas
    2024

    The war in Ukraine continues to compound the vulnerabilities of rural communities, especially those living near the frontline. Rural households have lost their productive capacities due to displacement, damaged land, infrastructure and equipment, and lack of access to key production inputs. Consequently, rural communities are increasingly becoming food aid beneficiaries and nearly one‑third of planned food aid beneficiaries under the 2024 Humanitarian Response Plan are rural people who traditionally produce their own food. In this context, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has developed the 2024 Emergency Response Plan (ERP). Through the 2024 ERP, FAO aims to mobilize USD 150 million to provide emergency livelihoods assistance to 315 800 households (821 080 people). The ERP focuses on the delivery of time-critical support to rural communities in war-affected areas to enable them to restore their production, improve their food security and avoid reliance on food aid. This document provides an overview of the context, planned response, expected outcomes, and implementation arrangements of the 2024 ERP.

    Ukraine: Response programme, January–December 2023
    Restoring food systems and protecting food security in Ukraine

    The war in Ukraine is significantly impacting food security at the national and global levels. Without urgent support to the Ukrainian agrifood sector, humanitarian needs will continue to rise and the stability of global food value chains will remain under threat. In this context, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations is uniquely positioned in Ukraine to implement a multidimensional and innovative response programme to sustain and restore agrifood systems at scale. Capitalizing on its technical expertise and in-country experience, in 2023, the response programme of the Organization will focus on restoring food security and self-sufficiency in front-line communities (Pillar 1); restoring critical agricultural production and value chains (Pillar 2); and enhancing coordination and technical support to the functioning of critical food system services (Pillar 3).

    The war in Ukraine is significantly impacting food security at the national and global levels. Without urgent support to the Ukrainian agrifood sector, humanitarian needs will continue to rise, further mass displacements can be expected, and the stability of global food value chains will remain under threat. In this context, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations is uniquely positioned in Ukraine to implement a multidimensional and innovative strategy to sustain and restore agrifood systems at scale. Capitalizing on its technical expertise and in-country experience, in 2023, the strategic approach of the Organization will focus on restoring food security and self-sufficiency in front-line communities (Pillar 1); restoring critical agricultural production and value chains (Pillar 2); and enhancing coordination and technical support to the functioning of critical food system services (Pillar 3).

    Picturing progress – Four betters in focus 2025
    Also available in:

    This commemorative volume marks the 80th anniversary of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), tracing its journey from a founding conviction – that hunger is not inevitable – to today’s global mission of transforming agrifood systems. Through a rich collection of photographs and narratives, the book illustrates how FAO works alongside farmers, fishers, scientists, governments, Indigenous Peoples, youth and civil society to advance sustainable solutions that nourish both people and planet.Organized around FAO’s vision of the four betters – better production, better nutrition, a better environment and a better life – the book highlights concrete progress: from regenerative farming and climate-smart livestock, to school feeding programmes, land restoration and inclusive digital innovation. It reflects on both the challenges and the opportunities facing agrifood systems, including climate volatility, conflict and inequality, while showing how collaboration, knowledge and innovation create pathways for resilience and hope.Arriving at a moment of reflection and renewal, this volume is both tribute and testimony: to the millions of people whose daily efforts sustain our world, and to FAO’s enduring commitment to building sustainable, inclusive and equitable agrifood systems that leave no one behind.
