This glossary has been prepared to assist with an understanding of land tenure terms in the context of the Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure of Land, Fisheries and Forests in the Context of National Food Security (VGGT). This document draws on other glossaries and includes keywords that are used in the VGGT, together with other commonly used words in land administration, land management, and land legislation. As with any glossary, this document reflects a certain perspective on land tenure concepts, and it is possible that others will have different perspectives. အမ ိ ျိုးသာျိုး စာျိုးနပ်ရိက္ခာ ဖူလ ုံရရျိုးအတွက္် ရ မယာ၊ သာျိုးင ျိုး နှင ် သစ်ရတာမ ာျိုးနှင ် သက္်ဆိုံင်ရသာ လုံပ်ပိုံင်ခွင ်အာျိုး တာဝန်ခ သည ် စီမ ခန ်ခွွဲမှုအတွက္် ရစတနာ ဖင ် တန်ဖိုံျိုးထာျိုး၍ လိုံက္်နာက္ င ်သ ုံျိုးသင ်ရသာ လမ်ျိုးညွှန်ခ က္်မ ာျိုး (VGGT) နှင ် ဆက္်စပ်ရသာ ရ မယာလုံပ်ပိုံင်ခွင ်ဆိုံင်ရာ စက္ာျိုးလ ုံျိုးမ ာျိုးက္ိုံ နာျိုးလည်ရစရရျိုး အရထာက္်အပ ဖစ်ရစရန် အရ ခခ အသ ုံျိုးအနှုန်ျိုးနှင ် အဓိပပ ယ် ဖွင် ဆိုံခ က္်မ ာျိုး ပ ၀င်ရသာ ဤစာအုံပ်က္ိုံ ပ စုံခွဲ ပ သည်။ ဤစာအုံပ်တွင် အ ခာျိုး ခက္်ဆစ်မ ာျိုး (ရည်ညွှန်ျိုးခ က္်မ ာျိုးက္ိုံ ကက္ည် ရန်) နှင ် VGGTတွင် အသ ုံျိုး ပ ထာျိုးရသာ စက္ာျိုးလ ုံျိုးမ ာျိုးသာမက္ ရ မယာ အုံပ်ခ ပ်ရရျိုး၊ ရ မယာ စီမ ခန ်ခွွဲရရျိုးနှင ် ရ မယာ ဥပရေစီရင် ပဌာန်ျိုး ခင်ျိုး ရရျိုးမ ာျိုး တွင် အသ ုံျိုး ပ ရလ ရှိရသာ အ ခာျိုးစက္ာျိုးလ ုံျိုးမ ာျိုးက္ိုံလည်ျိုး ထည ်သွင်ျိုးထာျိုးပ သည်။ အ ခာျိုးခက္်ဆစ် ဖွင ်ဆိုံခ က္် မ ာျိုး၏ သရဘာသဘာဝအတိုံင်ျိုး ဤခက္်ဆစ်ဖွင ်ဆိုံခ က္်သည်လည်ျိုး ရ မ-ယာလုံပ်ပိုံင်ခွင ် ဆိုံင်ရာ သရဘာတရာျိုး မ ာျိုးက္ိုံ ရှုရထာင ်တစ်ခုံမှ ကက္ည ် မင်ထာျိုးသည် ဖစ်သ ဖင ် က္ွွဲ ပာျိုး ခာျိုးနာျိုးရသာ အ မင်မ ာျိုး ရှိရက္ာင်ျိုး ရှိနိုံင်ပ သည်။ -
Book (stand-alone)GuidelineThe Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure (VGGT) - Popular version for communal land administration 2021
Also available in:
No results found.The VGGT Popular Version for Communal Land Administration was developed to support the Parliament of Namibia in delivering training to traditional authorities and regional institutions to enhance their capacity to administer communal land within their jurisdictions. This was carried out in line with the Communal Land Reform Act, Act 5 of 2002 and the resolutions of the 2nd National Land Conference. The Popular Version outlines 14 pertinent land governance issues in Namibia’s communal areas. These issues which were validated by the MAWLR are discussed briefly and followed by identifying key messages of the VGGT that are relevant within the context of communal land administration in Namibia.

Book (stand-alone)GuidelineMeasuring and modelling soil carbon stocks and stock changes in livestock production systems - Guidelines for assessment. Version 1 2019
Also available in:
No results found.These guidelines are a product of the Livestock Environmental Assessment and Performance (LEAP) Partnership, a multi-stakeholder initiative whose goal is to improve the environmental sustainability of the livestock supply chains through better methods, metrics and data. These guidelines provide a harmonized, international approach for estimating soil organic carbon (SOC) stock and stock changes in livestock production systems. The intended uses of this document are all those having an interest in quantifying soil carbon stocks or stock changes. Wide is the range of objectives and scales for SOC stock change studies, for example: Global or regional accounting for GHG emissions and removals from the land sector as a component of climate change accounting; Monitoring, reporting and verification obligations for the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change; Analysis of the climate change impact of livestock products; Evaluation of the environmental impacts of grazing land management for animal agriculture; Assessment of the mitigation potential of agricultural practices at an industry, region or farm scale; Implementing mitigation options in an emissions trading or other market mechanism where payments for SOC sequestration depend on accurate and verifiable quantification; Research into soil and biological processes affecting SOC stocks and dynamics. A set of methods and approaches are recommended for use by individual farmers or land managers, by those undertaking life cycle assessment of livestock products, policy makers, or regulators at local, regional or national scales. -
Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food and Agriculture 2023
Revealing the true cost of food to transform agrifood systems
2023Agrifood systems generate significant benefits to society, including the food that nourishes us and jobs and livelihoods for over a billion people. However, their negative impacts due to unsustainable business-as-usual activities and practices are contributing to climate change, natural resource degradation and the unaffordability of healthy diets. Addressing these negative impacts is challenging, because people, businesses, governments and other stakeholders lack a complete picture of how their activities affect economic, social and environmental sustainability when they make decisions on a day-to-day basis.The State of Food and Agriculture 2023 looks into the true cost of food for sustainable agrifood systems. The report introduces the concept of hidden environmental, health and social costs and benefits of agrifood systems and proposes an approach – true cost accounting (TCA) – to assess them. To operationalize the TCA approach, the report proposes a two-phase assessment process, first relying on national-level TCA assessments to raise awareness and then moving towards in-depth and targeted evaluations to prioritize solutions and guide transformative actions. It provides a first attempt at national-level assessments for 154 countries, suggesting that global hidden costs from agrifood systems amount to at least to 10 trillion 2020 PPP dollars. The estimates indicate that low-income countries bear the highest burden of the hidden costs of agrifood systems relative to national income. Despite the preliminary nature of these estimates, the analysis reveals the urgent need to factor hidden costs into decision-making for the transformation of agrifood systems. Innovations in research and data, alongside investments in data collection and capacity building, are needed to scale the application of TCA, especially in low- and middle-income countries, so that it can become a viable tool to inform decision- and policymaking in a transparent and consistent way. -
BookletCorporate general interestNational forest monitoring system assessment tool
Quick guidance
2020The national forest monitoring system (NFMS) assessment tool has been developed under the project “Building global capacity to increase transparency in the forest sector (CBIT-Forest)” implemented by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and funded by the Capacity-Building Initiative for Transparency (CBIT) trust fund of the Global Environment Facility (GEF). The tool aims to assist countries in carrying out a comprehensive capacity assessment of forest monitoring across three complementary themes – institutional arrangements, measurement and estimation, and reporting and verification. The tool is based on FAO’s Voluntary Guidelines on National Forest Monitoring (VGNFM) reinforced by the REDDcompass of the Global Forest Observations Initiative (GFOI) and incorporating FAO’s extensive field experience of forest monitoring in different national contexts.
