Book (stand-alone)Technical bookSituation de référence biophysique et socio-économique - Le point de départ de l'Action contre la désertification 2018
Also available in:
Le projet Action contre la désertification (ACD) appuie huit pays (le Burkina Faso, l’Éthiopie, Fidji, la Gambie, Haïti, le Niger, le Nigéria et le Sénégal) du Groupe des États d’Afrique, des Caraïbes et du Pacifique (ACP) dans la gestion durable et la restauration de leurs terres dégradées. Des évaluations ont été menées dans chacun de ces pays afin d’établir une situation de référence en regard de laquelle observer les changements et les impacts du projet, de même que pour permettre de mieux cibler les activités de ce dernier et de fournir des informations à d’autres acteurs et initiatives engagés dans la restauration des terres de ces huit pays. Dans la mesure où le projet se propose de renforcer les liens entre la résilience des écosystèmes et les moyens d’existence, deux familles d’indicateurs (biophysiques et socioéconomiques) ont été évalués. Les données regroupées dans les huit pays visés ont été analysées, validées et compilées dans une base de données harmonisée. Ce rapport synthétise ainsi la situation socioéconomique et l’état de l’environnement dans les zones d’intervention de chacun des huit pays impliqués dans le projet.

BookletHigh-profileFAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022The FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 was endorsed by FAO Council in June 2022. This new strategy replaces the previous strategy from 2017 to better FAO's climate action with the Strategic Framework 2022-2031, and other FAO strategies that have been developed since then. The Strategy was elaborated following an inclusive process of consultation with FAO Members, FAO staff from headquarters and decentralized offices, as well as external partners. It articulates FAO's vision for agrifood systems by 2050, around three main pillars of action: at global and regional level, at country level, and at local level. The Strategy also encourages key guiding principles for action, such as science and innovation, inclusiveness, partnerships, and access to finance.

Book (stand-alone)High-profileState of knowledge of soil biodiversity - Status, challenges and potentialities
Report 2020
2020Also available in:
No results found.There is increasing attention to the importance of biodiversity for food security and nutrition, especially above-ground biodiversity such as plants and animals. However, less attention is being paid to the biodiversity beneath our feet, soil biodiversity, which drives many processes that produce food or purify soil and water. This report is the result of an inclusive process involving more than 300 scientists from around the world under the auspices of the FAO’s Global Soil Partnership and its Intergovernmental Technical Panel on Soils, the Convention on Biological Diversity, the Global Soil Biodiversity Initiative, and the European Commission. It presents concisely the state of knowledge on soil biodiversity, the threats to it, and the solutions that soil biodiversity can provide to problems in different fields. It also represents a valuable contribution to raising awareness of the importance of soil biodiversity and highlighting its role in finding solutions to today's global threats.
