MeetingMeeting documentCOFO/WG-DF/2023/4 - Vínculos entre las actividades forestales y la agricultura: fortalecimiento de la resiliencia de los bosques y pastizales a través de la restauración de los sistemas silvopastoriles para una mejor gestión económica y de la sequía 2023La ampliación de la gestión sostenible de la tierra es una esfera de trabajo prioritaria para la FAO. El Comité Forestal (COFO), en su 25.º período de sesiones, elogió la labor intersectorial de la FAO en relación con la mejora de las contribuciones de los bosques y árboles a la sostenibilidad de los sistemas agrícolas y alimentarios mediante la participación de partes interesadas privadas y públicas.

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2023
Urbanization, agrifood systems transformation and healthy diets across the rural–urban continuum
2023This report provides an update on global progress towards the targets of ending hunger (SDG Target 2.1) and all forms of malnutrition (SDG Target 2.2) and estimates on the number of people who are unable to afford a healthy diet. Since its 2017 edition, this report has repeatedly highlighted that the intensification and interaction of conflict, climate extremes and economic slowdowns and downturns, combined with highly unaffordable nutritious foods and growing inequality, are pushing us off track to meet the SDG 2 targets. However, other important megatrends must also be factored into the analysis to fully understand the challenges and opportunities for meeting the SDG 2 targets. One such megatrend, and the focus of this year’s report, is urbanization. New evidence shows that food purchases in some countries are no longer high only among urban households but also among rural households. Consumption of highly processed foods is also increasing in peri-urban and rural areas of some countries. These changes are affecting people’s food security and nutrition in ways that differ depending on where they live across the rural–urban continuum. This timely and relevant theme is aligned with the United Nations General Assembly-endorsed New Urban Agenda, and the report provides recommendations on the policies, investments and actions needed to address the challenges of agrifood systems transformation under urbanization and to enable opportunities for ensuring access to affordable healthy diets for everyone.
