No results found.Las instituciones académicas y de investigación desempeñan un papel muy importante en el análisis de la temática de Seguridad Alimentaria y Nutricional (SAN), proporcionando conocimientos innovadores y proponiendo alternativas de solución a los desafíos regionales y nacionales y locales|, además de llevar adelante actividades relevantes de formación y extensión. La Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Alimentación y la Agricultura FAO, consciente de este aporte, ha estado dialogando de manera progresiva con este sector, buscando generar sinergias para potenciar capacidades y ofrecer servicios más eficaces en el marco de objetivos comunes. Eso es particularmente reconocido en el actual Marco Estratégico de la FAO , donde se renueva el compromiso de la institución con actores no estatales, entre los cuales está la academia -
Book (stand-alone)Technical bookMonitoreo de la Seguridad Alimentaria y Nutricional como Apoyo a Políticas Públicas en América Latina y el Caribe 2015

No results found.Este trabajo pretende responder a uno de los desafíos que emergieron a partir del taller que se llevó a cabo en diciembre del 2014 en Colombia "“Taller regional de expertos en sistemas de monitoreo del estado del seguridad alimentaria y nutricional (SAN) como apoyo a políticas públicas en América Latina y el Caribe”: profundizar el levantamiento de las acciones de monitoreo existentes en la región y su relación con las políticas de SAN. La idea es, a partir de una mirada regional que no descono ce las particularidades locales, compartir las diversas experiencias existentes, identificar aquellas que han obtenido logros y proponer una nueva agenda de acciones, para que se pueda dar un apoyo más focalizado en la búsqueda de repuestas a las brechas y a los desafíos identificados en el monitoreo de la SAN en los países.

Book (series)Manual / guideA guide to forest–water management 2021Many people worldwide lack adequate access to clean water to meet basic needs, and many important economic activities, such as energy production and agriculture, also require water. Climate change is likely to aggravate water stress. As temperatures rise, ecosystems and the human, plant, and animal communities that depend on them will need more water to maintain their health and to thrive. Forests and trees are integral to the global water cycle and therefore vital for water security – they regulate water quantity, quality, and timing and provide protective functions against (for example) soil and coastal erosion, flooding, and avalanches. Forested watersheds provide 75 percent of our freshwater, delivering water to over half the world’s population. The purpose of A Guide to Forest–Water Management is to improve the global information base on the protective functions of forests for soil and water. It reviews emerging techniques and methodologies, provides guidance and recommendations on how to manage forests for their water ecosystem services, and offers insights into the business and economic cases for managing forests for water ecosystem services. Intact native forests and well-managed planted forests can be a relatively cheap approach to water management while generating multiple co-benefits. Water security is a significant global challenge, but this paper argues that water-centered forests can provide nature-based solutions to ensuring global water resilience.

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. -
