Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureReducing protection risks and women's work burden through improved energy access. Safe Access to Fuel and Energy Briefing Note 2018
Also available in:
No results found.Women and children are often not only responsible for cooking but also tasked with collecting the fuel needed to prepare meals. This often involves walking long distances to collect fuelwood which exposes them to protection risks and a significant work burden, especially in protracted crises. As a result, less time is left for child care and productive activities that can provide additional income for the household. Improving access to sustainable energy is key to tackle these issues. At the same time, it is of crucial importance to include in-depth gender analyses when planning and implementing SAFE-related projects. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureImproving nutrition through enhanced energy access - Safe Access to Fuel and Energy Briefing Note 2018
Also available in:
No results found.Most food needs to be cooked before being consumed. In protracted crises, acute emergencies or multi-hazard contexts, vulnerable populations often face significant risks to their health and nutrition due to inadequate access to the means of cooking their food. Providing access to reliable and affordable energy and improved cooking technologies should be an important part of nutrition-sensitive interventions. This is at the core of the FAO SAFE approach. A direct way to tackle these issues is by promoting the use of fuel-efficient stoves and fuel-saving cooking practices. -

No results found.Efforts to ensure sustainable peace can help to support access to safe, reliable and affordable energy in the long term. Energy access in turn can help to reduce conflict due to specific food security and livelihood benefits, such as the ability to safely cook food and carry out income-generating activities. An in-depth analysis of context-specific conflict drivers is a necessary first step in working towards sustainable peace.

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.
