Book (stand-alone)Harvesting change: Harnessing emerging technologies and innovations for agrifood system transformation
Global foresight synthesis report
2023Also available in:
No results found.FAO’s Office of Innovation is working with partners on an FAO Chief Scientist initiative on Foresight on emerging agrifood technologies and innovations, aligned with the UN 2.0 process and the FOFA 2022: engaging all key actors of agricultural innovation systems in the foresight on emerging technologies and innovations to better prepare for alternative futures, feeding it into anticipatory action, and convening the global community for constructive dialogue and knowledge exchange. The aim is to support policymakers, investors and innovation actors in their approaches and decision-making. The study assesses a selection of technologies and innovations, which potentially could be of paramount importance in addressing agrifood challenges until 2050, as well as the most important trends and drivers that will influence the emergence of agrifood technologies and innovations and their triggers of change, including some regional aspects. The goal is also to build plausible future scenarios for the evolvement of the emerging technologies and innovations in the future with the time horizon of 2050 to inform future-oriented policymaking. The report is built with inputs from a multistakeholder Delphi survey and online workshops with experts. -
Book (stand-alone)Case studies of agrifood systems technologies and innovations for climate action at country level
Compendium
2024Also available in:
No results found.Climate change is having a devastating effect on many of the world’s agrifood systems and the communities that rely on them for their livelihoods. This compendium contains summaries of forty case studies, from a total of over two hundred submitted to FAO for the Science and Innovation Forum 2023, that describe innovative efforts that have been made to address some of the challenges arising from climate change. The cases described are from low and middle income countries but climate change affects agriculture in its broadest sense, irrespective of the region where it is practised. Case studies were received from all regions and selection for inclusion was based on several important criteria – equity, adversity, innovativeness and the extent to which a case addressed problems experienced by women and youth.
