BookletBlue Transformation - Roadmap 2022–2030
A vision for FAO’s work on aquatic food systems
2022Also available in:
No results found.This document outlines a roadmap for the transformation of aquatic food systems - ‘Blue Transformation’, providing a compass for the FAO’s work on aquatic food systems for the period 2022–2030. This roadmap for Blue Transformation aligns with the 2021 Declaration for Sustainable Fisheries and Aquaculture of the Committee on Fisheries (COFI) of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and FAO’s Strategic Framework 2022–2031. It focuses on the elements that would maximize the contribution of aquatic food systems to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The Blue Transformation roadmap recognizes the importance of aquatic food systems as drivers of employment, economic growth, social development and environmental recovery, which all underpin the SDGs. It also recognizes the need to support the 2030 Agenda through the transformation to more efficient, inclusive, resilient and sustainable aquatic food systems for better production, better nutrition, a better environment, and a better life, leaving no one behind. -

Achieving the 2030 Agenda through empowerment of local communities
2022The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) belong to all of us. But amid resurgent conflict, climate havoc, and social and health crises, we risk losing sight of them. Even so, they represent our best shot at a better future for people and planet. This publication shows how FAO and partners continue to work for the achievement of the SDGs, project by project, field by field, and country by country.Last update 06/12/2022 -
Book (stand-alone)Integrating blue foods into national climate strategies
Enhancing nationally determined contributions and strengthening climate action
2024Also available in:
No results found.Blue or aquatic foods — foods that are wild-caught or farmed from oceans, rivers, and lakes — are an important part of global food systems. They are increasingly recognized as a priority for climate action, yet they are often overlooked in climate discussions and underfunded in mitigation and adaptation financing. Addressing climate impacts on aquatic food systems and leveraging their potential for climate action requires their integration into national climate strategies and UNFCCC processes. Climate decision-makers have an opportunity to use growing momentum and insights on blue foods to develop concrete policy strategies that can support a thriving blue food sector in the face of climate change.These guidelines are designed for audiences working on Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and other climate strategies. They offer diverse entry points for employing blue foods in climate solutions and are intended to be a starting point for setting targets and developing policies related to blue foods in climate action, offering a framework rather than an exhaustive list of actions. Policymakers can adapt these policy options to NDCs as well as consider their relevance in other areas of climate planning, including water and waste management, energy, nutrition, and economic development.The policy options outlined in these guidelines are organized into five intervention areas. In addition, we offer four enabling measures that can strengthen the implementation and monitoring of aquatic food climate solutions.
