    Also available in:

    The findings used data collected in the Lao Expenditure and Consumption Survey (LECS) conducted in 2002-03, in particular data on food consumption and expenditure, economical access to food, nutrients, and energy contained in food consumed by people according to income levels and geographical location. The results presented were obtained by using data from a sample of more than 8000 households which were then used to make estimates for all households in Lao PDR.

    The National Institute of Statistics (INE in Portuguese) is very pleased to present this report on food insecurity assessment based on food consumption statistics derived from the 2002/03 Mozambique Household Budget Survey, which took roughly six months to prepare, by a national team of three senior officers from INE, the Food Security and Nutrition Technical Secretariat (SETSAN in Portuguese), and the Ministry of Agriculture. This report is the product of activities carried-out within the frame work of the EC-FAO Food Security Information for Action Programme implemented by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations through the Statistics Division and with the financial support of the European Union. This technical report was presented to national and international users of food security information in the National Seminar on Food Security Statistics and Multisectoral Perspectives, held on 22 November during the African Week on Statistics 19-23 November 2007 at t he International Conference Centre ‘Joaquim Alberto Chissano’ in Maputo, Mozambique. I wish to take the occasion to thank all participants in the National Seminar for their contributions.

    Latin America and the Caribbean - Regional Overview of Food Security and Nutrition 2023
    Statistics and trends
    2023
    Also available in:

    The 2023 edition of the Regional Overview of Food Security and Nutrition in Latin America and the Caribbean presents an update of the data and trends in food security and nutrition in recent years. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the climate crisis and the conflict in Ukraine, as well as the economic slowdown, rising food inflation and income inequality have had an impact on regional figures. The most recent data shows that, between 2021 and 2022, progress was made in reducing hunger and food insecurity in Latin America and the Caribbean. However, the progress achieved is far from the targets established to meet SDG 2 of ending hunger. In addition, one in five people in the region cannot access a healthy diet and malnutrition in all its forms, including child stunting, micronutrient deficiencies and obesity continue to be a major challenge.

    Outcomes and lessons learned from the Koronivia UNFCCC negotiations on agriculture and food security, and the way forward after COP 27

    The Koronivia Joint Work on Agriculture (KJWA) was established at COP23 to address six topics in the agricultural sector's role in climate change. KJWA has contributed to sharing scientific and technical knowledge, but limitations remain in translating outcomes into concrete climate actions. The new four-year joint work on the implementation of climate action on agriculture and food security, which prioritizes ending hunger and considers national circumstances, includes the creation of an online portal for sharing information. The four-year agenda is shaped and broadened through the submission of views by parties, observers, and civil society and will be considered by SBSTA and SBI in June 2023.

    The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2023
    Urbanization, agrifood systems transformation and healthy diets across the rural–urban continuum
    2023
    This 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.
