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.

Book (series)Technical reportМировая реферативная база почвенных ресурсов 2014
Международная система почвенной классификации для диагностики почв и создания легенд почвенных карт - Исправленная и дополненная версия 2015
2018Легенды Почвенной карты мира (1974), созданной под эгидой ФАО и ЮНЕСКО (Soil Map of the World, FAO-UNESCO, 1971–1981) и Пересмотренной легенды (1988). В 1980 г. Международное общество почвоведов (International Society of Soil Science, ISSS, переименованное в 2002 г. в Международный союз наук о почве – International Union of Soil Sciences, IUSS) сформировало рабочую группу под названием «Между- народная реферативная база для почвенной классификации» (International Reference Base for Soil Classification). В ее задачи входило создание детальной научно обосно-ванной международной классификационной системы почв. В 1992 г. рабочая группа была переименована в «Мировую реферативную базу почвенных ресурсов» (World Reference Base for Soil Resources); результатами ее работы было первое издание WRB в 1998 г. (FAO, 1998) и второе издание в 2006 г. (IUSS Working Group WRB, 2006). В 1998 г. Мировая реферативная база была одобрена Советом Международного обще- ства почвоведов (ISSS Council) как официально рекомендуемая терминология для использования в названиях и классификации почв. История Мировой реферативной базы до 2006 г. подробно изложена во второй версии WRB (IUSS Working Group WRB, 2006). -
Book (stand-alone)Technical bookWhat does it take? The role of incentives in forest plantation development in Asia and the Pacific. Executive Summary 2004
Also available in:
No results found.Over the past two decades, political developments as well as macro-economic and extra-sectoral policies have affected the forests of Asia and the Pacific to an unprecedented extent, resulting in deforestation and forest degradation. Responding to the diminishing capacity of the region's natural forests to produce timber, many countries have turned to forest plantations. Governments and their respective forest agencies are asking what it takes to encourage non-government entities to grow trees. Y et little is known about the role that direct and indirect incentives have in influencing plantation development. This executive summary of the main publication provides an overview of plantation development in the Asia-Pacific region; introduces the concept of, and rationale for, providing incentives; and summarizes the main insights gained from the case studies. The picture that surfaces is sufficiently coherent to conclude with guiding principles for supporting plantation development.
