Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureExiste-t-il des politiques et des programmes pour combattre le surpoids et l’obésité?
Forum FSN En bref
2017Le surpoids et l’obésité sont de grands problèmes de santé publique qui ne cessent de s’aggraver dans les pays en développement aussi bien que dans les pays en développement. Selon l’Organisation mondiale de la santé, 1,9 milliard d’adultes (de plus de 18 ans) étaient en surpoids en 2014, et 600 millions étaient obèses. Qui plus est, en 2013, on recensait 42 millions d’enfants de moins de 5 ans en surpoids ou obèses. -

BookletCorporate general interestRenforcer Les Politiques Sectorielles Pour Améliorer La Sécurité Alimentaire Et La Nutrition : La migration rurale
Note d'Orientation Politique No. 10
2018La migration fait partie du processus de développement et peut contribuer à assurer la sécurité alimentaire et nutritionnelle, bien que les avantages et les opportunités tangibles soient maximisés lorsque des politiques adéquates sont en place et que des conditions de travail décentes sont assurées. La relation entre la migration, la sécurité alimentaire et la nutrition est complexe et très spécifique au contexte. D'une part, l'insécurité alimentaire et nutritionnelle est l'une des causes profondes de la migration hors des zones rurales, ainsi que d'autres facteurs socio-économiques. D'autre part, la migration peut avoir des impacts différents - positifs ou négatifs - sur les quatre dimensions de la sécurité alimentaire. Le renforcement de la cohérence des politiques est essentiel pour exploiter le potentiel de développement de la migration pour la sécurité alimentaire et la nutrition. En particulier, les interventions politiques doivent à la fois réduire la pression pour migrer, s'attaquer aux causes profondes de la migration et assurer des mouvements de personnes sûrs, ordonnés et réguliers. Cette note d'orientation illustre les changements de politique qui ont permis d'assurer une plus grande synergie entre les programmes de migration rurale et de sécurité alimentaire et de nutrition.

Book (series)Technical studyThe impact of climate variability and extremes on agriculture and food security - An analysis of the evidence and case studies
Background paper for The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2018
2020Also available in:
No results found.Global climate studies show that not only temperatures are increasing and precipitation levels are becoming more varied, all projections indicate these trends will continue. It is therefore imperative that we understand changes in climate over agricultural areas and their impacts on agriculture production and food security. This study presents new analysis on the impact of changing climate on agriculture and food security, by examining the evidence on recent climate variability and extremes over agricultural areas and the impact of these on agriculture and food security. It shows that more countries are exposed to increasing climate variability and extremes and the frequency (the number of years exposed in a five-year period) and intensity (the number of types of climate extremes in a five-year period) of exposure over agricultural areas have increased. The findings of this study are compelling and bring urgency to the fact that climate variability and extremes are proliferating and intensifying and are contributing to a rise in global hunger. The world’s 2.5 billion small-scale farmers, herders, fishers, and forest-dependent people, who derive their food and income from renewable natural resources, are most at risk and affected. Actions to strengthen the resilience of livelihoods and food systems to climate variability and extremes urgently need to be scaled up and accelerated. -
Book (stand-alone)Manual / guideProcessing of fresh-cut tropical fruits and vegetables: A technical guide 2010
Also available in:
No results found.There has been a marked upward trend in production and consumption of fruits and vegetables in Asia and the Pacific in recent years. Along with rising consumer demand has come greater awareness of food safety issues and increased need for convenience and quality. Selection of high quality horticultural produce for processing and implementation of good practices during processing operations are required to assure both the quality of the produce and the safety of the final product. This technical guide reviews, from a theoretical and practical perspective, the critical issues that must be addressed for fresh-cut produce to meet consumer demand for convenience, quality and safety. A case study on fresh-cut processing in Thailand is included. The guide should be of practical value to small processors, trainers and extension workers who provide support to individuals engaged in production of fresh-cut tropical produce for sale. -
