Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureThe Food and Agriculture Organization and rabies prevention and control 2017

When rabies is present, farmers may be afraid to tend to fields and traders to go to markets. The poor and marginalized communities are most heavily impacted as treatments and access to treatments can be costly. Rabies is p reventable through dog vaccinations and dog population management.

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.
