BookletAnnual reportFAO Viet Nam in action: 2024 and beyond
Championing agrifood systems transformation for a sustainable future
2025Also available in:
No results found.As of mid-2025, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in Viet Nam reflects on a pivotal 2024, celebrating a shared development agenda that translated commitments into impactful results for agrifood systems. This retrospective also casts a forward glance, recognizing that the ongoing success hinges on continued collective action for Viet Nam's farmers and agricultural communities. The overarching goal, "Championing agrifood systems transformation for a sustainable future," is actively pursued through the "four betters" agenda, which robustly underpins the achievement of key Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).A central achievement in 2024 was the endorsement of the Partnership Agreement for Transparent, Responsible and Sustainable Food Systems Transformation in Viet Nam (FST-Partnership), marking a significant stride in realizing efficient, inclusive, resilient, and sustainable agrifood systems. The FAO Director-General’s early 2025 visit underscored this commitment, emphasizing that effective implementation will drive rapid progress across multiple SDGs.While celebrating successes, 2024 also presented complex challenges, notably the devastating Typhoon Yagi. FAO's swift response highlighted the intensifying climate threat and the critical importance of embedding climate resilience within vulnerable communities. The Emergency Centre for Transboundary Animal Diseases (ECTAD) team also remains vigilant on the One Health front, demonstrating innovation to achieve results despite funding constraints. With the 2030 SDG deadline looming, the report calls for redoubled efforts towards sustainable agrifood systems. It concludes by acknowledging the recent changes in Viet Nam’s government structure, reaffirming FAO's over 40-year fruitful partnership with the newly formed Ministry of Agriculture and Environment. -

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2021
Transforming food systems for food security, improved nutrition and affordable healthy diets for all
2021In recent years, several major drivers have put the world off track to ending world hunger and malnutrition in all its forms by 2030. The challenges have grown with the COVID-19 pandemic and related containment measures. This report presents the first global assessment of food insecurity and malnutrition for 2020 and offers some indication of what hunger might look like by 2030 in a scenario further complicated by the enduring effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. It also includes new estimates of the cost and affordability of healthy diets, which provide an important link between the food security and nutrition indicators and the analysis of their trends. Altogether, the report highlights the need for a deeper reflection on how to better address the global food security and nutrition situation.To understand how hunger and malnutrition have reached these critical levels, this report draws on the analyses of the past four editions, which have produced a vast, evidence-based body of knowledge of the major drivers behind the recent changes in food security and nutrition. These drivers, which are increasing in frequency and intensity, include conflicts, climate variability and extremes, and economic slowdowns and downturns – all exacerbated by the underlying causes of poverty and very high and persistent levels of inequality. In addition, millions of people around the world suffer from food insecurity and different forms of malnutrition because they cannot afford the cost of healthy diets. From a synthesized understanding of this knowledge, updates and additional analyses are generated to create a holistic view of the combined effects of these drivers, both on each other and on food systems, and how they negatively affect food security and nutrition around the world.In turn, the evidence informs an in-depth look at how to move from silo solutions to integrated food systems solutions. In this regard, the report proposes transformative pathways that specifically address the challenges posed by the major drivers, also highlighting the types of policy and investment portfolios required to transform food systems for food security, improved nutrition, and affordable healthy diets for all. The report observes that, while the pandemic has caused major setbacks, there is much to be learned from the vulnerabilities and inequalities it has laid bare. If taken to heart, these new insights and wisdom can help get the world back on track towards the goal of ending hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition in all its forms. -
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.
