Book (stand-alone)Manual / guideGuide technique sur l’intégration des directives volontaires pour une gouvernance responsable des régimes fonciers applicables aux terres, aux pêches et aux forêts dans le contexte de la sécurité alimentaire nationale dans la mise en œuvre de la Convention des Nations Unies sur la lutte contre la désertification et la neutralité en matière de dégradation des terres 2023Réalisé conjointement par les secrétariats de l’Organisation des Nations Unies pour l’alimentation et l’agriculture (FAO) et de la Convention des Nations Unies sur la lutte contre la désertification (CNULCD), avec la contribution de multiples parties prenantes, ce guide technique traite de l’intégration des Directives volontaires pour une gouvernance responsable des régimes fonciers applicables aux terres, aux pêches et aux forêts dans le contexte de la sécurité alimentaire nationale (DV) dans la mise en oeuvre de la CNULCD et de la neutralité de la dégradation des terres (NDT), ouvrant ainsi un nouveau chapitre dans les efforts en cours pour lutter contre la désertification, la dégradation des terres et la sécheresse. Le guide décrit les applications pratiques des DV – un cadre internationalement reconnu sur la gouvernance responsable des régimes fonciers – dans le contexte de la conception et de la mise en oeuvre des initiatives NDT. Il propose une approche flexible à plusieurs voies pour aider les responsables politiques et les décideurs ainsi que les parties prenantes concernées à élaborer une réponse sur mesure aux défis fonciers les plus courants par le biais d’une série de plans nationaux, de cadres juridiques, de stratégies et de programmes d’action visant à lutter contre la dégradation des terres.

ProjectFactsheetPromouvoir l'intégration et l'adoption de pratiques de gestion durable des terres fondées sur des données probantes - GCP/GLO/337/GFF 2021Land degradation affects a considerable amount of agricultural area around the world, with nearly 2 billion ha estimated to be seriously degraded, in some cases, irreversibly so. Critically, land degradation reduces productivity and food security, disrupts vital ecosystem functions, negatively affects biodiversity and water resources, and increases carbon emissions and vulnerability to climate change. Despite this, there is limited documentation and evidence of the range of benefits generated by sustainable land management (SLM) practices across farming systems, which are ultimately necessary for convincing decision makers to invest in these measures. Using a collaborative approach involving FAO, the World Overview of Conservation Approaches and Technologies (WOCAT) and selected partners in the 15 participating countries (Argentina, Bangladesh, Bosnia and Herzegovina, China, Colombia, Ecuador, Lesotho, Morocco, Nigeria, Panama, Philippines, Thailand, Tunisia, Turkey, and Uzbekistan), this GEF funded project focused on better understanding land degradation status, drivers and threats, and creating decision support tools for combatting desertification, land degradation and drought (DLDD) and promoting SLM.

Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochurePlanification des ressources foncières (LRP) pour lutter contre la dégradation des terres et promouvoir la gestion durable des terres (GDT) 2018Les défis grandissants de la croissance démographique, la concurrence entre divers acteurs pour des ressources réduites, la dégradation des terres, la perte de biodiversité et le changement climatique exigent une utilisation rationnelle des ressources pour soutenir et améliorer la productivité et maintenir des écosystèmes résilients. La disponibilité des outils et des informations nécessaires pour soutenir et répondre aux besoins des décideurs à différentes échelles, dans les divers secteurs et au niveau des acteurs, reste limitée. Les projets et initiatives de développement durable mis en œuvre par les partenaires fournisseurs de ressources et les gouvernements exigent des outils de planification des ressources foncières qui intègrent tous les secteurs, optimisent l'utilisation de la technologie, introduisent des pratiques de GDT et suivent une approche multi-échelles centrée sur les personnes. La fiche d' informations souhaite illustrer les outils et les approches de la planification des ressources foncières.

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2020
Transforming food systems for affordable healthy diets
2020Updates for many countries have made it possible to estimate hunger in the world with greater accuracy this year. In particular, newly accessible data enabled the revision of the entire series of undernourishment estimates for China back to 2000, resulting in a substantial downward shift of the series of the number of undernourished in the world. Nevertheless, the revision confirms the trend reported in past editions: the number of people affected by hunger globally has been slowly on the rise since 2014. The report also shows that the burden of malnutrition in all its forms continues to be a challenge. There has been some progress for child stunting, low birthweight and exclusive breastfeeding, but at a pace that is still too slow. Childhood overweight is not improving and adult obesity is on the rise in all regions.The report complements the usual assessment of food security and nutrition with projections of what the world may look like in 2030, if trends of the last decade continue. Projections show that the world is not on track to achieve Zero Hunger by 2030 and, despite some progress, most indicators are also not on track to meet global nutrition targets. The food security and nutritional status of the most vulnerable population groups is likely to deteriorate further due to the health and socio economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.The report puts a spotlight on diet quality as a critical link between food security and nutrition. Meeting SDG 2 targets will only be possible if people have enough food to eat and if what they are eating is nutritious and affordable. The report also introduces new analysis of the cost and affordability of healthy diets around the world, by region and in different development contexts. It presents valuations of the health and climate-change costs associated with current food consumption patterns, as well as the potential cost savings if food consumption patterns were to shift towards healthy diets that include sustainability considerations. The report then concludes with a discussion of the policies and strategies to transform food systems to ensure affordable healthy diets, as part of the required efforts to end both hunger and all forms of malnutrition. -
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. -
