Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureFAO's contribution to sustaining peace
Corporate Framework to support sustainable peace in the context of Agenda 2030
2018Also available in:
Since its founding in 1945, FAO's core work supporting food security, nutrition, poverty reduction and sustainable agriculture has helped to reduce the economic, political, social and environmental drivers of conflict. Through its work, FAO fosters social cohesion, generates peace dividends, reduces conflict drivers and builds the legitimacy and capacity of governments. Following the UN Secretary-General's prioritization of sustaining peace across the UN system and given the recent (May 2018) UN Security Council resolution explicitly recognizing the link between conflict and hunger, the brochure summarizes FAO's main contribution to sustaining peace through the Corporate Framework to support sustainable peace in the context of Agenda 2030. -

FAO-WFP early warnings on acute food insecurity: June to September 2022 Outlook
2022Also available in:
No results found.The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Food Programme (WFP) warn that acute food insecurity is likely to deteriorate further in 20 countries or situations (including two regional clusters) – called hunger hotspots – during the outlook period from June to September 2022. Acute food insecurity globally continues to escalate. The recently published 2022 Global Report on Food Crises alerts that 193 million people were facing Crisis or worse (Integrated Food Security Phase Classification [IPC]/Cadre Harmonisé [CH] Phase 3 or above) across 53 countries or territories in 2021. This increase must be interpreted with care, given that it can be attributed to both a worsening acute food insecurity situation and a substantial (22 percent) expansion in the population analysed between 2020 and 2021. In addition, an all-time high of up to 49 million people in 46 countries could now be at risk of falling into famine or famine-like conditions, unless they receive immediate life and livelihoods-saving assistance. This includes 750 000 people already in Catastrophe (IPC/CH Phase 5).
