Rome, Italy, 15-19 February 1999. 1999The twenty-third session of the Committee on Fisheries was held from 15 to 19 February 1999. The Committee stressed the increasingly important role of inland capture fisheries and aquaculture in fish production and human nutrition. In this regard, it emphasized the benefits of integrated resources management, the need to combat adverse impacts on the environment and for enhanced cooperation between fishers, government agencies and other stakeholders. It discussed experiences in implementing the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries and, while expressing its appreciation for FAO's efforts to promote the application of the Code, recognized that further assistance would be required if meaningful progress was to be made. Commenting favourably on FAO's implementation of the Fisheries Programme over 1996-98, the Committee strongly recommended that Major Programme 2.3 (Fisheries) should be allocated a substantially increased share of the Organisation's Regular Programme resources. The Com mittee adopted International Plans for the Management of Fishing Capacity, for the Management and Conservation of Sharks and for Reducing Incidental Catch of Seabirds in Longline Fisheries. It expressed its support for the FAO Programme of Fisheries Assistance for Small Island States but was concerned at the limited progress achieved in securing funding for the Programme. The Committee approved the report of the Sixth Session of its Sub-Committee on Fish Trade and accepted the invitation to hold the Sub-Committee's next session in Bremen, Germany, in the year 2000. The Committee received the report on the Feasibility of Developing Non-Discriminatory Technical Guidelines for Eco-Labelling of Products from Marine Capture Fisheries held in Rome in October 1998. It noted that any eco-labelling scheme must be, inter alia, transparent, voluntary, non-discriminatory and not be an obstacle to trade but, in the course of lengthy discussions, was unable to reach consensus on FAO's future work on technical aspects of eco-labelling. The Committee considered Version 2.0 of FAO's Strategic Framework (2000-2015) to be a substantial improvement over Version 1.0 but suggested that Version 3.0 should be more concise and less descriptive, with paramount attention given to the requirements of the membership, the Organization's greatest strengths and balance between normative and field activities. Endorsing the Medium-term Perspectives for FAO's Fisheries Programme, the Committee placed high prio rity on further work in support of the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries, on implementing the three International Plans of Actions adopted at the session and on activities to support sustainable aquaculture, including the establishment of a COFI Sub-Committee on Aquaculture. The Committee welcomed the steps taken and envisaged to strengthen the functions and responsibilities of FAO regional fishery bodies and their cooperation with Non-FAO regional fishery bodies.

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. -
