    Empowering women in the Western Balkans
    Advancing gender equality in agricultural land ownership
    2024
    Also available in:
    Women’s economic empowerment is essential in promoting equality between women and men and a precondition for sustainable development. Women’s economic empowerment can be achieved through equal access to and control over economic resources and opportunities and the elimination of structural gender inequalities. Women and men’s de jure access to land is regulated by the formal legal system (constitutions or laws) that grant gender equality in access to land but there are laws for marriage, divorce and inheritance contradict these laws by discriminating against women and daughters.Whilst women’s land rights are vital to development, the reality remains that these rights are often unequally shared between men and women, and are routinely set aside, denied, or given insufficient protection and enforcement.

    The agriculture sector plays a key role in achieving many of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), from accessing nutritious and healthy food to developing sustainable agricultural systems, while respecting human rights and working conditions. The agrifood sustainability challenge affects each territory differently, depending on local strengths and weaknesses: understanding these realities is critical in targeting the appropriate drivers of the agriculture sector and promoting effective policies without overexploiting resources.The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) contributes key data that harmonize agricultural production data collected for 199 countries and territories. This analytical brief summarizes and highlights relevant patterns from 2010 up to 2023 featured by the latest data published on the FAOSTAT data platform.

    Ethiopia: Report on feed inventory and feed balance

    Available evidence indicates that pastoral destitution in Ethiopia is principally driven by feed and water scarcity. Feed resources ought to be considered in the broader perspective and not predominantly during emergency as is the case now. Feed inventory and balance is therefore requisite such that the country is aware of its needs, resource availability, gaps, implications and how the gap can be filled within the country. This will make feed interventions in the country effective in the immediate, medium and long term as well as provide solutions for replication in the region. This document presents feed inventory and balance for Ethiopia.

    What will be needed to realize the vision of a world free from hunger and malnutrition? After shedding light on the nature of the challenges that agriculture and food systems are facing now and throughout the 21st century, the study provides insights into what is at stake and what needs to be done. “Business as usual” is not an option. Major transformations in agricultural systems, rural economies, and natural resources management are necessary. The present study was undertaken for the quadrennial review of FAO’s strategic framework and for the preparation of the Organization Medium-Term plan 2018-2021.
