Book (stand-alone)GuidelineGuidance for One Health field epidemiology curriculum development
A supplemental manual to the Competencies for One Health field epidemiology (COHFE) framework
2024Also available in:
No results found.This document details higher order One Health competencies at the subdomain level based on competencies defined in the 14 domains of the COHFE Framework. The subdomain level higher order competencies are defined in Table X.1 for each domain (numbered by domain) at three training levels (frontline, intermediate and advanced), with each level building on the previous level so that demonstration of the previous level’s competencies is required in addition to those indicated at the given level. The guidance also recommends and describes curriculum topics and provides example learning objectives for all three training levels. -
Book (stand-alone)GuidelineGuidance for One Health field epidemiology continuing education programmes
A supplemental manual to the Competencies for One Health field epidemiology (COHFE) framework
2024Also available in:
No results found.This document details the guidance for criteria to develop continuing education (CE) programming in field epidemiology. The document provides information for minimum guidance to implement a CE programme at the country level. The need for field epidemiologists to strengthen a country’s capabilities in disease surveillance, outbreak investigation and response is recognized by the global health sector. Several countries already have applied epidemiology training programmes (e.g., FETP, FETPV,ISAVET) to develop or strengthen these capabilities.FAO, WHO and WOAH recognize that One Health is an integral part of these programmes, in accordance with the definition of One Health from the One Health High-Level Expert Panel. -
Book (stand-alone)GuidelineGuidance for One Health field epidemiology learning evaluation and certification
A supplemental manual to the Competencies for One Health field epidemiology (COHFE) framework
2024Also available in:
No results found.This guidance was created to assist One Health field epidemiology training programmes determine how best to evaluate their participants and create a set of certification criteria that best fits their country context. The document is intended for in-service training programmes only and does not necessarily apply to preservice training programmes, which typically involve more didactic learning and limited field experiences. While the focus of the document is to support One Health field epidemiology training programmes, this guidance depends heavily on practices from existing primarily sector specific programmes and therefore may also be applicable for other types of FETPs.

Book (series)Technical studyAmérica Latina y el Caribe. Panorama Regional de la Seguridad Alimentaria y la Nutrición 2024
Fomentando la resiliencia frente a la variabilidad del clima y los eventos extremos para la seguridad alimentaria y la nutrición
2025Also available in:
En América Latina y el Caribe se ha logrado reducir el hambre y la inseguridad alimentaria durante dos años consecutivos, gracias a programas de protección social y esfuerzos de recuperación post-COVID. Sin embargo, persisten desigualdades significativas, que afectan especialmente a las mujeres, las poblaciones rurales y los grupos vulnerables. Las dietas saludables siguen siendo la más caras en comparación a las otras regiones. En este contexto, la variabilidad del clima y los fenómenos climáticos extremos afectan la seguridad alimentaria en términos de disponibilidad, acceso, utilización y estabilidad. Estos fenómenos reducen la productividad agrícola, interrumpen las cadenas de suministro y aumentan los precios de los alimentos. Las poblaciones vulnerables son las más afectadas, y los hábitos alimentarios también cambian. La variabilidad climática y los fenenómenos climáticos extremos empeora la situación y refuerza las causas de la malnutrición. La evolución de los patrones climáticos impacta negativamente todas las dimensiones de la seguridad alimentaria. Según los actuales indicadores, la región no alcanzará la mayoría de las metas de nutrición de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible. Por ello, es urgente transformar los sistemas agroalimentarios para hacerlos más resilientes y sostenibles, enfrentando los desafíos climáticos y la desigualdad. En esta publicación se proponen políticas para acelerar el progreso hacia la seguridad alimentaria, abordar el acceso limitado a dietas saludables y reducir la malnutrición. -
Book (stand-alone)High-profileRenewable energy for agri-food systems: Towards the Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement 2021
Also available in:
No results found.In 2021, the United Nations Secretary-General will convene the Food Systems Summit to advance dialogue and action towards transforming the way the world produces, consumes and thinks about food guided by the overarching vision of a fairer, more sustainable world. The Secretary-General will also convene the High-Level Dialogue on Energy (HLDE) to promote the implementation of the energy-related goals and targets of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Given the inextricable linkages between the energy and agriculture sectors, integrating the nexus perspective within the FSS and the HLDE is crucial to formulate a joint vision of actions to advance the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Paris Agreement. In this context, IRENA and FAO have decided to jointly develop a report on the role of renewable energy used in food chain to advance energy and food security as well as climate action towards the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement. While energy has a key enabling role in food system transformation and innovation in agriculture, its current use is unsustainable because of the high dependence on fossil fuels and frequent access to energy in developing countries. The challenge is to disconnect fossil fuel use from food system transformation without hampering food security. The use of renewable energy in food systems offers vast opportunities to address this challenge and help food systems meet their energy needs while advancing rural development while contributing to rural development and climate action. -
