Book (series)GuidelineFaire des concessions forestières sous les tropiques un instrument pour atteindre les Objectifs de 2030: Directives volontaires 2019
Also available in:
La décision d'élaborer un ensemble de directives volontaires pour les concessions forestières sous les tropiques, dans le contexte de l'Agenda 2030, découle de la nécessité de faire progresser la mise en œuvre de la gestion durable des forêts. Dans les pays tropicaux, où les taux de déforestation diminuent mais restent alarmants et où les forêts de production publiques représentent une part importante du total des forêts de production, l'impact des concessions forestières en tant qu'instrument politique peut être considérable. Ils peuvent déterminer un comportement non durable ou durable, en fonction de l'engagement et de la capacité de ceux qui mettent en œuvre les concessions, ainsi que de l'environnement réglementaire et économique. À ce jour, les concessions forestières ont donné des résultats mitigés, comme le démontrent les différentes études et rapports régionaux réalisés dans le cadre de l'Initiative pour les concessions forestières (FCI). Cependant, cette perception négative est associée non seulement à l'efficacité des concessions forestières à atteindre les objectifs de conservation et de développement, mais également à la production de bois. L’objectif spécifique de ces Directives volontaires est de promouvoir la gestion durable des forêts naturelles de production publique dans les pays tropicaux au moyen de concessions forestières, afin d’exploiter leur contribution potentielle à la réalisation de l’Agenda 2030. Les régimes de concessions forestières sont traités ici comme des instruments de politique forestière et devraient s'aligner sur les objectifs de gestion durable des forêts convenus par les pays du FNUF. Les présentes lignes directrices ont pour objectif de faire des concessions forestières un instrument économique efficace de la politique forestière dans le cadre du Programme 2030, en les transformant en un instrument capable de gérer durablement les forêts dans toutes ses dimensions et de générer des avantages socio-économiques pour: parties prenantes concernées. -

DocumentGuidelineDirectives volontaires pour la bonne gouvernance des terres et des autres ressources naturelles
Perspectives de la société civile
2009Document de travail sur les régimes fonciers 8. Ce document articule les visions et les demandes des groupes marginalisés par rapport à la tenure des terres et des autres ressources naturelles. Il montre l’importance d’adopter une stratégie des droits de l’homme lors de l’élaboration des directives volontaires. Une telle stratégie signifie la prise en compte de la corruption et des relations inégalitaires du pouvoir à l’intérieur et autour des structures foncières dominantes. La gouvernance de l a tenure des terres et des autres ressources naturelles serait ainsi plus responsable, transparente, démocratique et participative. Disponible en anglais

BookletHigh-profileFAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022The FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 was endorsed by FAO Council in June 2022. This new strategy replaces the previous strategy from 2017 to better FAO's climate action with the Strategic Framework 2022-2031, and other FAO strategies that have been developed since then. The Strategy was elaborated following an inclusive process of consultation with FAO Members, FAO staff from headquarters and decentralized offices, as well as external partners. It articulates FAO's vision for agrifood systems by 2050, around three main pillars of action: at global and regional level, at country level, and at local level. The Strategy also encourages key guiding principles for action, such as science and innovation, inclusiveness, partnerships, and access to finance.

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. -
Journal, magazine, bulletinBulletinUrbanisation and soil sealing
ITPS Soil Letters #5
2022Also available in:
No results found.An important service provided by soils is the support of human settlements, structures and infrastructures. However, once urbanised, soils are usually deeply affected, and often experience the loss of many soil functions, such as the ability to support plant growth and water infiltration, store organic carbon and host biodiversity. The objective of this letter is to draw attention to the issues related to soil sealing and urbanisation, and to provide a brief discussion of what actions need to be taken to prevent excessive loss of soil ecosystem functions and services due to urban development.
