    This publication marks the first collaborative effort between the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), the World Health Organization (WHO), the World Food Programme (WFP), and the Pacific Community (SPC) to address food security and nutrition in the Pacific Islands, as well as in Maldives and Timor-Leste.The Pacific Island countries, classified as Small Island Developing States (SIDS) by the United Nations, share common characteristics and challenges with SIDS in other regions, such as the Caribbean and the Indian Ocean. These nations are geographically isolated, with relatively small land areas and vast ocean territories within their exclusive economic zones. Their populations are often dispersed across numerous small islands, and transportation within and between countries is physically demanding and costly, posing difficulties for both domestic logistics and import/export activities.Many individuals in these countries rely heavily on terrestrial and marine ecosystems for sustenance and livelihoods. However, these ecosystems are fragile and highly susceptible to natural hazards, including earthquakes, tsunamis, extreme weather events, and the impacts of climate change. Both agriculture and fisheries sectors face significant challenges as populations increase and urbanization takes place. Additionally, the shift from small-scale subsistence farming and fishing to commercial approaches further complicates the situation. Conversely, migration to urban centres or emigration overseas is leading to the decline of populations in many outer-island communities.Understanding and addressing these complex issues is crucial to improving food security and nutrition in the Pacific Island countries, as well as in Maldives and Timor-Leste. This collaborative report highlights the specific challenges faced by these nations and presents opportunities for sustainable development and resilience building in the face of evolving socioeconomic and environmental circumstances. By promoting comprehensive strategies and cooperation among stakeholders, this partnership aims to support the well-being and livelihoods of the populations in the region.

    FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022
    The 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.

    Emissions due to agriculture
    Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018

    The FAOSTAT emissions database is composed of several data domains covering the categories of the IPCC Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sector of the national GHG inventory. Energy use in agriculture is additionally included as relevant to emissions from agriculture as an economic production sector under the ISIC A statistical classification, though recognizing that, in terms of IPCC, they are instead part of the Energy sector of the national GHG inventory. FAO emissions estimates are available over the period 1961–2018 for agriculture production processes from crop and livestock activities. Land use emissions and removals are generally available only for the period 1990–2019. This analytical brief focuses on overall trends over the period 2000–2018.
