Durante el año 2022, las exportaciones agroalimentarias de ALC representaron el 18 % de las exportaciones de productos agroalimentarios del mundo, lo que significó un porcentaje mayor en comparación con 2021, en donde la participación de ALC fue del 15 % 1 . La región durante el trienio 2020 2022 exportó el 42,15 % de los productos agroalimentarios que produce, medido en calorías equivalente, y se espera alcance 42,56 % el año 2032 2 . A pesar de la importante orientación exportadora de la región varios países son también importadores netos, como El Salvador, Panamá, y la mayor parte del Caribe, siendo el comercio intrarregional aún bajo, representando menos del 15 % de sus exportaciones y el 40 % de sus importaciones. -
Book (stand-alone)Gender, agrifood value chains and climate-resilient agriculture in Small Island Developing States
Evidence from: Barbados and Saint Lucia in the Caribbean, Palau and Samoa in the Pacific, Cabo Verde,the Comoros and Sao Tome and Principe in the Atlantic, Indian Ocean and South China Sea (AIS) region
2022In the current context of climate change, focusing on gender equality in the Small Island Developing States (SIDS) can drive improvements in resilience, food security and nutrition. This document seeks to enrich the knowledge and evidence base on gender, food systems and resilience in the SIDS of the Caribbean, the Pacific, and the Atlantic, Indian Ocean and South China Sea (AIS) region, providing evidence from Barbados, Cabo Verde, Comoros (the), Palau, Saint Lucia, Samoa and Sao Tome and Principe. It focuses specifically on gender-related roles, gender gaps and traditional knowledge in agriculture and natural resource management to better support women’s participation in value chains and the benefits they receive from value chain development. It calls for radical transformations to build resilient livelihoods, overcome gender inequalities and help rural women and men reduce their exposure and vulnerability to climate change and natural disasters. Furthermore, the transformations called for, which focus on gender equity, will increase the resilience of rural livelihoods to unforeseen events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly in view of the critical role women play in ensuring food security and nutrition.
