Book (stand-alone)Technical reportReport of the Sixth External Program and Management Review (EPMR) of the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) - CGIAR 2008
Also available in:
No results found.The International Institute for Tropical Agriculture (IITA) is one of the longest established Centers of the CGIAR and currently is the largest in terms of budget. IITA’s target is the improvement of African development through research on agriculture. The Sixth External Program and Management Review of the Center took place between March and June 2007. The review was conducted at a time when the context of agricultural research in Africa is changing; there is both the stark reality of current poverty levels and population growth still to be accommodated (an anticipated increase of 80‐100 million more people by 2012) and a sense of renewed purpose. The Millennium Development Goal of halving the proportion of poor people is still within reach at the worldwide level, but many individual countries in Sub‐Saharan Africa will most likely not reach this goal and, in some, average poverty rates remain above 40 percent. The Africa Union’s NEPAD Comprehensive African Agricul tural Development Program (CAADP) helps provide a framework for harmonized and responsive action into which research efforts can fit. -

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.

No results found.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. -
