Conclusions clave del análisis global
2017Also available in:
Intended Nationally Determined Contributions: global analysis key findings poster has a summary on the international communities commitments to the Paris Agreement through the submission of their INDCs. Countries will lead in taking transformative climate action in the agriculture sectors over the next 5 years. FAO completed an analysis on these climate actions addressed in their INDC commitments. The poster displays findings on synergies, co-benefits, planning and implementation and priority ar eas for internatinal support. The poster has a map from each region's, commitment to adaption, mitigation and food security and nutrition in their INDCs. -
ProjectProgramme / project reportAsistencia técnica para la preparación de las NDC e instrumentos de reporte conexos en los compromisos del Ecuador con la Convención Marco de Naciones Unidas para el Cambio Climático (CMNUCC) - TCP/ECU/3609 2019
Also available in:
No results found.Ecuador es uno de los países que ha suscrito y ratificadoel Acuerdo de París. El Ministerio del Ambiente (MAE), através de la Subsecretaría de Cambio Climático (SCC) esel ente encargado de establecer las políticas de cambioclimático. En este marco, el MAE se encuentra en elproceso de formulación de la Contribución Determinada aNivel Nacional de Ecuador (NDC, por sus siglas en inglés),que se prevé remitir a mediados de 2019 a la CMNUCC.Las NDC que se generen, constituirán instrumento clavede la planificación sectorial que guiará la gestión del paíshacia una economía con mayor resiliencia y baja enemisiones de carbono. Lo anterior, representará unaherramienta que permitirá el cumplimiento de loscompromisos asumidos por Ecuador y la verificaciónde estos por parte de los organismos internacionales.Este proyecto asegurará el proceso de formulación dela NDC a través de la socialización, retroalimentacióny validación a escala intersectorial y alcance nacionaldel documento. Además, permitirá la implementacióndel plan de mejoras del inventario de gases de efectoinvernadero, como paso inicial para la preparación delsegundo Informe Bienal de Actualización (IBA) del país.Tanto la NDC como el IBA, constituyen instrumentos clavede reporte del país hacia los compromisos internacionalesy permitirán seguir avanzando en la gestión de políticaspara la mitigación y adaptación al cambio climático. -
BookletCorporate general interestSoluciones agroalimentarias frente al cambio climático
La labor de la FAO dirigida a combatir la crisis climática
2024Ante el empeoramiento de la crisis climática y los lentos avances en la reducción de las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero, la adopción de prácticas sostenibles en los sistemas agroalimentarios puede servir para que los países y las comunidades se adapten, fomenten su resiliencia y mitiguen las emisiones, garantizando la seguridad alimentaria y la nutrición de una población mundial cada vez mayor.La FAO está trabajando con los países y asociados desde el nivel gubernamental hasta el comunitario para hacer frente simultáneamente a los desafíos de la seguridad alimentaria, el cambio climático y la pérdida de biodiversidad.Pero, en última instancia, nada de esto tendrá éxito a menos que el mundo se comprometa a aumentar de manera significativa la calidad y la cantidad de la financiación para el clima.

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. -
BookletCorporate general interestEmissions due to agriculture
Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018
2021Also available in:
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. -
Book (series)Technical studyThe impact of climate variability and extremes on agriculture and food security - An analysis of the evidence and case studies
Background paper for The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2018
2020Also available in:
No results found.Global climate studies show that not only temperatures are increasing and precipitation levels are becoming more varied, all projections indicate these trends will continue. It is therefore imperative that we understand changes in climate over agricultural areas and their impacts on agriculture production and food security. This study presents new analysis on the impact of changing climate on agriculture and food security, by examining the evidence on recent climate variability and extremes over agricultural areas and the impact of these on agriculture and food security. It shows that more countries are exposed to increasing climate variability and extremes and the frequency (the number of years exposed in a five-year period) and intensity (the number of types of climate extremes in a five-year period) of exposure over agricultural areas have increased. The findings of this study are compelling and bring urgency to the fact that climate variability and extremes are proliferating and intensifying and are contributing to a rise in global hunger. The world’s 2.5 billion small-scale farmers, herders, fishers, and forest-dependent people, who derive their food and income from renewable natural resources, are most at risk and affected. Actions to strengthen the resilience of livelihoods and food systems to climate variability and extremes urgently need to be scaled up and accelerated.
