Book (series)FlagshipEl estado de los bosques del mundo 2018
Las vías forestales hacia el desarrollo sostenible
2018Hace casi tres años, los líderes mundiales acordaron la Agenda 2030 para el Desarrollo Sostenible de las Naciones Unidas y sus 17 Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS). Es decir, el marco central que ha de guiar las políticas de desarrollo en todo el mundo. Esta edición de El estado de los bosques del mundo tiene por objeto mejorar nuestra comprensión de la manera en la que los bosques y su gestión sostenible contribuyen a la consecución de varios ODS. Se está agotando el tiempo para los bosques del mundo: debemos trabajar en todos los sectores, reunir a las partes interesadas y adoptar medidas urgentes. En El estado de los bosques del mundo 2018 se indican las medidas que se pueden tomar para aumentar las contribuciones de los bosques y los árboles que son necesarias para acelerar los avances hacia el logro de los ODS. Ahora resulta fundamental que se adopten medidas para trabajar más eficazmente con el sector privado, y es necesario transformar el sector forestall informal a fin de generar beneficios económicos, sociales y ambientales más amplios. Hace 70 años, cuando la FAO completó su primera evaluación de los recursos forestales mundiales, la principal preocupación era si habría madera suficiente para satisfacer la demanda mundial. Ahora reconocemos la relevancia mundial más amplia de nuestros bosques y árboles. Por primera vez, El estado de los bosques del mundo 2018 presenta una evaluación de la contribución de los bosques y los árboles a nuestros paisajes y medios de subsistencia. La finalidad de esta publicación es brindar a un público mucho más amplio la posibilidad de comprender por qué los bosques y los árboles son importantes para las personas, para el planeta y para la posteridad. -

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture 2018 (SOFIA)
Meeting the sustainable development goals
2018The 2018 edition of The State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture emphasizes the sector’s role in achieving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals, and measurement of progress towards these goals. It notes the particular contributions of inland and small-scale fisheries, and highlights the importance of rights-based governance for equitable and inclusive development. As in past editions, the publication begins with a global analysis of trends in fisheries and aquaculture production, stocks, processing and use, trade and consumption, based on the latest official statistics, along with a review of the status of the world’s fishing fleets and human engagement and governance in the sector. Topics explored in Parts 2 to 4 include aquatic biodiversity; the ecosystem approach to fisheries and to aquaculture; climate change impacts and responses; the sector’s contribution to food security and human nutrition; and issues related to international trade, consumer protection and sustainable value chains. Global developments in combating illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, selected ocean pollution concerns and FAO’s efforts to improve capture fishery data are also discussed. The issue concludes with the outlook for the sector, including projections to 2030. As always, The State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture aims to provide objective, reliable and up-to-date information to a wide audience, including policy-makers, managers, scientists, stakeholders and indeed all those interested in the fisheries and aquaculture sector. -
Book (stand-alone)FlagshipThe State of the World's Biodiversity for Food and Agriculture 2019

No results found.The State of the World’s Biodiversity for Food and Agriculture presents the first global assessment of biodiversity for food and agriculture worldwide. Biodiversity for food and agriculture is the diversity of plants, animals and micro-organisms at genetic, species and ecosystem levels, present in and around crop, livestock, forest and aquatic production systems. It is essential to the structure, functions and processes of these systems, to livelihoods and food security, and to the supply of a wide range of ecosystem services. It has been managed or influenced by farmers, livestock keepers, forest dwellers, fish farmers and fisherfolk for hundreds of generations. Prepared through a participatory, country-driven process, the report draws on information from 91 country reports to provide a description of the roles and importance of biodiversity for food and agriculture, the drivers of change affecting it and its current status and trends. It describes the state of efforts to promote the sustainable use and conservation of biodiversity for food and agriculture, including through the development of supporting policies, legal frameworks, institutions and capacities. It concludes with a discussion of needs and challenges in the future management of biodiversity for food and agriculture. The report complements other global assessments prepared under the auspices of the Commission on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture, which have focused on the state of genetic resources within particular sectors of food and agriculture. -
Book (stand-alone)Technical bookTackling Climate Change through Livestock
A global assessment of emissions and mitigation opportunities
2013As renewed international efforts are needed to curb greenhouse gas emissions, the livestock sector can contribute its part. An important emitter of greenhouse gas, it also has the potential to significantly reduce its emissions. This report provides a unique global assessment of the magnitude, the sources and pathways of emissions from different livestock production systems and supply chains. Relying on life cycle assessment, statistical analysis and scenario building, it also prov ides estimates of the sector’s mitigation potential and identifies concrete options to reduce emissions. The report is a useful resource for stakeholders from livestock producers to policy-makers, researchers and civil society representatives, which also intends to inform the public debate on the role of livestock supply chains in climate change and possible solutions.
