No results found.The twentieth session of the FAO Working Group on the Assessment of Small Pelagic fish off Northwest Africa was postponed until 2021 due to the global pandemic situation in 2020. The 2021 meeting was divided into two digital sessions, and updated the assessments to 2020 (or 2019, if no 2020 data were available). A separate digital meeting was convened to discuss 2019 surveys for the region from the R/V Dr Fridtjof Nansen and review the progress of research using the data collected from these surveys. La vingtième session du Groupe de travail de la FAO sur l'évaluation des petits pélagiques au large de l'Afrique du Nord-Ouest a été reportée à 2021 en raison de la situation pandémique mondiale en 2020. La réunion de 2021 a été divisée en deux sessions numériques et a mis à jour les évaluations jusqu'en 2020 (ou 2019, si aucune donnée 2020 n'était disponible). Une réunion numérique distincte a été convoquée pour discuter les campagnes effectuées en 2019 par N/R Dr Fridtjof Nansen dans la région et examiner les progrès de recherches à l'aide des données collectées à partir de ces campagnes. -

No results found.The seventeenth meeting of the FAO Working Group on the Assessment of Small Pelagic Fish off Northwest Africa was held in Nouadhibou, Mauritania, 22–27 May 2017. The Group assessed the status of the small pelagic resources in Northwest Africa and made projections on the development of the status of the stocks and on future effort and catch levels. Total catch of the main small pelagic fish in the subregion increased from around 2.4 million tonnes in 2015, to 2.7 million tonnes in 2016, constituting a 13 percent increase as compared to 2015. Total catch of small pelagic fish for the period 1990–2016 has been fluctuating with an average of around 1.9 millions tonnes while the average for the last five years has been 2.6 million tonnes. La dix-septième réunion du Groupe de travail de la FAO sur l'évaluation des petits pélagiques au large de l'Afrique du Nord-Ouest s’est tenue à Nouadhibou, en Mauritanie, du 22 au 27 mai 2017. Le Groupe de travail a examiné l’état actuel des ressources de petits pélagiques en Afrique nord-occidentale et a fait des projections sur le développement de l’état des stocks ainsi que sur les futurs niveaux d’effort et de captures. Les captures totales observées des principales espèces de petits poissons pélagiques dans la sous-région ont enregistrées une augmentation en passant d´environ 2,4 millions de tonnes capturées en 2015 pour environ 2,7 millions de tonnes en 2016 (13 pour cent par rapport à 2015).

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. -
Book (stand-alone)High-profileState of knowledge of soil biodiversity - Status, challenges and potentialities
Report 2020
2020Also available in:
No results found.There is increasing attention to the importance of biodiversity for food security and nutrition, especially above-ground biodiversity such as plants and animals. However, less attention is being paid to the biodiversity beneath our feet, soil biodiversity, which drives many processes that produce food or purify soil and water. This report is the result of an inclusive process involving more than 300 scientists from around the world under the auspices of the FAO’s Global Soil Partnership and its Intergovernmental Technical Panel on Soils, the Convention on Biological Diversity, the Global Soil Biodiversity Initiative, and the European Commission. It presents concisely the state of knowledge on soil biodiversity, the threats to it, and the solutions that soil biodiversity can provide to problems in different fields. It also represents a valuable contribution to raising awareness of the importance of soil biodiversity and highlighting its role in finding solutions to today's global threats.
