No results found.The Europe and Central Asia (ECA) region is at a key stage of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, experiencing progress in various domains – albeit with some areas witnessing limited forward movement or minor reversals. Despite varying degrees of development across countries, the region shares common challenges in enhancing food security, ensuring health and nutrition and combating environmental degradation. Analysis of the 21 Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicators on food and agriculture for which FAO has full custodianship finds that the ECA region is close to the global trend or slightly better, especially in the field of reducing hunger. However, an important portion of the population in the region still struggles to access safe and nutritious foods, and great effort is needed to lower food prices, enhance nutrition education to encourage better food choices, and make agriculture more productive and sustainable through increased government spending. Efforts also are needed to decrease the gender gap in agricultural productivity to improve women’s access to legal land rights.Data play a critical role in driving progress towards the SDGs, as gaps in data availability and quality hinder effective monitoring and policymaking. This report advocates for strengthened data systems to support evidence-based decision-making and targeted interventions. Out of the 23 indicators and 53 countries analysed, assessment could be performed on just 70 percent of data, with information missing regarding productivity, the incomes of small-scale food producers, women's land ownership, food losses, and sustainable fishing. The limited availability of data disaggregated by gender or vulnerable groups also remains an issue in the region as a whole. -
Book (stand-alone)Progress on the level of water stress
Global status and acceleration needs for SDG indicator 6.4.2, 2021
2021The global indicator on water stress tracks the level of pressure that human activities exert over natural freshwater resources, indicating the environmental sustainability of the use of water resources. A high level of water stress has negative effects on social and economic development, increasing competition and potential conflict among users. This calls for effective supply and demand management policies. Securing environmental flow requirements is essential to maintaining ecosystem health, resilient, and available for future generations. This indicator addresses the environmental component of target 6.4. In this report, you can learn more about the progress on the level of water stress globally, by country, and by major basin. More information and the methodological guidance can be found at: www.fao.org/sustainable-development-goals/ indicators/642 This report is part of a series that tracks progress towards the various targets set out in SDG 6 using the SDG global indicators.
