    Right to Foods for a better life and a better future: Leave no one behind
    World Food Day, 16 October 2024: Get involved!
    2024
    Food is the third most basic human need after air and water – everyone should have the right to adequate food. Human rights such as the right to food, life and liberty, work and education are recognised by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and two legally binding international covenants. Only when everyone enjoys the human right to adequate food will we be able to achieve other human rights and the Sustainable Development Goals. We all have a role to play. Governments, the private sector, farmers, academia, civil society and individuals need to work together to ensure a greater variety of nutritious, affordable, accessible, safe, and sustainable foods in order to achieve food security and healthy diets for all. Together, we can be the change.

    Support for Development of Organic Rice Farming System in West Kalimantan - TCP/INS/3702 2021
    Also available in:
    No results found.

    Indonesia is currently implementing a national programme entitled Seribu Desa Organik (a thousand organic villages) for rice, horticulture and several estate crops, with the programme on organic rice being conducted by DGFC, MoA As the focal institute, DGFC requested FAO support for the development of organic rice production in the border area of Indonesia and Malaysia in West Kalimantan province Although organic agriculture is familiar to farmers and government bodies in the province, its commercialization is relatively new Current challenges to the implementation of the national programme include the limited capacity of farmers and extension agents, a lack of certification, and inadequate post harvest and marketing facilities Most farmers, farmers’ groups and extension agents lack the technical capacity required for successful organic farming The production inputs approved for organic production are limited and the country has only one certified organic rice institution With regard to post harvest and marketing facilities, no certified organic rice processing and handling facilities or organic trade/market for organic products exist at provincial level Project interventions would focus on improving the efficiency of production and on initiating market demand to establish self sustaining organic rice value chains Where applicable, gender sensitive cultivation practices and tools to reduce gender segregated work and different pay arrangements would be explored, as well as leadership opportunities for women.

    The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2025
    Addressing high food price inflation for food security and nutrition
    2025
    While some progress and recovery have been made in recent years, the world is still above pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels and far from eradicating hunger and food insecurity by 2030 (SDG Target 2.1). Similarly, despite some progress in the global nutrition targets, the world is not on track to achieve SDG Target 2.2. Among other factors, persistent food price inflation has slowed this momentum.The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2025 highlights how elevated inflation in many countries has undermined purchasing power and, especially among low-income populations, access to healthy diets. The report documents how high food price inflation is associated with increases in food insecurity and child malnutrition. Vulnerable groups, including low-income households, women, and rural communities, can be particularly affected by food price inflation, risking setbacks in the fight against hunger and malnutrition.In response to these challenges and to prevent future price shocks, the report examines policy measures adopted by countries, and outlines what is necessary going forwards. It stresses the importance of coherent implementation of fiscal and monetary policies to stabilize markets, promote open and resilient trade, and protect vulnerable populations. Additionally, it calls for better data systems and sustained investment in resilient agrifood systems to build long-term food security and nutrition. These coordinated actions are vital to reignite progress towards ending hunger and malnutrition by 2030.
