Poster, bannerPoster / banner / roll-up / folderRenforcer la transparence des données relatives aux forêts pour l’action climatique 2020Forests play a central role in combating climate change by absorbing and storing carbon from the atmosphere in their vegetation and soils. Better forest information is needed to make policies and decisions to protect and sustainably manage forest resources.

Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureAncrage des données – Éclairer l'action climatique et produire des rapports grâce aux inventaires forestiers nationaux 2025Cette publication offre un aperçu complet du rôle des inventaires forestiers nationaux dans le soutien à la gestion durable des forêts et la contribution aux engagements climatiques internationaux. Elle montre comment les inventaires, en tant que processus systématiques et cycliques, collectent et analysent des données sur les ressources forestières, fournissant des informations précieuses sur la santé des forêts, la biodiversité, les stocks de carbone et les fonctions socioéconomiques des forêts. La publication met en lumière l’importance des IFN pour appuyer les politiques aux niveaux national et infranational, en particulier dans le contexte de l’atténuation des changements climatiques et de l’adaptation.

Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureRenforcer le système de suivi des forêts du Ghana pour l’action climatique grâce à AIM4Forests
Optimiser l’outil d’évaluation du système national de suivi des forêts pour répondre aux priorités en matière de forêts et aux stratégies climatiques
2025L’engagement du Ghana en faveur de la gestion durable des forêts et de l’action climatique a été renforcé par l’évaluation des besoins et des lacunes qui peuvent exister. L’application de l’outil d’évaluation du système national de suivi des forêts (SNSF) a joué un rôle déterminant dans ce processus. Développé par l’équipe de l’Organisation des Nations Unies pour l’alimentation et l’agriculture de la plateforme chargée du suivi et des données sur les forêts, cet outil complet permet d’évaluer les capacités et les besoins du SNSF, aidant ainsi le Ghana à prioriser les actions qui correspondent à la fois aux objectifs nationaux et aux engagements internationaux en matière de climat.Développé dans le cadre du projet «Renforcer les capacités mondiales pour accroître la transparence dans le secteur forestier», financé par le Fonds fiduciaire de l’Initiative de renforcement des capacités pour la transparence du Fonds mondial pour l’environnement, et le programme «Accélérer le suivi innovant des forêts» (AIM4Forests), financé par le Ministère de la sécurité énergétique et Net Zero du Royaume-Uni de Grande-Bretagne et d’Irlande du Nord.

Book (series)Technical studyLatin America and the Caribbean - Regional Overview of Food Security and Nutrition 2023
Statistics and trends
2023Also available in:
The 2023 edition of the Regional Overview of Food Security and Nutrition in Latin America and the Caribbean presents an update of the data and trends in food security and nutrition in recent years. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the climate crisis and the conflict in Ukraine, as well as the economic slowdown, rising food inflation and income inequality have had an impact on regional figures. The most recent data shows that, between 2021 and 2022, progress was made in reducing hunger and food insecurity in Latin America and the Caribbean. However, the progress achieved is far from the targets established to meet SDG 2 of ending hunger. In addition, one in five people in the region cannot access a healthy diet and malnutrition in all its forms, including child stunting, micronutrient deficiencies and obesity continue to be a major challenge. -
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. -
Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food and Agriculture 2019
Moving forward on food loss and waste reduction
2019The need to reduce food loss and waste is firmly embedded in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Food loss and waste reduction is considered important for improving food security and nutrition, promoting environmental sustainability and lowering production costs. However, efforts to reduce food loss and waste will only be effective if informed by a solid understanding of the problem. This report provides new estimates of the percentage of the world’s food lost from production up to the retail level. The report also finds a vast diversity in existing estimates of losses, even for the same commodities and for the same stages in the supply chain. Clearly identifying and understanding critical loss points in specific supply chains – where considerable potential exists for reducing food losses – is crucial to deciding on appropriate measures. The report provides some guiding principles for interventions based on the objectives being pursued through food loss and waste reductions, be they in improved economic efficiency, food security and nutrition, or environmental sustainability.
