Book (stand-alone)Technical bookKenya's Tea Sector under Climate Change
An impact assessment and formulation of a climate-smart strategy
2015Also available in:
No results found.Following the Intergovernmental Group Meeting on Tea in New Delhi in 2010, FAO was requested by the Government of Kenya to assist with a climate change impact assessment of tea in Kenya and to help develop a new strategy to confront its effects. This report is the outcome of a two-year project in Kenya and offers the findings from an integrated climate impact assessment. The analysis covered (i) historical and future links between climate parameters and tea yields, (ii) a carbon life cycle analy sis, (iii) tea management scenarios under climate change using aquacrop model, and (iv) a socio-economic analysis of small holder tea farms and households and their coping options under climate change. The report also summarizes the core elements of an inclusive, multi-stakeholder-led new climate-compatible strategy for tea. -

Working for the Sustainable Development Goals
2019Also available in:
No results found.A smooth logistics process is vital for any food supply chain. Developing the necessary technical knowledge, building capacity on logistics systems to ensure agile and eff ective supply chains, and improving preparedness to emergencies are all key success factors for actors who are committed to supporting rural livelihoods. To address these challenges, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and Kühne Foundation partnered in 2014. Th e purpose of the collaboration was threefold: • to improve humanitarian logistics (the process of training, planning, implementing, and controlling the cost-effi cient fl ow and storage of goods and materials); • to enhance preparedness and logistics related to Level Th ree emergencies (where support is mobilized across the entire humanitarian system); and • to optimize food supply chains and food loss reduction, contributing to achieving the goals of FAO projects in food logistics and food loss and waste reduction. -
BookletCorporate general interestFAO’s work on South–South and Triangular Cooperation in sub-Saharan Africa
Exchanging rice-farming knowledge and technology for food security
2022More than 40 years ago, the first UN Conference on Technical Cooperation among Developing Countries, in Buenos Aires, laid important groundwork for South–South Cooperation, setting in motion a movement of reciprocal self-reliance that emphasizes developing countries collectively assisting one another. More recently, the Second High-level UN Conference on South–South Cooperation (known as BAPA+40, held in March 2019) highlighted the evolution of South–South Cooperation and its great potential for achieving development ambitions such as the UN Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development, and the African Union’s Agenda 2063.In the years between those landmark meetings, FAO has worked with a range of partners on successful South–South and Triangular Cooperation agreements to benefit Africa, including Brazil, China, the Republic of Korea, Morocco, the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela and Viet Nam.In the decade up to 2020, FAO also established and sustained two important trust funds for South–South Cooperation: the FAO–China Trust Fund (Phase II and III) and the FAO–Morocco Trust Fund.These Global South partners bring considerable knowledge and experience borne from decades of national development progress and international development assistance. Their cooperation embodies solidarity among peoples and countries of the Global South.Last update 04/10/2022
