Book (stand-alone)General interest bookKur kursen ushqim, bën një punë të mirë!
Për grupmoshën 4 - 14 vjeç e lart
2020Also available in:
Në ditët e sotme, rreth 1,3 miliardë tonë nga i gjithë ushqimi i prodhuar për konsum humbet ose shpërdorohet çdo vit, me një kosto prej më shumë se 940 miliardë dollarë për ekonominë botërore, ndërsa rreth 815 milionë njerëz nëpër botë vuajnë nga kequshqyerja kronike dhe më shumë se 2 miliardë njerëz vuajnë nga mungesa e mikroushqyesve. Edukimi i të rinjve për të vlerësuar ushqimin, në përpjekje për të pakësuar shpërdorimin e tij, ka një rrugë të gjatë përpara për të mundësuar ndryshimin e sjelljes që kërkohet për të çrrënjosur problemin tani dhe në të ardhmen. “Kur kursen ushqim, bën një punë të mirë!” është një paketë edukative e krijuar për këtë qëllim. Ajo u përgjigjet kërkesave në rritje të publikut për informacion mbi shkaqet dhe zgjidhjet për sa i përket shpërdorimit të ushqimit dhe kërkon të përfshijë fëmijët në një përpjekje botërore për të pakësuar shpërdorimin e ushqimit dhe për të zbutur ndikimet ekonomike, mjedisore dhe sociale që lidhen me të. Paketa parashtron një perspektivë gjithëpërfshirëse të sistemeve ushqimore, njëkohësisht edhe një stil dhe mjete komunikimi të përshtatshme për ndërgjegjësimin e fëmijëve mbi këto çështje. Ajo është krijuar për t’u dhënë mundësi mësuesve dhe edukatorëve të zgjedhin dhe të zbatojnë elementët që ata i konsiderojnë si më të përshtatshëm. Gjithashtu jepen shembuj dhe këshilla se si fëmijët mund të bëhen “kursimtarë të ushqimit” si dhe agjentë aktivë të ndryshimit nëpërmjet transmetimit të mesazheve te familjet dhe miqtë e tyre.

Book (stand-alone)FlagshipThe State of the World's Biodiversity for Food and Agriculture 2019
Also available in:
No results found.The State of the World’s Biodiversity for Food and Agriculture presents the first global assessment of biodiversity for food and agriculture worldwide. Biodiversity for food and agriculture is the diversity of plants, animals and micro-organisms at genetic, species and ecosystem levels, present in and around crop, livestock, forest and aquatic production systems. It is essential to the structure, functions and processes of these systems, to livelihoods and food security, and to the supply of a wide range of ecosystem services. It has been managed or influenced by farmers, livestock keepers, forest dwellers, fish farmers and fisherfolk for hundreds of generations. Prepared through a participatory, country-driven process, the report draws on information from 91 country reports to provide a description of the roles and importance of biodiversity for food and agriculture, the drivers of change affecting it and its current status and trends. It describes the state of efforts to promote the sustainable use and conservation of biodiversity for food and agriculture, including through the development of supporting policies, legal frameworks, institutions and capacities. It concludes with a discussion of needs and challenges in the future management of biodiversity for food and agriculture. The report complements other global assessments prepared under the auspices of the Commission on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture, which have focused on the state of genetic resources within particular sectors of food and agriculture. -
Book (stand-alone)Technical bookFood Wastage Footprint. Impact on Natural Resources
Summary Report
2013Also available in:
No results found.This FAO study provides a global account of the environmental footprint of food wastage (i.e. both food loss and food waste) along the food supply chain, focusing on impacts on climate, water, land and biodiversity. A model has been developed to answer two key questions: what is the magnitude of food wastage impacts on the environment; and what are the main sources of these impacts, in terms of regions, commodities, and phases of the food supply chain involved with a view to identify en vironmental hotspots related to food wastage. -
Book (stand-alone)Technical bookLivestock's long shadow
environmental issues and options
2006This report aims to assess the full impact of the livestock sector on environmental problems, along with potential technical and policy approaches to mitigation. The assessment is based on the most recent and complete data available, taking into account direct impacts, along with the impacts of feedcrop agriculture required for livestock production. The livestock sector emerges as one of the top two or three most significant contributors to the most serious environmental problems, at every scale from local to global. The findings of this report suggest that it should be a major policy focus when dealing with problems of land degradation, climate change and air poullution, water shortage and water pollution, and loss of biodiversity.
