Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureSocial protection for fisheries and aquaculture (SOCPRO4FISH)
Paraguay
2024The fisheries sector is vulnerable to poverty and marginalization, income variability, limited access to finance and savings, social and economic risks, gender inequality, and substandard working conditions. These conditions reduce the sector’s adaptive capacity, often leading to negative coping strategies to protect short-term well-being and consumption. Such strategies include removing children from school, selling productive assets, and engaging in Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated (IUU) fishing. These short-term “solutions” result in long-term detriment for households and fisheries resources. The “Social Protection for the Fisheries and Aquaculture Sector” (SocPro4Fish) project seeks to enhance adequate social protection coverage in the fisheries sector to address these risks, vulnerabilities, and challenges. In doing so, it addresses practical challenges in the implementation of social protection programs in the fisheries sector, including coherence between fisheries management and social policies, inter-institutional coordination, and limited evidence. This infographic captures the main results of the SocPro4Fish project in Paraguay. -

Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureProtection sociale dans le secteur de la pêche artisanale et l'aquaculture (SOCPRO4FISH)
Tunisie
2024Le secteur de la pêche est vulnérable à la pauvreté et à la marginalisation, à la variabilité des revenus, à un accès limité au financement et à l'épargne, ainsi qu'aux risques sociaux et économiques, à l'inégalité entre les genres et à des conditions de travail inférieures aux normes. Ces conditions réduisent la capacité du secteur à s'adapter, ce qui conduit souvent à des stratégies d'adaptation négatives pour protéger le bien-être et une consommation à court terme. Ces stratégies consistent notamment à retirer les enfants de l'école, à vendre des moyens de production et à pratiquer la pêche illicite, non déclarée et non réglementée (INN). Ces « solutions » à court terme sont préjudiciables à long terme pour les ménages et les ressources halieutiques. Le projet « Protection sociale pour le secteur de la pêche et de l'aquaculture » (SocPro4Fish) vise à améliorer la couverture de la protection sociale dans le secteur de la pêche pour faire face à ces risques, vulnérabilités et défis. Ce faisant, il aborde les défis pratiques liés à la mise en œuvre des programmes de protection sociale dans le secteur de la pêche, notamment la cohérence entre la gestion de la pêche et les politiques sociales, la coordination interinstitutionnelle et le manque de données probantes. Cette infographie présente les principaux résultats du projet SocPro4Fish en Tunisie.

Book (stand-alone)Technical bookScoping review on the role of social protection in facilitating climate change adaptation and mitigation for economic inclusion among rural populations 2024
Also available in:
No results found.Rural populations, especially small-scale producers and women, are disproportionately impacted by climate change since their livelihoods depend largely on natural resources and weather patterns. This paper reviews the available evidence on the role of social protection programmes in facilitating climate change adaptation and mitigation, with a specific emphasis on economic inclusion for agriculture-dependent households. The review also presents available evidence on the ability of social protection programmes to contribute to mitigation targets through reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and in easing the impact of climate mitigation policies on price inflation, job losses and income insecurity.The review underscores the importance of a systems approach. Both climate policies and social protection policies should incorporate specific elements to effectively complement each other. -
BookletGeneral interest bookSocial protection and inclusive climate action – A review of social protection for rural populations within Green Climate Fund projects 2025
Also available in:
No results found.Social protection is a powerful tool for delivering inclusive climate action, particularly in rural areas of low-income countries. This briefing paper presents the findings of a review of social protection for rural populations within the Green Climate Fund (GCF) portfolio. This analysis of 23 GCF-funded projects outlines both promising approaches and key challenges.Building on these insights, the GCF should scale up the use of social protection, enhancing gender and inclusion efforts, strengthening long-term system building and cross-sectoral coordination, and fostering global partnerships for financing and knowledge-sharing. Through these efforts, the GCF can play a pivotal role in ensuring climate finance reaches the most vulnerable, driving sustainable, inclusive, and just climate action -

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.
