Synopsis (short abstract) The FAO Country Programming Framework (CPF) for Kenya sets out priority areas to guide FAO’s partnership with and support to the Government of Kenya (GoK) at both national and county level, bringing together innovative international good practices and global standards with national and regional expertise for the next four years from 2014 to 2017. The CPF was prepared following extensive consultation with the GoK and Development Partners through both consultative workshops in 2011 and continuous bilateral discussion through 2012. In order to fully adapt to the devolved system of governance and incorporate emerging priorities, a further consultative workshop was held in early 2014 which resulted in the addition of an outcome on research, innovation and advocacy as well as better definition of outputs and activities throughout the document. The workshop also enabled FAO to clearly define a strategy for engaging with the counties. The CPF puts an immediate emphasis on reducing poverty and hunger in line with Millennium Development Goal 1 (MDG) 11 and building a more sustainable and competitive agricultural system that will contribute to the GoK’s goal of building a food secure and prosperous Kenya through a commercially-oriented and competitive agricultural sector. The impact of the CPF will be a more competitive and productive agricultural sector and increased food security for Kenyans which will contribute to the achievement of the overarching goal of the CPF which is the erad ication of hunger, food insecurity and malnutrition in Kenya.

    This Country Programming Framework (CPF) sets out three FAO’s medium term assistance priorities and results, derived from nationally defined priorities and objectives to be achieved over the four year period (2014-2017) of the country’s programming cycle. It builds on the earlier National Medium-Term Priority Framework (NMTPF) that was formulated in 2007 as equivalent to CPF. A desk review and analysis of major policy documents contributed to a coherent approach in ensuring that the CPF meets na tional priorities as stipulated in the major agriculture, forestry and fisheries policies and strategy documents. The CPF has been prepared in close collaboration with key divisions, institutions and parastatals falling under the aegis of the Ministry of Agro-Industry and Food Security and Ministry of Fisheries. Broad consultations were held with major development partners in the field of agriculture and fisheries.

It notes the particular contributions of inland and small-scale fisheries, and highlights the importance of rights-based governance for equitable and inclusive development. As in past editions, the publication begins with a global analysis of trends in fisheries and aquaculture production, stocks, processing and use, trade and consumption, based on the latest official statistics, along with a review of the status of the world’s fishing fleets and human engagement and governance in the sector. Topics explored in Parts 2 to 4 include aquatic biodiversity; the ecosystem approach to fisheries and to aquaculture; climate change impacts and responses; the sector’s contribution to food security and human nutrition; and issues related to international trade, consumer protection and sustainable value chains. Global developments in combating illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, selected ocean pollution concerns and FAO’s efforts to improve capture fishery data are also discussed. The issue concludes with the outlook for the sector, including projections to 2030.

    Food wastage footprint & Climate Change 2015
    Also available in:

    The 2011 FAO assessment of global food losses and waste estimated that each year, one-third of all food produced in the world for human consumption never reached the consumer’s table. This not only means a missed opportunity for the economy and food security, but also a waste of all the natural resources used for growing, processing, packaging, transporting and marketing food. Through an extensive literature search, the 2011 assessment of food wastage volumes gathered weight ratios of food losse s and waste for different regions of the world, different commodity groups and different steps of the supply chain. These ratios were applied to regional food mass flows of FAO’s Food Balance Sheets for the year 2007. Food wastage arises at all stages of the food supply chains for a variety of reasons that are very much dependent on the local conditions within each country. At a global level, a pattern is clearly visible; in high income regions, volumes of wasted food are higher in the processin g, distribution and consumption stages, whereas in low-income countries, food losses occur in the production and postharvesting phases.
