BookletCorporate general interest粮农组织为实现
健康的海洋有助于确保
2017健康的海洋比以往任何时候都重要。海洋支持着全球民生和整个社区，提供营养食物和就业机会，让实现繁荣富裕成为可能。 地球表面有70%的面积被海水所覆盖，全球有一半的氧气来自海洋，而且海洋可以起到固碳作用，为地球上80%的生物提供生存环境。 可持续发展目标14，即保护海洋和海洋资源，并以可持续方式加以使用，从而实现可持续发展，是《2030年可持续发展议程》的主要目标之一，要求国际社会携手应对地球和人类所面临的重大挑战。 致力于实现可持续发展目标14意义重大，不但有助于保护海洋资源，还能彰显海洋在全球人类福祉和社会经济发展中的重要作用。 通过监测、有约束力和无约束力的文书以及其他活动，粮农组织将与各国共同努力实现可持续发展目标14，处理好该目标与《2030年议程》其他目标之间的关系，确保实现所有三个维度的可持续发展。 本小册子介绍了粮农组织与世界各国及合作伙伴之间共同开展的活动，目标是确保以可持续方式使用我们的海洋和海洋资源，保护当代和未来后代的福祉。 -

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2020
Transforming food systems for affordable healthy diets
2020Updates for many countries have made it possible to estimate hunger in the world with greater accuracy this year. In particular, newly accessible data enabled the revision of the entire series of undernourishment estimates for China back to 2000, resulting in a substantial downward shift of the series of the number of undernourished in the world. Nevertheless, the revision confirms the trend reported in past editions: the number of people affected by hunger globally has been slowly on the rise since 2014. The report also shows that the burden of malnutrition in all its forms continues to be a challenge. There has been some progress for child stunting, low birthweight and exclusive breastfeeding, but at a pace that is still too slow. Childhood overweight is not improving and adult obesity is on the rise in all regions.The report complements the usual assessment of food security and nutrition with projections of what the world may look like in 2030, if trends of the last decade continue. Projections show that the world is not on track to achieve Zero Hunger by 2030 and, despite some progress, most indicators are also not on track to meet global nutrition targets. The food security and nutritional status of the most vulnerable population groups is likely to deteriorate further due to the health and socio economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.The report puts a spotlight on diet quality as a critical link between food security and nutrition. Meeting SDG 2 targets will only be possible if people have enough food to eat and if what they are eating is nutritious and affordable. The report also introduces new analysis of the cost and affordability of healthy diets around the world, by region and in different development contexts. It presents valuations of the health and climate-change costs associated with current food consumption patterns, as well as the potential cost savings if food consumption patterns were to shift towards healthy diets that include sustainability considerations. The report then concludes with a discussion of the policies and strategies to transform food systems to ensure affordable healthy diets, as part of the required efforts to end both hunger and all forms of malnutrition. -
Book (stand-alone)High-profileState of knowledge of soil biodiversity - Status, challenges and potentialities
Report 2020
2020Also available in:
No results found.There is increasing attention to the importance of biodiversity for food security and nutrition, especially above-ground biodiversity such as plants and animals. However, less attention is being paid to the biodiversity beneath our feet, soil biodiversity, which drives many processes that produce food or purify soil and water. This report is the result of an inclusive process involving more than 300 scientists from around the world under the auspices of the FAO’s Global Soil Partnership and its Intergovernmental Technical Panel on Soils, the Convention on Biological Diversity, the Global Soil Biodiversity Initiative, and the European Commission. It presents concisely the state of knowledge on soil biodiversity, the threats to it, and the solutions that soil biodiversity can provide to problems in different fields. It also represents a valuable contribution to raising awareness of the importance of soil biodiversity and highlighting its role in finding solutions to today's global threats. -
