Also available in:
This brochure for Latin America and the Caribbean highlights the organization's four strategic priorities for transforming agrifood systems in the region between 2024 and 2025. Based on its 2022-2031 Strategic Framework, FAO seeks more efficient, inclusive, and sustainable production, improved nutrition, sustainable management of natural resources, and reduced inequalities. This approach aligns with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, promoting better production, nutrition, environment, and quality of life.Each of these priorities addresses key challenges such as hunger, environmental degradation, and poverty, promoting innovative solutions and sustainable practices. The priorities include, among others, promoting healthy diets, using innovative technologies in agriculture, efficient management of natural resources, and investing in rural communities. These actions are designed to ensure that no one is left behind in the transformation of food systems.The document also emphasizes the importance of inclusive public policies and programs like the Hand-in-Hand Initiative, which aims to strengthen investment in agriculture and rural development, focusing on the most vulnerable communities. Through these actions, FAO aims to create resilient agrifood systems that benefit the population, the environment, and the economy of Latin America and the Caribbean. -

Book (series)Latin America and the Caribbean Regional Overview of Food Security and Nutrition 2024
Building resilience to climate variability and extremes for food security and nutrition
2025Also available in:
Latin America and the Caribbean have seen a decline in hunger and food insecurity for two years, driven by social protection programs and post-COVID recovery. However, disparities persist, especially among women, rural populations, and vulnerable groups. The region is unlikely to meet most nutrition targets, and healthy diets remain expensive. Climate variability is increasing in the region, affecting food security across availability, access, utilization, and stability. This climate impact reduces agricultural productivity, disrupts food supply chains, and raises food prices. Vulnerable populations are most affected, with changing diets further exacerbating the situation. Climate change is worsening food security and the causes of malnutrition.
