No results found.En el año 2009, en el contexto de la crisis alimentaria global, la FAO, IFAD e IIED publicaron un estudio sobre el avance del fenómeno de Land Grabbing o Acaparamiento de Tierras en África.1 En este contexto, la Oficina Regional de la FAO para América Latina y el Caribe (RLC), tomó la iniciativa de buscar antecedentes que permitieran verificar si el fenómeno de Land Grabbing se estaba manifestando y en qué medida en América Latina y el Caribe. Con ese objetivo, la FAO-RLC sol icitó en el año 2010, la elaboración de estudios nacionales en diecisiete (17) países los que debían contemplar la dinámica de concentración de tierras desde el 2004, años que coinciden con el período considerado para el estudio de FAO, IFAD e IIED en África. Los trabajos se realizaron en el transcurso de 2010 y en enero de 2011 se llevó a cabo, con la participación de los consultores que elaboraron los estudios nacionales, un seminario en donde éstos se presentaron, analizar on y discutieron. -

Also available in:
No results found.What will be needed to realize the vision of a world free from hunger and malnutrition? After shedding light on the nature of the challenges that agriculture and food systems are facing now and throughout the 21st century, the study provides insights into what is at stake and what needs to be done. “Business as usual” is not an option. Major transformations in agricultural systems, rural economies, and natural resources management are necessary. The present study was undertaken for the quadrennial review of FAO’s strategic framework and for the preparation of the Organization Medium-Term plan 2018-2021. -
DocumentOther documentReducing inequalities for food security and nutrition
A report by the High Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition
2023The report “Reducing inequalities for food security and nutrition” has been developed by the High Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition (HLPE-FSN) following the request by the United Nations Committee on World Food Security (CFS) as included in its Programme of Work (MYPoW 2020-2023). In particular, the CFS requested the HLPE-FSN to develop a report to: (i) analyse evidence relating to how inequalities in access to assets (particularly land, other natural resources and finance) and in incomes within food systems impede opportunities for many actors to overcome food insecurity and malnutrition; (ii) analyse the drivers of inequalities and provide recommendations on entry points to address these; and (iii) identify areas requiring further research and data collection. This report will inform the ensuing CFS thematic workstream on inequalities, aiming at addressing the root causes of food insecurity with a focus on those “most affected by hunger and malnutrition”. -
Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2022
Repurposing food and agricultural policies to make healthy diets more affordable
2022This year’s report should dispel any lingering doubts that the world is moving backwards in its efforts to end hunger, food insecurity and malnutrition in all its forms. We are now only eight years away from 2030, but the distance to reach many of the SDG 2 targets is growing wider each year. There are indeed efforts to make progress towards SDG 2, yet they are proving insufficient in the face of a more challenging and uncertain context. The intensification of the major drivers behind recent food insecurity and malnutrition trends (i.e. conflict, climate extremes and economic shocks) combined with the high cost of nutritious foods and growing inequalities will continue to challenge food security and nutrition. This will be the case until agrifood systems are transformed, become more resilient and are delivering lower cost nutritious foods and affordable healthy diets for all, sustainably and inclusively.
