Book (stand-alone)Technical bookVideo participativo en sistemas agroalimentarios y entornos digitales
Una guía para usuarios
2024Also available in:
El acceso al conocimiento y a la información es esencial para lograr sistemas agroalimentarios sostenibles. Dicho acceso ha avanzado considerablemente gracias al uso generalizado de las tecnologías digitales. Sin embargo, la exclusión digital y la falta de contenido adecuado son factores limitantes, especialmente en áreas rurales, lo que priva a los pequeños productores de estos servicios y obstaculiza sus oportunidades de desarrollo. Para mitigar esta brecha, las organizaciones de agricultores y las instituciones rurales están utilizando cada vez más los medios digitales de bajo costo para garantizar un acceso equitativo al conocimiento y la información. Esto implica no solo mejorar la conectividad, sino también promover la alfabetización digital, desarrollar servicios de comunicación rural centrados en los agricultores y asegurar que el contenido adecuado esté disponible para los habitantes rurales en el momento adecuado, en los formatos e idiomas apropiados. El video participativo puede utilizarse como una herramienta interactiva para promover formas de desarrollo más inclusivas y sostenibles, reflejando las realidades locales y compartiendo los valores, culturas y percepciones de las personas. Bajo un enfoque de Comunicación para el Desarrollo, las organizaciones de agricultores, instituciones rurales y profesionales pueden usar el video participativo para impulsar el desarrollo. Gracias a las herramientas digitales, el video participativo puede aplicarse ampliamente a ámbitos tan diversos como los sistemas de innovación, el marketing digital, el diálogo de políticas, la rendición de cuentas y el consentimiento informado, entre muchos otros. -

BookletCorporate general interestEmissions due to agriculture
Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018
2021Also available in:
No results found.The FAOSTAT emissions database is composed of several data domains covering the categories of the IPCC Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sector of the national GHG inventory. Energy use in agriculture is additionally included as relevant to emissions from agriculture as an economic production sector under the ISIC A statistical classification, though recognizing that, in terms of IPCC, they are instead part of the Energy sector of the national GHG inventory. FAO emissions estimates are available over the period 1961–2018 for agriculture production processes from crop and livestock activities. Land use emissions and removals are generally available only for the period 1990–2019. This analytical brief focuses on overall trends over the period 2000–2018. -
Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2021
Transforming food systems for food security, improved nutrition and affordable healthy diets for all
2021In recent years, several major drivers have put the world off track to ending world hunger and malnutrition in all its forms by 2030. The challenges have grown with the COVID-19 pandemic and related containment measures. This report presents the first global assessment of food insecurity and malnutrition for 2020 and offers some indication of what hunger might look like by 2030 in a scenario further complicated by the enduring effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. It also includes new estimates of the cost and affordability of healthy diets, which provide an important link between the food security and nutrition indicators and the analysis of their trends. Altogether, the report highlights the need for a deeper reflection on how to better address the global food security and nutrition situation.To understand how hunger and malnutrition have reached these critical levels, this report draws on the analyses of the past four editions, which have produced a vast, evidence-based body of knowledge of the major drivers behind the recent changes in food security and nutrition. These drivers, which are increasing in frequency and intensity, include conflicts, climate variability and extremes, and economic slowdowns and downturns – all exacerbated by the underlying causes of poverty and very high and persistent levels of inequality. In addition, millions of people around the world suffer from food insecurity and different forms of malnutrition because they cannot afford the cost of healthy diets. From a synthesized understanding of this knowledge, updates and additional analyses are generated to create a holistic view of the combined effects of these drivers, both on each other and on food systems, and how they negatively affect food security and nutrition around the world.In turn, the evidence informs an in-depth look at how to move from silo solutions to integrated food systems solutions. In this regard, the report proposes transformative pathways that specifically address the challenges posed by the major drivers, also highlighting the types of policy and investment portfolios required to transform food systems for food security, improved nutrition, and affordable healthy diets for all. The report observes that, while the pandemic has caused major setbacks, there is much to be learned from the vulnerabilities and inequalities it has laid bare. If taken to heart, these new insights and wisdom can help get the world back on track towards the goal of ending hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition in all its forms.
