Synopsis (short abstract) Given that parliamentary action to tackle hunger and malnutrition is more necessary than ever, AECID and FAO plan to bring parliamentarians together for the Second Global Parliamentary Summit against Hunger and Malnutrition, to be held in 2023. The forthcoming Summit aims to take stock of the issues, ideas and actions discussed during the virtual parliamentary dialogues and UNFSS and to stimulate further parliamentary action to build on progress made since the 2018 Summit. In so doing, it seeks to contribute towards a redoubling of efforts to end hunger and malnutrition in all its forms by 2030. FAO and IISD have organized a series of events to support the preparation of the forthcoming Summit and thereby ensure that it is able to facilitate useful exchanges of experiences between parliamentarians and stimulate renewed parliamentary action to tackle hunger and malnutrition. These events aim to raise parliamentarians’ awareness about important issues relevant to efforts to tackle hunger and malnutrition, to stimulate discussion, debate and knowledge exchange among parliamentarians, to share FAO tools, to capture and document relevant insights and experiences and to inform the agenda for the forthcoming Summit.

    The Second Global Parliamentary Summit against Hunger and Malnutrition (GPSHM II) took place in Valparaíso, Chile, on 15–16 June 2023. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) organized this meeting in collaboration with the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID), the National Congress of Chile, and the Government of Chile, with support from the European Commission, the Mexican Agency for International Development Cooperation (AMEXCID), and the Parliamentary Front Against Hunger of Latin America and the Caribbean. The summit included around 200 parliamentarians from all over the world who participated in person and virtually, representing over 64 countries, 15 presidents and vice-presidents of regional, subregional, and national parliaments, and representatives of parliamentary bodies and networks. The summit concluded with a unanimous agreement that led to the Global Parliamentary Pact against Hunger and Malnutrition. The pact is a non-binding political declaration encouraging collaboration, awareness-raising, and parliamentary action to ensure access to adequate food for all by fostering international cooperation and implementing evidence-based strategies to combat hunger and malnutrition worldwide.

    Emissions due to agriculture
    Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018
    2021
    Also 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.

    FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022
    Also available in:
    The FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 was endorsed by FAO Council in June 2022. This new strategy replaces the previous strategy from 2017 to better FAO's climate action with the Strategic Framework 2022-2031, and other FAO strategies that have been developed since then. The Strategy was elaborated following an inclusive process of consultation with FAO Members, FAO staff from headquarters and decentralized offices, as well as external partners. It articulates FAO's vision for agrifood systems by 2050, around three main pillars of action: at global and regional level, at country level, and at local level. The Strategy also encourages key guiding principles for action, such as science and innovation, inclusiveness, partnerships, and access to finance.
