No Thumbnail AvailableBook (series)Technical reportReport of the Technical Consultation on Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing. Rome, Italy, 2-6 October 2000. 2000The Technical Consultation on Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing was held in Rome, Italy, from 2 to 6 October 2000. The Consultation worked towards concluding a draft international plan of action (IPOA) to prevent, deter and eliminate illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing. As a starting point, the Consultation opted to use the preliminary draft IPOA that had been elaborated at the Expert Consultation on Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing which was organized by the Governm ent of Australia in cooperation with FAO (Sydney, Australia, 15-19 May 2000). The Technical Consultation reviewed text related to the introduction of the IPOA as well as the nature and scope of IUU fishing, objectives and principles, key actions in combating IUU fishing (including all State, flag State and port State responsibilities), internationally agreed market-related measures, research, regional fisheries management organizations, special requirement of developing countries, reporting and the role of FAO. Although sound progress was made in the Consultation towards reaching agreement on many of the complex issues to be addressed in the IPOA, it was agreed by the Consultation that an additional session would be required to refine the text prior to it being submitted to the twenty-fourth Session of the Committee on Fisheries in February 2001 for consideration and possible acceptance.

Book (series)Technical studyGender and Land Statistics 2015
Also available in:
No results found.Although there is global consensus that women’s land rights are fundamental for the realization of food security and rural development, accurate and reliable statistics to monitor the attainment and realisation of these rights are still lacking. However, landownership and management statistics are becoming increasingly available as multiple international efforts are underway, including the ‘52 Minimum Set of Gender Indicators’ approved by the UN Statistical Commission, methodological work under the UN EDGE (Evidence for Data and Gender Equality) project on collecting sex disaggregated landownership data, and FAO World Programme of Agricultural Census 2000, all which encourage countries to compile and report key sex-disaggregated indicators, including those related to land rights. This document summarizes these current efforts to streamline and compile international statistics on gender and land in a unified framework, providing an entry point for the statistical work in the Gender and Land Rights Database (GLRD) The document also summarizes current available statistics in the database (and at global level) and future FAO's work to increase their availability, particularly to monitor targets of the SDGs. -

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.
