Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetGuidelineVínculos entre las Directrices voluntarias para asegurar la sostenibilidad de la pesca en pequeña escala en el contexto de la seguridad alimentaria y la erradicación de la pobreza y el Marco de acción para la seguridad alimentaria y la nutrición en crisis prolongadas 2021Las comunidades pesqueras a pequeña escala de las zonas costeras o cercanas a las masas de agua dulce suelen ser muy vulnerables a una serie de peligros (cambio climático, etc.) que escapan a su control. La frecuente marginación social, económica y política hace que las comunidades pesqueras a pequeña escala sean especialmente susceptibles de verse afectadas por crisis prolongadas. Dos instrumentos internacionales ofrecen orientación sobre cómo abordar mejor estas cuestiones: las Directrices voluntarias para asegurar la pesca sostenible a pequeña escala en el contexto de la seguridad alimentaria y la erradicación de la pobreza (Directrices PPE) y el Marco de acción para la seguridad alimentaria y la nutrición en situaciones de crisis prolongadas del Comité de Seguridad Alimentaria Mundial (CFS-FFA). El informe ofrece una visión general de ambos instrumentos y explica sus sinergias. Este informe forma parte de una serie que llama la atención sobre el carácter de refuerzo mutuo de cuatro instrumentos normativos globales desarrollados a través del Comité de Seguridad Alimentaria Mundial (CSA) y las Directrices del MSP. Su aplicación sinérgica puede marcar la diferencia a la hora de permitir que los actores de la pesca a pequeña escala contribuyan a los sistemas alimentarios sostenibles proporcionando alimentos altamente nutritivos a las comunidades locales, y puede marcar la diferencia para los consumidores en los mercados nacionales, regionales e internacionales. Los cuatro instrumentos del CSA con vínculos directos con las Directrices PPE son las Directrices voluntarias del CSA en apoyo de la realización progresiva del derecho a una alimentación adecuada en el contexto de la seguridad alimentaria nacional (Directrices sobre el derecho a la alimentación), las Directrices voluntarias del CSA sobre la gobernanza responsable de la tenencia de la tierra, Pesca y Bosques en el Contexto de la Seguridad Alimentaria Nacional (VGGT), los Principios del CSA para la Inversión Responsable en la Agricultura y los Sistemas Alimentarios (Principios del CSA-RAI) y el Marco de Acción del CSA para la Seguridad Alimentaria y la Nutrición en Situaciones de Crisis Prolongadas (CFS-FFA).

BookletHigh-profileFAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022The 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.

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.
