Book (stand-alone)Operational guidelines for the design, implementation and harmonization of monitoring and evaluation systems for climate-smart agriculture
Operational guidelines for the design, implementation and harmonization of national-level monitoring and evaluation systems with a focus on alignment with the Paris Agreement, 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk
2019Also available in:
No results found.Monitoring and evaluation (M&E) is recognized as critically important for tracking progress, whether it serves the purpose of accountability to donors, informs future improvements to CSA practices, or contributes to the aggregate global progress toward meeting the SDGs or the global stocktake under the Paris Agreement. There has been a growing chorus acknowledging the need to align the indicators and M&E frameworks of major donors with those of the three global agreements. Monitoring and reporting has begun on the SDGs, although the development of methodologies for various indicators is an evolving process. The development of specific indicators for the agriculture sector is also well underway for the Sendai Framework. The organizations conducting this work have recognized the need to streamline these processes. For example, they have already attempted to align several of the indicators between the SDGs and the Sendai Framework.These operational guidelines aim to address the core constraints and needs of FAO Member States on both the design and implementation of M&E systems that can simultaneously address CSA and sector reporting requirements for the 2030 Agenda, the Sendai Framework and the UNFCCC Paris Agreement. First and foremost, the guidelines acknowledge the principal need expressed by Member States that M&E systems and indicators be simple and not onerous. The challenges that have always existed with regard to M&E for CSA are still present, and are particularly pronounced for pillar 2, adaptation and resilience. These challenges to the development of indicators for pillar 2 have exhibited the greatest need for attention. -
Book (series)Regional analysis of the nationally determined contributions in Latin America
Gaps and opportunities in the agriculture and land use sectors
2020Also available in:
No results found.This report provides a unique, sector-specific synthesis of the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) from Latin America. It summarizes the substantial contributions already put forward by countries, opportunities for further action and the gaps, barriers and needs that will need to be addressed if the agriculture and land use sectors in Latin America are to raise mitigation and adaptation ambitions. The findings of this report will help member countries to reflect on their progress in advancing toward NDC priorities for agriculture and associated national climate goals including related targets under the SDGs. The analysis also helps to clarify the links between the NDCs from the region and the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (SFDRR). Finally, the report serves as a guide to FAO, as well as other international actors, for the support that will be required to help countries in the region to move forward to implement agriculture and land use sector priorities in their NDCs and ensure that future commitments from the agriculture sector are quantifiable, verifiable and sufficiently ambitious. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetMeasuring progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals at indicator, target and goal level 2023
Also available in:
No results found.The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) is fully committed to support countries’ efforts to monitor the 2030 Agenda, in particular the 21 Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicators under its custodianship. Seven years into the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, assessing whether and when the SDG targets and goals will be achieved, while leaving no one behind, is becoming a pressing need. The Office of Chief Statistician of FAO has devoted great efforts to develop and implement a standardized and sound statistical methodology to assess the current status and progress towards the SDG targets and goals. The proposed approach is used to produce FAO’s annual report “Tracking progress on food and agriculture-related SDG indicators”, which includes a statistical progress assessment and a statistical technical annex. FAO’s methodology was adopted for the production of the Global SDG Progress Chart, harmonizing the progress assessment approaches proposed by different international organizations. FAO can support countries in adopting the proposed methodology to monitor SDG progress at the national and sub-national level, and in preparing Voluntary National Reviews, including a statistical analysis of the current status and progress towards the SDG targets and goals.
