| Abstract | After a steady decline over the past few decades, world hunger has again been on the rise in the last two years. The increase in global hunger has now stalled, and in 2022, there were about 3.8 million fewer people suffering from hunger than in 2021. Nonetheless, the world is not on track to reach the global targets for food security, nutrition and sustainable agriculture established by the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. |

| Abstract | Fisheries management in the Mediterranean is complex for several reasons, including, among others, fishing overcapacity; different levels of information development, in particular for biological and socio-economic data that were neither readily available nor standardized; insufficient and weak legal aspects and measures for monitoring, surveillance and control activities; and inadequate institutional frameworks for subregional fisheries management. |

| Abstract | National economies, food security, the environment and labour standards are all negatively impacted by illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing, which is estimated to account for between 20 and 30 percent of all fishing in the Caribbean. The deleterious effects of IUU fishing are exacerbated further by a regional context that is characterized by limited management, conservation and development capacities, as well as limited technical and operational capabilities. |

| Abstract | The impact of conflict on the agricultural sector in Iraq has been devastating, and includes damage to water systems, irrigation facilities, and other agricultural infrastructure, the disruption of value chains, and loss of personal assets, crop and livestock production, and food supplies. In this context, the North Al Jazeera irrigation project, which was launched in the early 1990s to serve an area of 70 000 ha, was severely damaged during the years of conflict in the country. |

| Abstract | The Strait of Sicily is a transition area connecting the western and eastern Mediterranean basins. Most of the pelagic and demersal fisheries resources in the area are shared between the fisheries of at least three bordering countries. The shared fisheries resources are exploited under different regimes in each country, while their transboundary nature justifies harmonized management approaches. |
