Принципы ответственного инвестирования в сельское хозяйство
Ответственное инвестирование в сельское хозяйство, особенно в малые хозяйства, имеет особое значение для сокращения масштабов нищеты, создания возможностей для достойной занятости, укрепления продовольственной безопасности и улучшения питания и обеспечения экологической устойчивости. Инвестиции в сельское хозяйство сулят множество выгод в плане экономического развития. Однако для этого необходимо, чтобы такие инвестиции осуществлялись ответственно и были направлены непосредственно на достижение таких выгод; при этом следует избегать негативных последствий. Электронные консультации призваны развить предложения и рекомендации, подготовленные в рамках региональных консультаций, давая возможность принять в них участие отдельным лицам и организациями, которые не смогли принять участия в очных совещаниях.

Online Discussion from 6-20 February: Connecting people, sharing knowledge and increasing transparency. Using online platforms to increase access to open data, share best practices for monitoring women's land rights
Given the rapid expansion of the internet and the increasing number of users, including in the global South, the full potential of online platforms for promoting inclusive consultation of issues of high global interest is certainly not yet realised. An online discussion was organised to share views and perspectives on how online platforms could be used more creatively and effectively to share experiences on a key area where information and lessons learned through various interventions from around the world are generally dispersed, that is the area of monitoring women’s land rights.
The objective of the online discussion was twofold: (a) engage a collective reflection on ways of optimising the use of online platforms in efforts to promote equitable and sustainable natural governance and social justice; and, (b) to share experiences on approaches to monitoring women’s land rights.
The discussion was running simultaneously on landportal.info and across the following five platforms:
- Wikigender (http://www.wikigender.org/index.php/New_Home);
- E-agriculture (http://www.e-agriculture.org);
- AIMS (http://aims.fao.org);
- FSN-Forum (http://www.fao.org/fsnforum);
- Open-Development list (http://lists.okfn.org/mailman/listinfo/open-development).
This discussion will be facilitated by the International Land Coalitions (ILC) (www.landcoalition.org) Women’s Land Rights team.

This study focuses on the policy options for addressing constraints to investments, taking into consideration the work done on this topic by IFAD, and by FAO in the context of COAG, and the work of other key partners. It includes a comparative assessment of strategies for linking smallholders to food value chains as well as an assessment of the impacts on smallholders of different forms of partnership models.
