新伙伴关系关注中小企业的参与,将提高城市粮食系统的营养敏感度
2019年3月8日,罗马 — 粮农组织和全球改善营养联盟(GAIN)同意携手合作,共同改善发展中国家所有人对营养食物的获取和购买力。 该伙伴关系于星期四签署,旨在推动包容、有效的农业和粮食系统,关注能够吸引中小企业参与推广市场解决方案的新方法,并将其作为改善营养的重要工具。粮农组织和全球营养改善联盟还将努力提高城市粮食系统的营养敏感度,为此,将向全球营养改善联盟的"城市营养治理计划"和粮农组织的《城市粮食议程》提供支持。 目前,超过50%的全球人口居住在城市地区,预计到2050年,这一比例将上升至70%。这为粮食生产和供应带来了巨大挑战。受粮食价格波动和快速上涨、自然灾害和气候变化的影响,城市贫困人口的粮食和营养安全状况仍面临风险。 粮农组织总干事若泽▪格拉齐亚诺▪达席尔瓦提到了联合国大会最近通过的决议"全球卫生与外交政策:通过改善营养建立更健康的世界",并号召加大健康饮食的推广力度。"我们必须将更多精力放在推广健康饮食上,特别是在如今肥胖和超重蔓延的时候。我们知道造成饥饿的主要原因,也知道如何战胜它。"但是,他指出仍需要加大监测和监管,以提高粮食系统的安全性和抵御力。"私营部门在这方面要发挥关键作用,没有它们,我们无法推进这一议程。"

FAO and Rabobank renew partnership to help smallholders participate in agribusiness boom
Africa boasts huge potential for social and economic development, with agribusiness poised to play a major role. Without policies and partnerships that enable smallholder farmers - including subsistence farmers and pastoralists - to participate in and benefit from the growth, that opportunity will turn into risk, FAO Director-General José Graziano da Silva said today.
