Sustainable Agricultural Development for Food Security and Nutrition: What Roles for Livestock? A Report by the High Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition. HLPE Report 10

This report addresses the economic, environmental and social dimensions of agricultural development, with the objective of ensuring food and nutrition security, in terms of availability, access, utilization and stability. It focuses on the livestock component of agricultural systems, given the role of livestock as an engine for the development of the agriculture and food sector, and as a driver of major economic, social and environmental changes in food systems worldwide. The report identifies challenges to the achievement of sustainability in livestock systems and possible pathways towards sustainable agricultural development that contribute to current and future food security and nutrition. The report concludes with recommendations for appropriate [...]

Meeting Fuel and Energy Needs in Protracted Crises. The SAFE approach

This note focuses on the topic of access to fuel and energy in protracted crises, and the possible solutions using the SAFE approach, illustrated by case studies from FAO's interventions in protracted crisis situations. Access to fuel and energy – vital for food security – is often highly constrained in protracted crises. The risks posed by limited access to fuel and energy are multiple and diverse depending on the context, including malnutrition, environmental degradation, a high work burden for women, gender-based violence (GBV) and unsustainable livelihood activities. The inter-agency Safe Access to Fuel and Energy (SAFE) initiative and FAO’s work on [...]

FAO's Bioenergy and Food Security (BEFS) Approach. Implementation Guide

The Bioenergy and Food Security (BEFS) Approach has been developed by FAO to support countries in designing and implementing sustainable bioenergy policies and strategies. The approach promotes food and energy security and contributes to agricultural and rural development. It consists of tools and guidance to support countries through the main stages of the bioenergy policy development and implementation process. Countries may decide to use specific components of the BEFS Approach depending on the level of bioenergy development, and the status of bioenergy policy formulation and implementation.  This approach can be implemented directly by governments, experts in the field and other stakeholders [...]

Integrated Policy for Forests, Food Security and Sustainable Livelihoods: Lessons From the Republic of Korea

In the 1950s and 1960s, the Republic of Korea was one of the poorest and least developed countries in the world. Deforestation had stripped the country of half its forest cover, contributing to severe erosion, repetitive flood and drought damage and a decrease in agricultural production which threatened national food security. Recognizing the importance of forests’ watershed and soil protection functions in restoring agricultural productivity, the government undertook an intensive forest rehabilitation effort. The implementation of two Ten-Year Forest Rehabilitation Plans in the 1970s and 1980s not only fully restored the country’s forest cover, but also delivered food security benefits [...]

Adopting a Territorial Approach to Food Security and Nutrition Policy

The calls for action are numerous: at the United Nations Rio+20 Conference on Sustainable Development in September 2012, governments reaffirmed the fundamental right of everyone to be free from hunger. The same year, the UN Secretary General launched the “Zero Hunger Challenge” campaign to end hunger globally. The United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, endorsed in September 2015, confirms the importance of achieving food security, and eradicating hunger is the second Sustainable Development Goal (SDG 2). Since 1990, much progress has been made in reducing hunger. Yet, challenges to food security and nutrition remain as pressing as ever. Around [...]

Renforcer la coherence entre l’agriculture et la protection sociale pour lutter contre la pauvreté et la faim en Afrique: outil de diagnostic

L’agriculture et la protection sociale sont intrinsèquement liées dans le contexte des moyens d’existence ruraux en Afrique. La subsistance des familles pauvres et en situation d’insécurité alimentaire dépend principalement de l’agriculture et, dans une moindre mesure, de revenus non agricoles et de transferts de fonds privés; ces familles sont donc la cible première des interventions de protection sociale. Lorsqu’elle s’inscrit dans le cadre plus vaste du développement rural, une cohérence accrue entre les interventions agricoles et de protection sociale contribue à améliorer le bien-être des petits exploitants familiaux pauvres en facilitant leur inclusion dans l’économie productive, en améliorant leurs capacités [...]

Renforcer la cohérence entre l’agriculture et la protection sociale pour lutter contre la faim et la pauvreté en Afrique: Cadre d’analyse et d’action

L’agriculture et la protection sociale sont intrinsèquement liées dans le contexte des moyens d’existence ruraux en Afrique. La subsistance des familles pauvres et en situation d’insécurité alimentaire dépend principalement de l’agriculture et, dans une moindre mesure, de revenus non agricoles et de transferts de fonds privés; ces familles sont donc la cible première des interventions de protection sociale (FAO, 2015a). Lorsqu’elle s’inscrit dans le cadre plus vaste du développement rural, une cohérence accrue entre les interventions agricoles et de protection sociale contribue à améliorer le bien-être des petits exploitants familiaux pauvres en facilitant leur inclusion dans l’économie productive, en améliorant [...]
