This paper outlines the importance of tracking adaptation in the
context of the implementation of the Paris Agreement and provides a
flexible and consistent indicator framework for tracking adaptation
in agricultural sectors (including agriculture, forestry, and
fisheries and aquaculture) at national level. The framework is
based on the recognition that adaptation should be tracked by
analyzing a number of different indicators across agricultural
sub-sectors.
Thirty-eight pesticides were evaluated for toxicity and residues at
the 2017 Joint Meeting of the FAO Panel of Experts on Pesticide
Residues in Food and the Environment and the WHO Core Assessment
Group on Pesticide Residues (JMPR). This included 8 new compounds
and 5 compounds that were due for re-evaluation. The report
contains recommendations on maximum pesticide residue limits and
general principles for dietary risk assessment. These
recommendations are proposed for use by governments and other
interested parties. The JMPR report and evaluations are the only
global reviews available of pesticide residue data.
Against a global backdrop of climate change, widespread food
insecurity, deforestation and forest degradation, this paper
highlights the role of sustainable woodfuel in improving food
security. It provides insights into how this role can be
strengthened at all stages of production, trade and use,
particularly for the many vulnerable groups who depend on woodfuel.
With adequate policy and legal frameworks in place, woodfuel
production and harvesting can be sustainable and serve as a major
source of green energy. In addition, the widespread availability of
woodfuel, and enormous market for it, present opportunities for
employment and for sustainable value chains.
This workshop covered partnerships, sponsorship and technical
assistance to promote monitoring, control and surveillance (MCS);
new MCS technologies and methodologies; case studies on MCS use in
indigenous fishing communities and archipelago nations; preparation

presentations on instruments to fight illegal, unreported and
unregulated (IUU) fishing; and much more.
Desde la decada de 1990, las transformaciones rurales han ayudado a
millones de personas a superar el umbral de la pobreza aun
permaneciendo en las zonas rurales. El desarrollo de las economias
rurales ayuda a crear empleo para los habitantes, quienes
consideran que la migracion a las zonas urbanas es el unico camino
hacia una vida mejor. Para los paises que se quedaron atras en los
procesos de transformacion, el informe de 2017 de El estado mundial
de la agricultura y la alimentacion mantiene que todavia hay
esperanza. La publicacion muestra como aprovechando el potencial de
los sistemas alimentarios y conectando las ciudades y pueblos con
las zonas rurales circundantes, las transformaciones rurales
inclusivas son todavia posibles. Ademas, estas son necesarias para
alcanzar los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible de poner fin al
hambre y la pobreza.
La comunidad internacional se ha comprometido a poner fin al hambre
y a todas las formas de malnutricion en el mundo para el ano 2030.
?Pero podemos superar los desafios que obstaculizan el cumplimiento
de este objetivo? El informe de este ano explica como la creciente
incidencia de conflictos en el mundo afecta a la seguridad
alimentaria y la nutricion, e ilumina el camino hacia la
construccion de la paz y la seguridad alimentaria para todos.
Gracias a la colaboracion liderada por la FAO con el Fondo de las
Naciones Unidas para la Infancia (UNICEF), la Organizacion Mundial
de la Salud (OMS), el Fondo Internacional de Desarrollo Agricola
(FIDA) y el Programa Mundial de Alimentos (PMA), este informe
representa un paso importante en el seguimiento de la seguridad
alimentaria y la nutricion a nivel mundial.
The international community has committed to ending hunger and
malnutrition by 2030. But can we overcome the obstacles that stand
in the way of meeting this target? The State of Food Security and
Nutrition in the World 2017 offers some answers. This year's
edition focuses specifically on the dramatic effects that ongoing
conflicts are having on levels of food insecurity and malnutrition
across the world, and sets out a path to help build peace and food
security for all. Thanks to the collaboration of five key UN
agencies, with WHO and UNICEF joining IFAD and WFP as partners
under FAO's lead, this report is a first step towards a
comprehensive global analysis of the links between food security
and nutrition.

Depuis les annees 1990, les transformations rurales ont permis a
des millions de personnes de sortir de la pauvrete tout en restant
dans les zones rurales. Revitaliser les economies rurales contribue
a creer des emplois pour les personnes vivant en milieu rural, leur
offrant ainsi une alternative a la migration qui nait souvent de la
quete d'une vie meilleure. Pour les pays restes a la marge de ces
transformations, le rapport 2017 de La situation mondiale de
l'alimentation et de l'agriculture est porteur d'espoirs. Il
indique en effet que des transformations inclusives peuvent etre
realisees en exploitant le potentiel des systemes alimentaires et
en reconnaissant le role des villes moyennes et petites dans la
planification integree urbaine et rurale. De telles transformations
sont indispensables a la realisation des objectifs de developpement
durable relatifs a l'eradication de la pauvrete et de la faim.
