Book 2020 Global food policy report  Synopsis

Download or read book 2020 Global food policy report Synopsis written by International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2020-04-06 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Food systems are at a critical juncture—they are evolving quickly to meet growing and changing demand but are not serving everyone’s needs. Building more inclusive food systems can bring a wide range of economic and development benefits to all people, especially the poor and disadvantaged. IFPRI’s 2020 Global Food Policy Report examines the policies and investments and the growing range of tools and technologies that can promote inclusion. Chapters examine the imperative of inclusion, challenges faced by smallholders, youth, women, and conflict-affected people, and the opportunities offered by expanding agrifood value chains and national food system transformations. Critical questions addressed include: How can inclusive food systems help break the intergenerational cycle of poverty and malnutrition? \What can be done to strengthen the midstream of food value chains to improve rural access to jobs, markets, and services? Will Africa’s food systems generate sufficient jobs for the growing youth population? How can women be empowered within food system processes, from household decisions to policymaking? Can refugees and other conflict-affected people be integrated into food systems to help them rebuild their lives? How can national food system transformations contribute to greater dietary diversity, food safety, and food quality for all? Regional sections look at how inclusion can be improved around the world in 2020 and beyond. The report also presents interesting trends revealed by IFPRI’s food policy indicators and datasets.

Book 2021 Global food policy report  Transforming food systems after COVID 19  Synopsis

Download or read book 2021 Global food policy report Transforming food systems after COVID 19 Synopsis written by International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The coronavirus pandemic has upended local, national, and global food systems, and put the Sustainable Development Goals further out of reach. But lessons from the world’s response to the pandemic can help address future shocks and contribute to food system change. In the 2021 Global Food Policy Report, IFPRI researchers and other food policy experts explore the impacts of the pandemic and government policy responses, particularly for the poor and disadvantaged, and consider what this means for transforming our food systems to be healthy, resilient, efficient, sustainable, and inclusive. Chapters in the report look at balancing health and economic policies, promoting healthy diets and nutrition, strengthening social protection policies and inclusion, integrating natural resource protection into food sector policies, and enhancing the contribution of the private sector. Regional sections look at the diverse experiences around the world, and a special section on finance looks at innovative ways of funding food system transformation. Critical questions addressed include: - Who felt the greatest impact from falling incomes and food system disruptions caused by the pandemic? - How can countries find an effective balance among health, economic, and social policies in the face of crisis? - How did lockdowns affect diet quality and quantity in rural and urban areas? - Do national social protection systems such as cash transfers have the capacity to protect poor and vulnerable groups in a global crisis? - Can better integration of agricultural and ecosystem polices help prevent the next pandemic? - How did companies accelerate ongoing trends in digitalization and integration to keep food supply chains moving? - What different challenges did the pandemic spark in Asia, Africa, and Latin America and how did these regions respond?

This book was released on 2020-04-06 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Продовольственные системы всего мира подошли к переломно- му моменту — масштабы и темпы изменений, происходящих в глобальных, региональных, национальных и местных продоволь- ственных системах, имеют беспрецедентный размах. Продовольственные системы быстро эволюционируют, чтобы удовлетворить растущий и изменяющийся спрос, но они не обеспечивают потребности всех слоев населения. Когда настоящий отчет уже был передан на печать, вспышка коронавирусной инфекции привела к возникновению новой глобальной угрозы. Пока весь мир борется с пандемией, а экономика стран и источники средств существования населения дестабилизированы, в такой ситуации, по-видимому, больше всего пострадают бедные и уязвимые слои населения. Устранение последствий этого потрясения — от нарушения производственно-сбытовых цепочек и тор- говли до значительного роста безработицы и увеличения уровня бедности — настоятельно требует принятия в краткосрочной перспективе эффективных целевых мер социальной защиты наиболее уязвимых слоев населения. Для обеспечения долгосрочной устойчивости необходимо создавать инклюзивные продовольственные системы. В процессе модернизации продовольственных систем в целях их трансформации в климатические оптимизирован- ные, ориентированные на поддержание здоровья населения и устойчиво развивающиеся структуры необходимо также стремиться вовлечь в эти структуры мелких фермеров, молодежь, женщин, лиц, пострадавших в результате конфликтов, а также представителей других бедных и маргинальных слоев населения.

This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2020年在诸多方面都让我们始料未及。新冠肺炎(COVID-19)疫情为全球带来了一场大规模的公共卫生灾难,各国均陷入了疫情及其相关应对政策带来的不同程度的经济困境,面临服务严重中断和人员流动严重受限的局面。无论是富裕国家还是贫穷国家,均未能幸免。在中低收入国家,许多弱势群体直接面临食物安全、医疗和营养方面的威胁。丧失生计、营养不良、教育中断和资源枯竭造成的长期影响可能性非常巨大,特别是对许多国家来说,距离新冠肺炎疫情的结束还遥遥无期。此外,疫情还凸显并加剧了我们食物系统的薄弱环节和不平等状况。一年过去了,全球因新冠肺炎疫情而进一步偏离了到2030年实现可持续发展目标(SDG)的进程。显然,食物系统可以在推动我们走上正轨方面发挥核心作用。要想实现可持续发展目标,就必须对食物系统进行转型,帮助我们更好地为下一次冲击做好准备,同时造福世界贫困人口和弱势群体以及我们的地球。 福兮祸所伏,祸兮福所倚。2020年在颠覆我们的世界的同时,也为我们提供了一系列可指导和促进食物系统转型的经验和创新方法。尽管收入损失导致食物安全和营养水平严重下降,并且这种情况可能会持续存在,但事实证明,食物供应链的抗逆力超出预期。从新冠肺炎疫情开始,各国政府便采取了一系列措施确保食物流通,并扩大社会保障网络,为食物安全提供保障。同时,私营部门在食物供应链中引入创新方法,帮助克服封锁造成的供应链中断。此外,由于食物系统在2020年发挥的核心作用和适应能力有目共睹,这为食物系统转型增添了强劲动力。

Book Global food policy report 2023  Rethinking food crisis responses

This book was released on 2023-04-13 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This decade has been marked by multiple, often overlapping, crises. The COVID-19 pandemic, natural disasters, and the ongoing war in Ukraine have all threatened the fabric of our global food systems. But opportunities can be found amid crises, and the world’s food systems have demonstrated surprising resilience. With new evidence on what works, now is the time to rethink how we address food crises. Better prediction, preparation, and resilience building can make future crises less common and less devastating, and improved responses can contribute to greater food security, better nutrition, and sustainable livelihoods.

Book Africa regional overview of food security and nutrition 2020

Download or read book Africa regional overview of food security and nutrition 2020 written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2021-06-29 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Africa is not on track to meeting the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 2 targets to end hunger and ensure access by all people to safe, nutritious and sufficient food all year round and to end all forms of malnutrition. The number of hungry people on the continent has risen by 47.9 million since 2014 and now stands at 250.3 million, or nearly one-fifth of the population. The 2017, 2018 and 2019 editions of this report explain that this gradual deterioration of food security was due to conflict, weather extremes, and economic slowdowns and downturns, often overlapping. A continued worsening of food security is expected also for 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to hunger, across all countries in Africa millions of people suffer from widespread micronutrient deficiencies, and overweight and obesity are emerging as significant health concerns in many countries. This report shows that the food system in Africa does not provide food at a cost that makes nutritious food affordable to a majority of the population, and this is reflected in the high disease burden associated with maternal and child malnutrition, high body-mass, micronutrient deficiencies and dietary risk factors. The report also shows that current food consumption patterns impose high health and environmental costs, which are not reflected in food prices. The findings presented in this report highlight the importance of prioritizing the transformation of food systems to ensure access to affordable and healthy diets for all, produced in a sustainable manner.

Book 2020 Overview of food security in Economic Cooperation Organization Member States

Download or read book 2020 Overview of food security in Economic Cooperation Organization Member States written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2022-09-02 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides an overview of developments concerning food security and nutrition in Economic Cooperation Organization (ECO) Member States. The overview is based on the data available as of mid-2021. The report is organized in seven sections. Following the Introduction, Section 2 introduces the overall approach adopted in the overview and assessment of the food security and nutrition situation in ECO member states. Section 3 reviews the progress made towards the SDG 2 targets using the most recent data from FAO. The data used in the overview do not incorporate COVID-19-related data. Therefore, the potential impact on food security and nutrition of the spread of the virus is presented separately in Section 4, which discusses the potential global and regional effects of COVID-19. Section 5 elaborates on the key linkages between agriculture and nutrition and underlines a nutrition challenge that diversified and nutrition-sensitive agriculture has high potential to overcome. Section 6 discusses prospects for food security and nutrition in ECO member states until 2030. Finally, Section 7 concludes the report, pointing to the need to incorporate the key considerations into country-level food security and nutrition strategies.
