This article departs from the assumption that the challenge of putting the Farm to Fork Strategy (F2F) into action stems from the broader challenge of attaining cross-sectoral policy integration. Policy integration has been part of the EU's policy approach for a long time and has predominantly been achieved in the form of environmental policy integration (EPI). However, the scope of the F2F extends beyond EPI, as it includes the integration of climate-related concerns into sectoral policies, for instance.
This case study chronicles Uganda’s experiences developing a gender-responsive National Adaptation Plan for the Agricultural Sector (NAP-Ag) and related capacity development for gender-responsive planning, budgeting and policy formulation.
L’économie tunisienne a subi de plein fouet les effets de la crise sanitaire Covid-19 et des mesures indispensables pour la juguler prises par les pouvoirs publics comme la fermeture des frontières et le confinement de la population. L’agriculture a dû faire face aux mêmes difficultés ; toutefois, la courte durée du confinement total et la décision des autorités d’exclure les activités agricoles de certaines restrictions ont réduit les effets de la crise sanitaire sur la disponibilité des produits alimentaires.
Méthodologie: suivant une démarche préventive, notre travail s’intéresse aux conséquences nutritionnelles liées à la santé et représentant un facteur de changement climatique influant sur l’efficience des politiques préventives mises en œuvre.
La conférence du programme mondial de SEWOH (Initiative spéciale "Un seul monde sans faim") Programme mondial "Sécurité alimentaire et nutritionnelle, renforcement de la résilience" au Bénin a été consacrée à la promotion des changes et de la coopération Sud-Sud.
In this webinar, the discussion focuses on the need to promote appropriate agricultural technologies and innovations that will help agribusinesses in Africa to be resilient in the wake of the COVID 19 pandemic.
The COVID-19 pandemic is expected to have serious health and economic ramifications in Africa. This paper presents a technical position on demand and supply shocks associated with the COVID19 pandemic within the African context. We document the disruptions associated with containment measures implemented by various governments and their implications on labour mobility, import and export of food commodities, production and productivity of major staples and prices of food items.
Face à la crise mondiale causée par la pandémie de covid-19, les pays prennent des mesures.Les rayons des supermarchés restent approvisionnés pour le moment. Mais une crise pandémique prolongée pourrait rapidement mettre à mal les chaînes d’approvisionnement alimentaire, qui sont des réseaux complexes d’interactions entre exploitants, intrants agricoles, usines de transformation, services d’expédition, détaillants et bien d’autres.
The COVID-19 pandemic is a major economic shock, throwing into question the resilience of the agrifood sector at this stage, particularly in developing countries where self-employed, wage and informal workers are threatened by food supply chain disruptions, limitations on movement and trade restrictions. Even before the crisis, small and medium agribusinesses were often considered to be credit-constrained and extremely vulnerable to shocks.
A worthy agricultural innovation system (AIS) is one that that helps an agricultural sector be productive, sustainable and resilient and facilitates reduction in poverty and malnutrition. How can an AIS be made resilient in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic is a question pondered in this note. The key issue will be continued strong investment in knowledge and technology creation that underpins growth in productivity and the active pursuit of mechanisms that make agriculture more resilient to the emerging environments challenges around the world.
