Focal point
Location
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations leads international efforts to defeat hunger. Serving both developed and developing countries, FAO acts as a neutral forum where all nations meet as equals to negotiate agreements and debate policy. FAO is also a source of knowledge and information. We help developing countries and countries in transition modernize and improve agriculture, forestry and fisheries practices and ensure good nutrition for all. Since our founding in 1945, we have focused special attention on developing rural areas, home to 70 percent of the world's poor and hungry people.

Displaying 1921 - 1925 of 5074林权改革 — 问题、原则和过程
有保障的权属是可持续森林管理的重要前提条件。更加多样化的权属体系可为改善森林管理、当地生计奠定基础,在森林管理能力较弱的国家尤其如此。过去10年间,很多国家开始改革森林和林地的权属安排,将获取和管理森林资源的权力在不同程度上从中央下放到家庭、私营公司和社区等主体。本书为政策制定者以及森林权属改革的参与者提供了切实可行的指导。书中引用了大量资料,包括粮农组织在非洲、东南亚、拉丁美洲和中亚开展的森林权属评估,得出一些经验教训,并阐明原因。本书列出了10条权属改革指导原则,提出因地制宜通过适应性的方式实现森林权属多样化。本书还强调,成功的权属改革与相关规范框架和治理安排改革相关联,因此必须将其放在更广阔的国家发展议程中来看待。

What do we really know about the number and distribution of farms and family farms worldwide?
The agricultural economics literature provides various estimates of the number of farms and small farms in the world. This paper is an effort to provide a more complete and up to date as well as carefully documented estimate of the total number of farms in the world, as well as by region and level of income. It uses data from numerous rounds of the World Census of Agriculture, the only dataset available which allows the user to gain a complete picture of the total number of farms globally and at the country level.
Insigne des sols
Les Insignes des Nations Unies ont pour but l’éducation et la sensibilisation des jeunes en les motivant à améliorer leur comportement, à s’engager comme acteurs principaux d’un changement au niveau local. Les insignes sont un outil pédagogique adapté au cours d’école et aux groupes de jeunes, et sont approuvés par l’AMGE et l’OMMS. Cet auvrage est destiné aux enseignants, aux intervenants en mission locale, et plus particulièrement aux chefs-scouts et cheftaines-guides.
When the law is not enough
The Mozambique land law provides statutory recognition of customary land rights and is considered one of the most progressive legislations in Africa. However, the law continues to face implementation challenges, including the realization of equal rights for women and institutional reform. Simply having a progressive law ‘is not enough’ to bring about transformative change in a country.
