Resumen
Descripción
Highlighting the priorities and challenges currently facing the humanitarian community, the publication brings the attention of resource partners to FAO’s funding requirements (USD 728 million) under the global United Nations and partners’ 2015 Humanitarian Appeal (http://www.unocha.org/2015appeal/). The publication focuses on FAO’s comparative advantage in responding to agricultural threats and emergencies. The latest food security situation and resulting funding needs are presented for 13 coun tries and five regions covered by the global Appeal. Emphasis is on emergency response as a component of wider resilience building efforts. A short section on “leveraging FAO’s expertise" demonstrates the value of integrating the Organization’s emergency and development expertise. The document also provides a snapshot of some FAO achievements in emergency response in 2014 and highlights key funding mechanisms.
