Launch of the 2023 Report "The Impact of Disasters on Agriculture and Food Security"

The 2023 edition of the report presents groundbreaking evidence on the global impact of disasters on agriculture and food security over the last three decades. It showcases opportunities for proactively addressing risks in agriculture and demonstrates ways to mainstream disaster risk into agricultural practices and policies.

Developing better information and obtaining better data on the impact of disasters across all subsectors of agriculture will allow communities to determine the best possible strategies for mitigating or reducing the impacts of future disaster events. Efforts to prevent and reduce disaster risks, manage impacts, and develop response measures must become widespread to achieve the goals of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sendai Framework.
