Launch of “The state of the world’s land and water resources for food and agriculture: Systems at breaking point (SOLAW 2021)”

The FAO Land and Water Division is pleased to invite you to the launch of “The state of the world’s land and water resources for food and agriculture: Systems at breaking point (SOLAW 2021)”, which will take place during the Land and Water Days from 8 to 9 December 2021.

During these two days, we will engage in lively presentations and discussions on key cross-cutting trends and global and regional perspectives on our land, soil and water resources which form the core of the global food system.

We will present the main findings and recommendations of the SOLAW 2021 Report which comes at a time when human pressures on the systems of land, soils and freshwater are intensifying, just when they are being pushed to their productive limits. The SOLAW 2021 report stresses that a sense of urgency into making the necessary transformations in our land, soil and water resources is essential.
