Abstract:

Abstract The genetic diversity of crops, represented by traditional local cultivars and wild relatives, has been disappearing rapidly during recent decades. Plant explorers have been active for centuries; however, concerted international activities were initiated only in the early 1960s by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations. Technical conferences organized by FAO in 1961, 1967, and 1973 created general awareness for the need to conserve crop genetic resources. Both the 1973 Technical Conference and the United Nations Environment Conference at Stockholm in 1972, led to recommendations for a global program. Subsequently, the International Board for Plant Genetic Resources (IBPGR) was established by the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) and started its work in 1974. The FAO agreed to provide headquarters for the IBPGR.

Abstract:

This study examines the impact of foreign direct investment in agricultural productivity on food security in sub-Saharan Africa covering the period 2010-2020. The data were obtained from World Bank World Development Indicators, United Nations Food and Agricultural Organization and United Nations Conference on Trade and Development. The technique used for data analysis is System Generalized Method of Moment. The results of Arrelano-Bond tests show no autocorrelation. The estimated GMM-SYS results show that foreign direct investment in agriculture is positive and statistically significant in influencing food security variables including food consumption score (with the coefficient of 0.042) and dietary energy consumption (with the coefficient of 0.317). The control variables like crop production, food exports, age dependency and rural population are significant determinants of food consumption score. Also, GDP per capita, crop production, age dependency and rural population are significant factors influencing dietary energy consumption in Sub-Saharan Africa. Based on the findings of the study, there is need for regional governments to ensure tenure reforms by formalization of customary rights to enhance tenure security for a more equitable access to land. It is also essential that proper monitoring and impact assessment systems are developed to ensure transparency of the processes associated with agricultural investments. Furthermore, countries with currently high foreign direct investment transaction costs or that have a generally less conducive investment environment can improve agriculture by eliminating these obstacles.

Abstract:

The aim of the paper is to present a review of transnational regulations (global and European) in the field of environmental protection and the circular economy. The paper discusses the regulations proposed in publications and reports of such global organizations and UN Agencies as the United Nations Environmental Program (UNEP), the United Nations Conference for Trade and Development (UNCTAD), the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), as well as the World Trade Organization (WTO), and the European Commission as the Executive Body of the European Union. With regard to the WTO, these regulations concern the effects of liberalizing trade in environmental goods and services and environmentally sound technologies. Sustainable development means, above all, protecting the natural environment and reducing excessive dependence on depleting natural resources, including primary raw materials, in the economic sector. This implies the need to implement a new resource‑efficient development model, based on the principles of the circular economy (CE), which has been proposed for several years by transnational organizations. In the CE model, the use of natural resources is minimized, and when a product reaches the end of its useful life, it is reused to create additional new value. This can bring significant economic benefits, contributing to new production methods and new innovative products, growth, and job creation. The topics mentioned above are the main subject of consideration in the presented paper.

Abstract:

Women as farmers, livestock keepers, fishers and forest dwellers play vital – often overlooked – roles in natural resources use and management in the Mediterranean region. Women’s exclusion from decision making bodies and unequal access to productive resources represent a missed opportunity in terms of sustainable management of available resources and economic development. Recent studies indicate that if men and women equally participate in the labour market, in the southern Mediterranean region the GDP could rise by 47% over the next decade, meaning an annual benefit from an economic impact of €490 billion (Woetzel et al., 2015). The Director General of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), José Graziano da Silva, at the fourth Regional conference on women’s empowerment in the Euro-Mediterranean region stressed that rural women’s contributions and leadership is crucial to feed the Mediterranean region’s growing population and achieve sustainable food production: «By enabling rural women to reach their full potential, we can make food systems more inclusive, efficient and effective» (FAO 2018). In the region women sustain such food systems by gathering wild plants for food, medicinal use, fuelwood and other purposes, acting as herbalists, tending home gardens, selecting, managing and storing seeds, managing crops, trees and small livestock, domesticating plants, participating in small-scale fisheries and aquaculture, and storing, preserving and processing foods after harvesting. They have a unique knowledge about local biodiversity, which is often passed from generation to generation (FAO, 2019; World Bank, FAO and IFAD, 2009). Nevertheless, still too often women have less access than men to land and livestock, production inputs and services such as education, extension and credit, and are not represented in decision-making processes related to food and agriculture (Lehel 2018; World Bank, FAO and IFAD, 2009).

Abstract:

Global warming and climate change are the most potent cause of natural disasters like droughts, high temperature, extreme cold in some places, rising ocean level. One of the most important cause of these disasters are poor cropping patterns and extensive use of agrochemicals. These chemical fertilizers increase the level of salts in the soil and also make the soil acidic. In the era of modern agriculture the use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers to increase the production of food across the globe deteriorated the original productivity of soil. These chemical fertilizers are like instant food for plant because they instantly provide nutrition to the plants and help the plant to grow rapidly and at a faster pace. Chemical fertilizer are nutrients which are readily soluble and instantly available to plants, therefore usually the effect is direct and fast. Due to its high nutrient content, only relatively small amount are required for crop development and growth. Over application can result in harmful effects such as leaching, water resource pollution, microorganism and friendly insect’s destruction. The substitute to chemically made fertilizers are naturally occurring microorganisms that can be grown and multiply in laboratories to produce biofertilizers, which can serve as an efficient, effective and economical way for the better production of crops when World Health Organization has predicted that the population will be increased to 9.6 billion in the next 30 years and the food production should be increased by 50 percent. In recent years the biofertilizer emerged as a potential component to fix the nitrogen present in air and solubilize the phosphorous and promote plant growth. And also, these biofertilizers have the ability to make the environment clean by bioremediation. These plant growths promoting microorganisms (PGPMs) like bacteria, algae and fungus promote the sustainable development approach provided by United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP 21) which was held in Paris in 2015. The study reviews these efficient, eco-friendly, economical and sustainable nutrients which have the potential for the better production of crops, and it is based on several relevant literatures and reviews and research work carried out by several prominent researchers in this field.

Abstract:

IntroductionThe International Food Safety Authorities Network (INFOSAN) is a global network of national food safety authorities from 188 countries, managed jointly by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO), which facilitates the rapid exchange of information during food safety related events. The proposed research will interrogate INFOSAN in order to describe and explore the experiences of members and better understand the role of the network in mitigating the burden of foodborne illness around the world.MethodsExamined through a community of practice lens, a three-phase research design will combine quantitative and qualitative methods (including website analytics in phase 1, online survey administration in phase 2 and semistructured interviews in phase 3) to elicit a broad and deep understanding of the network operation and member experiences.AnalysisIn phases 1 and 2, quantitative data collected from the INFOSAN Community website and the online questionnaires will be analysed using descriptive summary statistics. In phase 3, interpretative phenomenological analysis will be used to engage in a dialogue with study participants to explore and describe their lived experiences regarding participation in activities related to INFOSAN. An important aspect of the overall analysis will be triangulation of the information collected from each phase, including quantitative indicators and qualitative value stories, in order to provide a robust understanding of member experience.Ethics and disseminationThis study has undergone ethical review and has received approval from Lancaster University’s Faculty of Health and Medicine Research Ethics Committee, as well as the ethics review committee of the WHO. Findings from the study will be disseminated as a PhD thesis submitted to Lancaster University. In addition, results of the research shall be submitted for publication to relevant academic or professional conferences and journals or other media, including books or websites.

Abstract:

    Wealthy nations must step up support for Africa and vulnerable countries in addressing past, present and future impacts of climate change     The 2022 report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) paints a dark picture of the future of life on earth, characterised by ecosystem collapse, species extinction, and climate hazards such as heatwaves and floods.1 These are all linked to physical and mental health problems, with direct and indirect consequences of increased morbidity and mortality. To avoid these catastrophic health effects across all regions of the globe, there is broad agreement— as 231 health journals argued together in 2021—that the rise in global temperature must be limited to less than 1.5oC compared with pre-industrial levels.     While the Paris Agreement of 2015 outlines a global action framework that incorporates providing climate finance to developing countries, this support has yet to materialise.2 COP27 is the fifth Conference of the Parties (COP) to be organised in Africa since its inception in 1995. Ahead of this meeting, we—as health journal editors from across the continent—call for urgent action to ensure it is the COP that finally delivers climate justice for Africa and vulnerable countries. This is essential not just for the health of those countries, but for the health of the whole world.     Africa has suffered disproportionately although it has done little to cause the crisisThe climate crisis has had an impact on the environmental and social determinants of health across Africa, leading to devastating health effects.3 Impacts on health can result directly from environmental shocks and indirectly through socially mediated effects.4 Climate change-related risks in Africa include flooding, drought, heatwaves, reduced food production, and reduced labour productivity.5     Droughts in sub-Saharan Africa have tripled between 1970-79 and 2010-2019.6 In 2018, devastating cyclones impacted 2.2 million people in Malawi, Mozambique and Zimbabwe.6 In west and central Africa, severe flooding resulted in mortality and forced migration from loss of shelter, cultivated land, and livestock.7 Changes in vector ecology brought about by floods and damage to environmental hygiene has led to increases in diseases across sub-Saharan Africa, with rises in malaria, dengue fever, Lassa fever, Rift Valley fever, Lyme disease, Ebola virus, West Nile virus and other infections.8,9 Rising sea levels reduce water quality, leading to water-borne diseases, including diarrhoeal diseases, a leading cause of mortality in Africa.8 Extreme weather damages water and food supply, increasing food insecurity and malnutrition, which causes 1.7 million deaths annually in Africa.10 According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, malnutrition has increased by almost 50% since 2012, owing to the central role agriculture plays in African economies.11 Environmental shocks and their knock-on effects also cause severe harm to mental health.12 In all, it is estimated that the climate crisis has destroyed a fifth of the gross domestic product (GDP) of the countries most vulnerable to climate shocks.13     The damage to Africa should be of supreme concern to all nations. This is partly for moral reasons. It is highly unjust that the most impacted nations have contributed the least to global cumulative emissions, which are driving the climate crisis and its increasingly severe effects. North America and Europe have contributed 62% of carbon dioxide emissions since the Industrial Revolution, whereas Africa has contributed only 3%.14         The fight against the climate crisis needs all hands on deck Yet it is not just for moral reasons that all nations should be concerned for Africa. The acute and chronic impacts of the climate crisis create problems like poverty, infectious disease, forced migration, and conflict that spread through globalised systems.6,15 These knock-on impacts affect all nations. COVID-19 served as a wake-up call to these global dynamics and it is no coincidence that health professionals have been active in identifying and responding to the consequences of growing systemic risks to health. But the lessons of the COVID-19 pandemic should not be limited to pandemic risk.16,17 Instead, it is imperative that the suffering of frontline nations, including those in Africa, be the core consideration at COP27: in an interconnected world, leaving countries to the mercy of environmental shocks creates instability that has severe consequences for all nations.     The primary focus of climate summits remains to rapidly reduce emissions so that global temperature rises are kept to below 1.5 °C. This will limit the harm. But, for Africa and other vulnerable regions, this harm is already severe. Achieving the promised target of providing $100bn of climate finance a year is now globally critical if we are to forestall the systemic risks of leaving societies in crisis. This can be done by ensuring these resources focus on increasing resilience to the existing and inevitable future impacts of the climate crisis, as well as on supporting vulnerable nations to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions: a parity of esteem between adaptation and mitigation. These resources should come through grants not loans, and be urgently scaled up before the current review period of 2025. They must put health system resilience at the forefront, as the compounding crises caused by the climate crisis often manifest in acute health problems. Financing adaptation will be more cost-effective than relying on disaster relief.     Some progress has been made on adaptation in Africa and around the world, including early warning systems and infrastructure to defend against extremes. But frontline nations are not compensated for impacts from a crisis they did not cause. This is not only unfair, but also drives the spiral of global destabilisation, as nations pour money into responding to disasters, but can no longer afford to pay for greater resilience or to reduce the root problem through emissions reductions. A financing facility for loss and damage must now be introduced, providing additional resources beyond those given for mitigation and adaptation. This must go beyond the failures of COP26 where the suggestion of such a facility was downgraded to “a dialogue”.18     The climate crisis is a product of global inaction, and comes at great cost not only to disproportionately impacted African countries, but to the whole world. Africa is united with other frontline regions in urging wealthy nations to finally step up, if for no other reason than that the crises in Africa will sooner rather than later spread and engulf all corners of the globe, by which time it may be too late to effectively respond. If so far they have failed to be persuaded by moral arguments, then hopefully their self-interest will now prevail.

Abstract:

A Segurança sempre foi um tema de grande interesse para as nações, para os grandes líderes de governos e para os acadêmicos que foram testemunhas das mudanças no sistema internacional ao longo do tempo. Essas mudanças repercutiram em transformações no conceito de segurança que acompanharam o contexto internacional, criando assim um debate teórico em torno ao conceito. Depois da Guerra Fria, o realismo entra em crise, demandando uma mudança no conceito que, hoje, tem a ver com o indivíduo e as ameaças existentes que se tornam problemas internacionais toda vez que transcendem fronteiras. A Segurança Humana surge como resposta do PNUD à nova agenda internacional, e inclui ameaças não estatais à segurança internacional. Dentro destas ameaças estão presentes os problemas ambientais, as epidemias, o desemprego, a fome, o narcotráfico, o terrorismo, a migração, os conflitos étnicos, as violações dos direitos humanos, dentre outros. São sete as dimensões que procuram classificar todas as ameaças ao individuo. Uma das dimensões da Segurança Humana é a Segurança Alimentar, que busca garantir o acesso, disponibilidade e uso dos alimentos com uma estabilidade ao longo do tempo. Com base nisto, este trabalho abordará as condições e os debates teóricos durante a Guerra Fria, que permitiram o desenvolvimento do conceito de Segurança Humana e, complementarmente, da Segurança Alimentar. Além disso, nesta dissertação, se utiliza a análise de um caso prático de um país em particular, a Bolívia, para medir qualitativamente e quantitativamente os impactos e a eficiência das politicas de Segurança Alimentar aplicadas na última década.<br>Security has always been a topic of great interest to the nations, to the great leaders of governments and academics who witnessed the changes in the international system over time. These changes impacted on transformation in the concept of security that accompanied the international context, creating a theoretical debate around the concept. After the Cold War, realism was in crisis, demanding a change in the concept that today is related to the individual and the threats that become international problems, and that transcend borders. Human Security is a response from UNDP to the new international agenda, including non-state threats to international security. Within these threats are present environmental issues, epidemics, unemployment, hunger, drug trafficking, terrorism, migration, ethnic conflicts, human rights violations, among others. There are seven dimensions in which it attempts to classify every threat to the individual. One dimension of Human Security is the Food Security, which seeks to ensure access, availability and use of a stable food in time. Based on this, this paper will focus on the conditions and the theoretical debates during the Cold War, which led to the development of the concept of Human Security and additionally Food Security. Moreover, in this dissertation, we use the analysis of a case study of a specific country, Bolivia, to qualitatively and quantitatively measure the impact and efficiency of Food Security policies implemented in the last decade.

Abstract:

Following the Second World War, the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO) teamed up to construct an international Codex Alimentarius (or “food code”) in 1962. Inspired by the work of its European predecessor, the Codex Europaeus, these two UN agencies assembled teams of health professionals, government civil servants, medical and scientific experts to draft food standards. Once ratified, the standards were distributed to governments for voluntary adoption and implementation. By the mid-1990s, the World Trade Organization (WTO) identified the Codex as a key reference point for scientific food standards. The role of science within this highly political and economic organization poses interesting questions about the process of knowledge production and the scientific expertise underpinning the food standards. Standards were constructed and contested according to the Codex twin goals of: (1) protecting public health, and (2) facilitating trade. One recent criticism of Codex is that these two aims are opposed, or that one is given primacy over the other, which results in protectionism. Bearing these themes in mind, in this dissertation I examine the relationship between the scientific and the ‘social’ elements embodied by the Codex food standards since its inception after the Second World War. I argue that these attempts to reach scientific standards represent an example of coproduction– one in which the natural and social orders are produced alongside each other. What follows from this central claim is an attempt to characterize the pre-WTO years of the Codex through a case study approach. The narrative begins with a description of the predecessor regional group the Codex europaeus, and then proceeds to key areas affecting human health: 1) food additives, 2) food hygiene, and 3) pesticides residues.

Abstract:

AbstractCarbon-neutral sustainable approaches are highly demanding in the coal energy sector. Coal mine effluent disposal is a severe challenge with crucial concern issues of salinity hazard and heavy metal contamination due to long-duration water and coal interaction. The medium to the high salinity of coal mine effluent leads towards irrigation unsuitability due to the negative impact upon infiltration and permeability of nutrients from the soil to plant. Focusing on the international irrigation water quality standards given by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations, most coal mine effluents are considered negatively impacting crops, soil fertility, groundwater, and aquatic life. Therefore, the current study investigates the direct cultivation suitability of Chlorella pyrenoidosa to simultaneously treat coal mine effluent for salinity removal and biomass production. Initially, C. pyrenoidosa culture adaptation in varying concentrations of coal mine effluents (25%–100%) in coal mine effluent, which are collected from two different points of coal mine named as coal mine effluent 1 (CME1) and coal mine effluent 2 (CME2). Evaluating C. pyrenoidosa growth kinetics, it was observed that the doubling time extended from 2.25 days (100% BG-11 as a medium; control) to 4.33 days (100% CME as a medium). Interestingly, the highest value for biomass production was 1.78 ± 0.12 g/ L with 25% CME 1 supplemented with essential growth nutrients; this value lies near 100% BG11 supplemented growth, 1.81 ± 0.05 g/L. In the current study, taking salinity removal as a prime concern, 100% utilization of CME-2 in place of BG-11 medium was very significant for salinity reduction from 4.80 ± 0.50 mS/cm (initial) to 0.98 ± 0.02 mS/cm (final) during 14 days batch growth. In continuation of that, the significant finding was salinity reduction of both samples (50% and 75% sample) to the level of 0.7 mS/ cm, which lies under the FAO guidelines for irrigation. Present findings also revealed an alternative to conventional processes, i.e., thermal and membrane desalination. Microalgae-assisted desalination is a novel, energy-efficient, eco-sustainable, cost-effective, and long-term operational approach. It has good potential to treat medium to sub-optimal salinity of coal mine effluent coupled with high-value biomass production.

Abstract:

The International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources (ITPGRFA) was adopted in 2001 during the Thirty-first Session of the Conference of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. It aims to achieve the conservation and sustainable use of plant genetic resources for food and agriculture and the fair and equitable sharing of the benefits derived from their use to achieve sustainable agriculture. The treaty has implemented a Multilateral System (MLS) of access and benefit sharing, for a list of 64 of some of the most important food and forage crops essential for food security. Republic of Moldova has ratified the ITPGRFA in 2001, based on Law nr. 94 of 14-05-2015 on the accession of the Republic of Moldova to the ITPGRFA. In order to put in evidence the weaknesses and strengths of ITPGRFA imple-mentation at national level, the country report on compliance – ITPGRFA was developed.

Abstract:

This article examines the impact of inflation in agricultural prices on food security in the countries surrounding the Black Sea, including Bulgaria, Georgia, Romania, the Russian Federation, Turkey, and Ukraine. Concerns about inflation in agricultural prices and food security have increased globally in recent years, especially due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine conflict, which has resulted in problems with agricultural production and logistical constraints, leading to increased food prices worldwide. This study analyzes the impact of agricultural price inflation on food security in the aforementioned countries. The analysis uses the "producer price index" of agricultural products, such as corn, beans, sugar beets, sunflower seeds, and wheat, published by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) to measure inflation, and "per capita food supply variability" to assess food security. The study examines the complex effects of agricultural product inflation on food security with the help of panel vector error correction model.

Abstract:

The United Nations Food and Agroindustry Organization (FAO) declared in 2018 the Malaga raisin pro-duction system as an Important World Agricultural Heritage System (SIPAM). There are 62 SIPAM world-wide, five of them in Spain and Malaga is the only one in the entire Andalusian autonomous community. The value of this declaration resides in the recognition of a cultural heritage capable of combining agri-cultural biodiversity with resilient ecosystems and a valuable cultural landscape where its architecture remains linked to artisan production. The SIPAM of Malaga has an area of 280 km², it ranges from the cultivation of the Moscatel grape to its transformation into raisins through drying in the sun, favoring the conservation of the landscape, avoiding erosion or desertification processes and constituting an element of linkage of the population with its territory.Since the 18th century, the production coexisted with other forms of elaboration that complemented it. Said structures associated with this industry were located on agricultural properties following various construc-tion models, ranging from rudimentary forms of sunlight such as the almijares in the paved ring of the press, to buildings of higher production. After the phylloxera crisis and the process of constant production decline, we would end up with the destruction of a large part of Malaga's payments. The wineries, paseros and warehouses were transformed into ruins or were reconverted to other lower-yield agricultural activi-ties.Of that material wealth we recognize scattered examples in the current rural landscape of the mountains of Malaga, whose architectural qualities deserve to be rescued and valued as an example of the unique and representative traditional architecture of a declared cultural landscape. These results are directly linked to the work strategies and objectives that we follow in the Transnational research project SIN-PAR (Inno-vation System for the Heritage of Rural Andalusia)

Abstract:

The article discusses methodological features of creating national versions of the AGROVOC thesaurus. Research institutes, universities, libraries, and other organizations take part in editing the national versions of the thesaurus. The selection of national equivalents to the English terms of the thesaurus is carried out using an interdisciplinary approach based on the cooperation of specialists in various fields of knowledge. In order to provide a consistent, unified approach to the selection of concepts and terms, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations has created general guidelines for the AGROVOC editors. Comparative analysis of the guidelines published in 2008, 2015, 2020 and 2022 showed how the methodology for creating AGROVOC language versions has changed over the past 15 years.

Abstract:

The paper analyzes International and European documents related to Sustainable Agriculture. Among others: The FAO International Treaty on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture; The proceedings of the Rio +20 Conference (20-22June 2012); The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development with 17 SDGs is to be achieved by 2030 by the United Nations General Assembly. In it, Goal 2, ending hunger, achieving food security, improving nutrition, and promoting sustainable agriculture, deserves attention; The Marrakech Conference (2016) of the United Nations on Climate Change (COP22); The "New Strategic Agenda for the five years 2019 -2024. The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) 2023-2027. Also mentions the National Strategy for Sustainable Development and the Reports of the Italian Alliance for Sustainable Development. Examples of sustainable agriculture are highlighted in the livestock agribusiness sector in Campania, Italy, in which several companies are showing a growing willingness toward productive modernization aimed at achieving economic, social, and environmental development with a focus on Sustainable Development. In this area, the case of a buffalo farm that ensures sustainable food production systems and applies resilient agricultural practices that increase productivity and strengthen resilience to climate change is presented. Several technological innovations are taken over on the same farm, such as a buffalo milking plant, Vms (Voluntary milking systems) that enables animal welfare, is a plant for producing green energy from processing waste.

Abstract:

Aquaculture is probably the fastest growing food-producing sector in the world producing nearly 50 percent of the fish that is used for food, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). With the growing of the Aquaculture sector, problems of global knowledge access, seamless data exchanges and lack of data reuse between aquaculture companies and its related stakeholders become more evident. From an IT perspective, aquaculture is characterized by high volumes of heterogeneous data, and lack of interoperability intra and inter-organizations. Each organization uses different data representations, using its native languages and legacy classification systems to manage and organize information, leading to a problem of integrating information from different sources due to lack of semantic interoperability that exists among knowledge organization tools used in different information systems. The lack of semantic interoperability that exists can be minimized, if innovative semantic techniques for representing, indexing and searching sources of non-structured information are applied. To address these issues, authors are developing a platform specifically designed for the aquaculture sector, which will allow even small companies to explore their data and extract knowledge, to improve in terms of use of feed, environmental impact, growth of the fish, cost, etc.

Abstract:

Diseases that are transmitted from animals to humans through contact or ingestion of contaminated water and food are defined as zoonosis, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). In this sense, 60% of the agents that are pathogenic to humans are zoonotic, such data can be explained by the increase of animals in the social environment and in the products of animal origin produced by man, such as microorganisms associated with wildlife entering intensive agricultural systems based on livestock, increase in the frequency and speed of travel, changes in the infecting agents themselves or intrinsic characteristics of the hosts, (SCHLUNDT, 2004).Vaccination is the most effective and low-cost method for the control of infectious diseases in public health and veterinary health. Immunization technology follows a rapid advance through the use of modern molecular techniques and the greater understanding of immunological mechanisms and ways to optimize immune responses to achieve maximum protection. As an example, veterinary immunization has enabled the eradication of rinderpest, as declared in 2011, jointly by the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) (WHO, 2024).

Abstract:

Urban agriculture has a long history of evolving functions of the practice, but its place in global and national legal aspects is often still unclear. Both the United Nations and the European Union have defined goals and directions of sustainable development, identifying and including the use of resources, the principles of the circular economy, the equal development of regions and other aspects. Urban agriculture has a potential in the most of them. However, the role and legal framework of urban agriculture is largely based on national or municipal initiatives. In Latvia urban agriculture does not have a legally defined status, it is not defined in strategic development plans, nor in the laws and regulations of the Cabinet of Ministers. Therefore, the aim of this study is to analyse the legal aspects of urban agriculture in order to determine its potential institutional framework in Latvia. To achieve the goal, tasks of the research are defined: 1) to identify the main legal aspects affecting urban agriculture in Latvia, 2) to determine the potential institutional framework for urban agriculture in Latvia. The study was conducted using systematic review analysis of laws, development strategies and regulations of the Republic of Latvia. As a result of the research, the main groups of legal aspects, influencing urban agriculture, were identified (agriculture and commerce, food chain, local government and environmental development and protection, waste management) and a possible institutional framework was developed.

Abstract:

In 2015, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO-UN) declared soil a finite natural resource in the face of anthropogenic use, occupation, and exploitation. The importance of soil for maintaining life and other natural resources must be adequately addressed in the curricula for natural sciences and geography teaching. The National Common Curricular Base � BNCC, defined for elementary education in Brazil, and the Paulista Curriculum, specific for the state of Sao Paulo, imply that full training related to sustainability requires the student to have competencies intrinsic to the socio-environmental values development and decision. Resorting to field and laboratory activities on the soil in the classroom, it was possible to approach geoethics when discussing the valorisation of georesources. The educational actions involving the inseparability between human activity and the impacts on abiotic cycles were simultaneously addressed in line with the curricular recommendations (BNCC and Paulista Curriculum). Thus, using the natural resource soil, students participated in activities involving environmental awareness, water consumption/preservation, air pollution, waste reduction, and sustainable consumption, among others. This work addressed the teaching of the soil as an irreplaceable resource for protecting life and environmental balance in elementary school, resorting to geoethics as an approach that allowed the development of non-cognitive competencies related to the environment, such as reflection, awareness, and argumentation. The meaningful impact on students made it worth highlighting this geoethics approach to increase knowledge and develop competencies.
