World Water Day 2014 - Understanding the interdependency of water and energy
Agriculture is a thirsty business, with irrigation alone accounting for about 70 per cent of freshwater withdrawals.
Meeting demand from a world population expected to top 9 billion people by 2050 will require a 10 per cent increase in water for agricultural use.
Enormous efforts will be needed to reduce water demand and improve water use efficiency.

Land and Natural Resources Tenure Security Learning Initiative for East and Southern Africa
This report provides an overview of the achievements and learning from the Phase 1 of the Tenure Security Learning Initiative - East & Southern Africa (TSLI-ESA) Project.
It also looks ahead to strategies for scaling up initiatives, and to the second phase of the TSLI-ESA project.
Mapping land and natural resource rights, use and management
Participatory mapping uses a range of tools including data collection tools, such as mental mapping, ground mapping, participatory sketch mapping, transect mapping and participatory 3-dimensional modelling.
Recently participatory mapping initiatives have begun to use more technically advanced geographic information technologies, including Global Positioning Systems (GPS), aerial photos and use of remote-sensing images, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and other digital computer-based technologies.
IFAD supported projects and programmes are increasingly making use of these technologies for mapping land and natural resource rights, use and management.
Dar a la población rural pobre de Guatemala la oportunidad de salir de la pobreza
El Fondo Internacional de Desarrollo Agrícola (FIDA) apoya las iniciativas de reducción de la pobreza rural y desarrollo agrícola en Guatemala desde 1986. El FIDA, durante su primer decenio en el país, orientó su labor a apoyar al Gobierno en la consolidación del proceso de paz y la reconstrucción del tejido social del país en las zonas que se vieron afectadas por el conflicto armado, que se prolongó durante 36 años.
También se concentró en la construcción de una plataforma económica e institucional para el desarrollo de las comunidades rurales e indígenas marginadas.
