    Comunidades rurales se unen para promover la adaptación climática en la cuenca del río Tempisque
    Guanacaste, 23 jul (elmundo.cr) – Comunidades, gobiernos locales, territoriales, sector privado y organizaciones trabajan en la construcción de nuevas estrategias para fortalecer la adaptación climática en la cuenca del río Tempisque, en los cantones de Liberia, Nicoya, Santa Cruz, Bagaces y Carrillo, una de las zonas más vulnerables del Corredor Seco Centroamericano. Esta iniciativa se […]

  2. El hambre en América Latina continúa disminuyendo: ahora hay que conseguir que las dietas saludables sean asequibles

    El hambre en América Latina continúa disminuyendo: ahora hay que conseguir que las dietas saludables sean asequibles
    El hambre está disminuyendo en la mayor parte de América Latina y el Caribe. El próximo reto de la región es aún más difícil: garantizar que toda la población pueda permitirse una dieta saludable, y no solo las calorías suficientes para sobrevivir. La tasa regional de hambre descendió por quinto año consecutivo en 2025, hasta […]

  3. Today released:

    The number of people suffering chronic #hunger increased from 595 million in 2015 to 645 million in 2025. It is projected to be reduced to 511 million in 2030.

    The according percentages of the world population decreased from 8.0% in 2015 to 7.8% in 2025. Related #UN #SDG2 to #EndHunger by 2030 is not on track.

  8. UN-Report: Kleine Fortschritte, doch der Hunger bleibt

    Die Zahl der Hungernden sinkt, doch Konflikte wie im Nahen Osten könnten die Lebensmittelversorgung massiv verschlechtern. Milliarden Menschen fehlt zudem das Geld für eine gesunde Ernährung. Von C. Auerbach.

    “Irrigation plays a critical role in global food production and climate adaptation and exercises profound influence over humanity's water use. Yet despite its critical importance, there is a persistent lack of understanding of fine-scale irrigation patterns across the planet, knowledge which is essential for informing global food security and sustainability targets. Utilizing either statistical downscaling or remote sensing approaches, existing global irrigation datasets are constrained by coarse spatial resolutions, a lack of timeliness, or varying robustness and reliability. To address this gap, here [they] integrate[d] multi-source Earth observation and environmental datasets and use[d] machine learning to develop a medium-resolution (30 metre) global irrigated area dataset for the 2023/24 growing season. Within existing cropland extent, we leverage a newly compiled set of georeferenced irrigated (N=230,683) and non-irrigated (N=153,194) ground-truth points and integrate seasonal vegetation metrics derived from Landsat 8/9 imagery with agroecological-zone information and hydroclimatic and topographic variables. [They] subsequently develop and evaluate two machine-learning frameworks, a continental Agro-Ecological Zone (AEZ) tile-based framework and a continental-scale framework, and apply the best-performing approach for each continent. Evaluation using held-out test samples yielded a global accuracy of 80.5 ± 2.1%. The resulting maps were also validated against independent global and national irrigation datasets and statistics, demonstrating broad agreement in the spatial distribution of irrigated areas. This approach is robust and reliable because it is built on a harmonized global ground-truth database, incorporates multiple predictors, and is rigorously validated using independent datasets. All code, ground-truth, and data products are freely and publicly available [link above] and can serve as a robust, scale-neutral, and fully reproducible framework for fine-resolution irrigation mapping. These advances provide the critical and long-needed foundation for near-real-time monitoring and early warning systems, and fine-scale land and water resource management…”
