Info
UNIDO is a specialized agency of the United Nations with a unique mandate to promote, dynamize and accelerate industrial development. Our mandate is reflected in Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 9: “Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation”, but UNIDO’s activities contribute to all the SDGs. UNIDO’s vision is a world without poverty and hunger, where industry drives low-emission economies, improves living standards, and preserves the livable environment for present and future generations, leaving no one behind. UNIDO provides support to its 172 Member States through four mandated functions: technical cooperation; action-oriented research and policy-advisory services; normative standards-related activities; and fostering partnerships for knowledge and technology transfer. Our work is concentrated on three focus areas: - ending hunger by helping businesses from farm to fork; - stopping climate breakdown by using renewable energy and energy efficiency to reduce industrial greenhouse gas emissions; and - supporting sustainable supply chains so that developing country producers get a fair deal and scarce resources are preserved.

Coffee is one of the most consumed beverages globally. However, in many coffee-producing countries, farmers struggle to earn a living wage from their coffee production. This is the #CoffeeParadox. Despite the increasing importance of coffee in global consumption, the benefits from the expansion of the coffee industry have not always trickled down to the people across the whole value chain. The sector is burdened by several challenges: 📉 Volatile market prices 🌡️ Climate change impacts 💸 Rising production costs 👵 Aging workforce 🚺 Gender inequality Women and young people face substantial challenges in the industry. Despite women contributing 70% of the labour, they hold only 20% of the land ownership and leadership positions. Addressing this gender imbalance and supporting these vital contributors is crucial. To tackle the coffee paradox, we need to better integrate farmers into the global value chain, ensure fair compensation, and promote gender equality. 🔎 Stay tuned to learn more about coffee during UNIDO's presence at the Rimini Meeting (Fondazione Meeting per l’amicizia fra i popoli ETS) next week. #CoffeeFacts #UNIDO #UNIDORimini

In 2023, an estimated 733 million people faced hunger worldwide, marking a nearly 20% increase since 2019. Additionally, 2.33 billion people experienced moderate to severe food insecurity, with over 864 million of these individuals suffering from severe food insecurity, meaning they ran out of food at times during the year. Despite these alarming figures, a world without hunger is possible. The upcoming World Without Hunger Conference (#WWHC) will explore critical topics, investment opportunities, and solutions for post-harvest loss reduction and agro-industrialization. As the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (#UNIDO), we aim to leverage cutting-edge technologies and expert knowledge to create lasting impacts on global food systems and drive meaningful progress toward eradicating hunger. Speaking on behalf of UNIDO at the G20 Development Ministerial Meeting, Cecilia Ugaz Estrada emphasized the crucial role of industry in creating a world without hunger: “With the advanced knowledge and technology that is already available to us, we can optimize resource use and efficiency, create unprecedented access to healthy, nutritious food, and generate decent jobs at the same time.” Let this serve as a call to action for all stakeholders to unite and turn our shared vision into reality. 👉 Find more information here: https://lnkd.in/daPDdGJU | African Union | Ethiopian Ministry of Industry(የኢፌዴሪ ኢንዱስትሪ ሚኒስቴር) | FAO | #WorldWithoutHunger #ZeroHunger #SDGs #GlobalGoals #EndHunger #WWHC2024 #AWorldWithoutHungerIsPossible

We are honored to have Gunther Beger as keynote speaker at our Sustainability osapiens Summit 2024! 🎉 As Managing Director for SDG Innovation and Economic Transformation at the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) and former Director General at the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) he has significantly contributed to initiatives like the "Green Button" label and the German Partnership for sustainable textiles, ensuring high ecological and social standards in the textile supply chain. Gunther Beger has a clear opinion on the opportunities and challenges that the implementation of the regulations presents for supply chains and their stakeholders: "Global supply chains are more complex than ever. We need an inclusive approach in establishing and harmonizing global social and environmental standards taking into account the interests of all actors along the supply chain. The private sector is essential in our quest to close the SDG gap and adopt fair and sustainable business solutions. The SoS.24 presents a great opportunity to foster corporate environmental and social responsibility." His talk, "CSDDD, LkSG and the Importance of More Sustainable Supply Chains," promises to offer deep insights into the evolving landscape of supply chain sustainability and regulatory compliance. With his extraordinary expertise in the national and international political and economic environment, Gunther Beger will give us comprehensive insights into why regulations such as CSDDD and LkSG are important and what impact this has on all parts of supply chains. With the support of the Summit Patron Dr. Gerd Müller, Director at the United Nations Industrial Development Organization, and the insights into the effects of regulations on all parts of supply chains by Gunther Beger, we look forward to seeing the impact the SoS.24 will have on the sustainable future we're all anticipating. Mark your calendars for September 11-12 and don't miss the chance to hear Gunther Begers keynote at #Sos24 - The leading Corporate Sustainability Event in Europe! 🇪🇺🌱
