Descripción
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) is working with the Government of Lao People's Democratic Republic to enhance responsible investments in agriculture and food systems in the country by supporting the implementation of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations Guidelines on Promoting Responsible Investment in Food, Agriculture and Forestry (ASEAN RAI) Guidelines. This collaboration comprises, supporting the Government in enhancing the enabling environment conducive to RAI, empowering women and youth organizations to engage in and benefit from RAI and raising awareness on RAI and the important role youth and women play.
To shed more light on how to better support youth to invest in agriculture and sensitize them on the importance and opportunities this sector can offer, FAO interviewed young Lao people who have been able to invest in agriculture and become successful agri-entrepreneurs. This work is supported by the FAO Flexible Multi-Partner Mechanism (FMM).
