| dc.description | This publication marks the 50th anniversary of the FAO Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific in Bangkok. It describes FAO priorities and activities in the region during 2001 till mid-2002. Agriculture is of crucial importance to the region, which is home to two-thirds of the world’s 800 million hungry people and three-fourths of the world’s farming households. As one of the largest UN specialized agencies with a mandate to fight hunger and rural poverty, since 1945 FAO has provided its expert ise in food production, distribution and rural development to member countries. This document gives an account of FAO priorities and programmes in areas ranging from production and access to food to sustainable rural development. Achieving food security for all is at the heart of FAO's efforts. FAO support to countries in the form of policy guidance and field projects is also explained. A summary of the main management issues, including the identification of medium-term priorities for interdisci plinary action over the next 15 years, is provided. | |
