| dc.description | The project, developed by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), international partners, and stakeholders in countries, aims to support national efforts and programmes to reduce the spread and impact of red palm weevil (RPW). FAO has established a framework for cooperation and coordination of efforts at the regional level to support integrated and sustainable management programmes for the red palm weevil and reduce its devastating effects on the environment, food security, and its social and economic impact on rural communities. The programme focuses on developing policies and phytosanitary regulations to control the spread of the red palm weevil, supporting research and innovative approaches to monitor the pest, developing sustainable management methods, studying the social and economic impacts of the weevil, supporting capacity development, enhancing the participation of farmers and other stakeholders, and facilitating the transfer of knowledge and technology in the areas of integrated pest management and phytosanitary systems, and strengthening certified palm propagation systems.Studies and working tasks were designed for five technical working groups focusing on these areas, and 15 work packages were identified as priorities to be worked on. Funds were allocatedto finance the implementation of these programmes. Regional programme committees and secretariats were established, and national focal points were nominated from 18 Near East and North African countries. | |
