Resumen
Descripción
Iraq was one of the founding member states of the Organization. From 1945 and up to 1990, the Government has not only been an active member but also an important contributor to FAO Programmes. The FAO Representation in Baghdad was established in 1979, and became the second FAO Representation office and therefore, the second office in the world to assume the role of an independent Representation. Prior to 1979, there was a Senior Agricultural Advisor who operated from the Office of the Resident R epresentative UNDP, and handled a huge FAO Programme. FAO reactivated a modest Programme in late 1991, after the signature of the Memorandum of Understanding between the UN and the government of Iraq in May 1991 under the United Nation’s Programme for Humanitarian Assistance for Iraq.
