Resumen
Descripción
In 2022, the Government of Sweden, through the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency, contributed nearly SEK 141 million (USD 14.5 million) to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). Thanks to this support, FAO implemented 18 projects from 1 January 2022 to 31 May 2023 centred on scaling up agricultural support to communities affected by crises across ten countries, including Afghanistan, Burkina Faso, Colombia, Madagascar, Mali, the Niger, Nigeria, Somalia, Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe. Through these projects, FAO delivered emergency agricultural assistance to support smallholder farmers and local food production – an integral source of livelihoods for rural communities and a bedrock of global food security.
