Resumen
Descripción
The Near East and North Africa Region (NENA) faces the challenges of addressing a wide range of complex and intertwined issues associated with the management of natural resources, particularly land and water, and securing food supply for a growing population. To address these challenges, FAO has launched a Regional Initiative on Water Scarcity in the Near East. The overall goal of the initiative is to support member countries in identifying and streamlining policies and best practices in agricul ture water management, and beyond, that can significantly contribute to boosting agriculture productivity, improving food security and sustaining water resources. The initiative will identify critical areas that require action, assist in the formulation of a regional collaborative strategy and build broad partnerships to support its implementation.
