Descripción

FAO is recognized as a leading facilitator of South-South Cooperation (SSC) for food security and agricultural development. With over two decades of experience, FAO has helped to “make the match” between Southern country demand and supply, as well as ensure the quality of exchange. Middle Income Countries (MICs) are increasingly contributing to the global development agenda, and many are leading figures in SSC, providing technical expertise and financial support to countries in the South. To dat e, demand for SSC is outstripping supply. More and more countries are requesting FAO to facilitate SSC, recognizing the Organization’s role as central broker and seeing SSC as a cost-effective and highly relevant means for agricultural development, based on principles of mutual benefit and solidarity.
