United Nation- Food & Agriculture Organization( FAO) Role in the FSM:
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations’ Role in FSM
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations’ (FAO) role in FSM is to play a
Catalytic role in accelerating the achievement of the SDGs by linking agriculture and health,
Developing and strengthening interagency partnerships to foster a sustainable increase in
Production, trade and marketing of domestic agriculture products, and healthy consumption
of diverse, safe, healthy and nutritious food.
FAO’s work in FSM and the Pacific is guided by the key four pillars of FAO’s Organization’s
Strategic Framework (2022–2031):
1. Better production: Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns
Through efficient and inclusive food and agriculture supply chains at local, regional
And global level, ensuring resilient and sustainable agri-food systems in a changing
Climate and environment.
2. Better nutrition: End hunger, achieve food security and improve nutrition in all its
Forms, including promoting nutritious food and increasing access to healthy diets.
3. Better environment: Protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial and
marine ecosystems and combat climate change (reduce, reuse, recycle, residual
management) through more efficient, inclusive, resilient and sustainable agri-food
systems.
4. Better life: Promote inclusive economic growth
Additionally, FAO’s work in FSM and the Pacific is driven by FAO’s Pacific Multi-Country
Programming Framework (CPF) 2023-2027. The framework is the compass of FAO’s work in
the region and is informed by the development agendas of the 14 Pacific SIDS, the CPF is
strategically derived from the UNSDCF 2023-2027, which is also a result of profound
Consultations with governments. The CPF results are guided by FAO’s Strategic Framework
for 2022– 31 that places the 2030 Agenda at its center with the following three expected
Outcomes:
By 2027, people, communities and institutions are more empowered
And resilient to face diverse shocks and disasters, especially related to climate
Change, and ecosystems and biodiversity are better protected, managed and
restored.
By 2027, more people, particularly those at risk of being left behind,
Benefit from more equitable access to resilient, and gender-responsive, quality basic
Services, food security/nutrition and social protection systems.
By 2027, more people, especially those at risk of being left behind,
Contribute to and benefit from sustainable, resilient, diversified, inclusive and human-
Centered socioeconomic systems with decent work and equal livelihoods’
Opportunities, reducing inequalities and ensuring shared prosperity.
