How can FAO and Civil Society Organizations engage better?
Dear Colleagues, 
  We are happy to invite you to the new online consultation on « How can FAO and Civil Society Organizations engage better?« , launched by the Civil Society Organization Partnerships team under the FAO Partnerships and UN Collaboration Division.
This consultation is available in three languages:   EnglishEspañol and Français
The online Consultation is open until 6 October 2023
Over the years, Food and Agriculture Organization of UN has intensified its collaboration withcivil society organizations (CSOs). Hundreds have been involved in FAO’s technical work, emergency field operations, training and capacity building, and advocacy of best agricultural practices.   The current FAO Strategic Framework 2022-31 calls for transformative partnerships to contribute to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the 2030 Agenda’s aspiration of “Leaving No One Behind” and thus exploring a more strategic engagement with CSOs, capitalizing on the breadth and diversity of expertise and characteristics of CSOs. 
This online consultation aims to identify and understand the opportunities and challenges for better and more transformative engagement between FAO and CSOs.  Participants’ suggestions and ideas shared through this consultation will help strengthen the FAO-CSOs collaboration for the benefit of their shared objectives related to agrifood system transformation.
