Specifically, the new LoA will contribute to the implementation of FAO’s strategic framework and its cross-cutting themes on Gender Equality and rural women’s empowerment, Inclusive rural transformation, and scaling-up investment; Green innovation and Small-scale producers’ equitable access to resources.
It will also contribute to regional priorities of ASEAN Member States (AMS) by supporting the implementation of the ASEAN Guidelines on Promoting Responsible Investment in Food, Agriculture and Forestry (ASEAN-RAI): Guideline 3 on women and youth; and the ASEAN Framework Action Plan on Rural Development and Poverty Eradication 2021-2025: Human pillar and Inclusivity pillar.
This new LoA covers three countries include Cambodia, Laos and the Philippines, from September 2021 to December 2022.
