Synopsis (short abstract) FAO recognizes that no single body can undertake the mammoth task of eradicating hunger on its own and has placed partnerships at the very heart of its operations. Common food security goals have been achieved through the establishment of strategic partnerships. FAO works together with a large number of partners: UN agencies, Member Governments, bilateral donor agencies, development banks, regional organizations, producer organizations and cooperatives, academic and research institutions, privat e sector companies and associations, special purpose coalitions and many others. Partners bring technical skills, financial resources, local knowledge and historical and practical experience to the task. These contribute to increasing efficiency, effectiveness and impact.

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations is tasked with an ambitious mandate as outlined in its five new Strategic Objectives - to help eliminate hunger, food insecurity and malnutrition; make agriculture, forestry and fisheries more productive and sustainable; reduce rural poverty; enable inclusive and efficient agricultural and food systems; increase the resilience of livelihoods to disasters. FAO recognizes that no single entity can undertake the mammoth task of eradicating hunger on its own and has placed partnerships at the very heart of its operations. Strategic partnerships are a critical means to achieving results allowing FAO to mobilize the best available knowledge and capacities in working toward common goals. Alongside natural alliances with other UN agencies, FAO welcomes the opportunity to work with bi-lateral donor agencies, development banks, regional organizations, civil society organizations, producers organizations and cooperatives, academic and re search institutions and the private sector. These relations are governed by strategic documents developed in 2013 to provide practical guidance to both FAO and its prospective partners to ensure the best possible outcomes.
