Synopsis (short abstract) An online survey and a series of workshops were organized in 2022 to assess demand and expertise for South South Cooperaton (SSC) about Sustainable Land Management (SLM) and Ecosystems Restoration (ER). Three regions were selected: Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), Central Asia (CA) and Near East and North Africa (NENA). The knowledge brief sets out the case for investment in SSC in the context of SLM and ER. The availability of a rich pool of knowledge is highlighted, and the enthusiasm to share and to learn is emphasized.

More than 40 years ago, the first UN Conference on Technical Cooperation among Developing Countries, in Buenos Aires, laid important groundwork for South–South Cooperation, setting in motion a movement of reciprocal self-reliance that emphasizes developing countries collectively assisting one another. More recently, the Second High-level UN Conference on South–South Cooperation (known as BAPA+40, held in March 2019) highlighted the evolution of South–South Cooperation and its great potential for achieving development ambitions such as the UN Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development, and the African Union’s Agenda 2063.In the years between those landmark meetings, FAO has worked with a range of partners on successful South–South and Triangular Cooperation agreements to benefit Africa, including Brazil, China, the Republic of Korea, Morocco, the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela and Viet Nam.In the decade up to 2020, FAO also established and sustained two important trust funds for South–South Cooperation: the FAO–China Trust Fund (Phase II and III) and the FAO–Morocco Trust Fund.These Global South partners bring considerable knowledge and experience borne from decades of national development progress and international development assistance. Their cooperation embodies solidarity among peoples and countries of the Global South.Last update 04/10/2022

Africa’s population is set to grow to 1.5 billion by 2025, boosting rice demand but facing a shortfall in production and high import costs. Urbanization in Asia is also causing rice consumption to outstrip population growth. The South-South and Triangular Cooperation (SSTC) Capacity Development and Experience sharing for Rice Value Chain targets rice value-related national training, research, and extension institutions, as well as smallholder farmers, millers, traders, and national rice experts in Tanzania, Côte d’Ivoire and The Philippines.
