Since its launch in 2010, FVC has supported global, regional, and country-level programmes.

By utilizing a programmatic approach, FVC maximizes the collective impact of multi-partner resources, ensuring funding reaches areas with the highest need. This approach delivers tangible results that positively affect lives and livelihoods. FVC's bi-annual newsletter, now in its first edition for 2025, aims to strengthen communication with partners, FAO’s implementing units, and other stakeholders. It includes updates on key FVC activities, partner feedback, success stories from the field, and examples of the four betters in action. Notably, the April 2025 issue coves FVC's field trip in the United Republic of Tanzania and five FVC-funded projects.
