    As of 2019, FAO has approximately 40 South-South and Triangular Cooperation (SSTC) projects in more than 90 host countries. Moreover, different Trust Funds (TFs) have been established, partnering with countries such as Brazil, the People’s Democratic Republic of China, Japan, Mexico, Morocco and the Republic of Korea. FAO’s SSTC Gateway is a platform designed to facilitate knowledge and partnership brokering for SSTC in the agriculture and rural development sector. The platform comprises good practices, technical guidance documents, videos from the agriculture and agri-food sector, a SSTC expertise database and allows users to submit SSTC-related inquiries. This scale-up note is part of a series of SSTC scale-up notes, which provide insight into FAO's role in SSTC.

    In the last 20 years, project partner countries such as Argentina, Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay and Peru, where 80 percent of cotton production is in the hands of family farmers or small-scale agriculture, have faced a decrease in cotton production, affecting the potential of thousands of farming families to generate income. South-South and Triangular Cooperation (SSTC) represents an opportunity for the exchange of knowledge and experiences, generating innovation in terms of technology and management of the cotton sector in the countries involved in the +Cotton Project. This scale-up note is part of a series of SSTC scale-up notes, which provide an insight into SSTC's latest partnerships and ventures to encourage countries across the global South to share resources and technologies to improve their ecosystems and economies.

    Global demand for South-South Cooperation (SSC) and Triangular Cooperation (TrC) is at an all-time high. Countries in the South have much to share given their recent experiences in overcoming development challenges, where one country context can readily relate to another. To achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), business as usual will not deliver at the pace and scale required and SSC has a crucial role to play. The corporate SSC Strategy is part of the Food and Agriculture Organizat ion of the United Nations’ (FAO) efforts to ensure the Organization is well positioned to rapidly respond to increasing requests to facilitate the scaling-up of knowledge and technologies that have contributed to enhancing agricultural and rural development and reducing hunger in the global South. The overarching strategy builds on FAO’s successful track record and sets out renewed direction, with focus on: 1. Facilitating exchanges of development solutions at the grassroots level 2. Promoting S SC knowledge networks and platforms at the institutional level 3. Providing upstream policy support 4. Fostering an enabling environment for effective SSC
