FAO's Strategic Framework, reviewed in 2016-17, provides direction for FAO's technical work and its Strategic Programmes (SPs) to effectively address the priorities in the region and ensure effective delivery of results at country level. The Reviewed Strategic Framework of FAO and its Medium Term Plan 2018-21 and Programme of Work and Budget 2018-19 were approved by the FAO Conference at its 40th Session in July 2017. The Conference appreciated the close alignment of FAO’s Strategic Objectives (SOs) with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). As supported by the Regional Conference at its 33rd Session, during 2016-17 FAO in the Asia and the Pacific region focused its work on four regional initiatives (RIs): the Regional Initiative on the Zero Hunger Challenge; the Regional Rice Initiative; the Regional Initiative on Blue Growth; and the Regional Initiative on Developing Local Value Chains for Food Security and Nutrition in the Pacific Island Countries. Other programmes and priority areas of work included Food Safety and “One Health”; Making Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries More Productive and Sustainable in the Context of Change Climate; SDGs, Monitoring and Agricultural Statistics; Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment; and Migration.
