Each action sheet includes a project proposal in support of countries most in need for which FAO is leveraging high-level political, financial, and technical expertise. All action sheets are gathered on the Food Coalition web hub, where members of the Coalition - a multi-stakeholder global alliance for unified global action in response to COVID-19 - can easily access the action sheet project focused information and data as well as the funding gap on the ground, the type of assistance that would be required and decide how they wish to contribute: through voluntary contributions, provision of expert and expertise, innovative solutions and exchange of knowledge and experience.
