As over 75 percent of rural families rely on agriculture for their livelihoods, ensuring access to inputs and new technologies is needed in order to enhance agricultural production and food security. The FAO-China South-South Cooperation (SSC) project in the Democratic Republic of the Congo has provided technical assistance to enhance the agricultural production of nearly 2 260 households. Thirteen Chinese experts and technicians provided assistance on crop production, horticulture, livestock, aquaculture, agricultural machinery and plant protection. The project has helped households to meet their cereal and vegetable needs, increased farmers’ net incomes and taught local farmers new agricultural technologies. It has also promoted the use of the dry bed method and enhanced the efficiency of extension services. Given adequate resources, the technologies and varieties introduced through the FAO- China SSC Programme could be utilized on a much larger scale, reaching more beneficiaries throughout the country. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetInspiration, inclusion and innovation: FAO–China South–South Cooperation Programme (2009-2019) 2019
Also available in:
The People’s Republic of China (China) has been one of FAO’s main partners in the promotion of South-South and triangular cooperation. In terms of cooperation among developing countries, China upholds the principles of equality and mutual trust, building equal partnerships with parity of ownership and responsibility, mutual benefit and win–win cooperation, which are highly valued by FAO. Together, FAO and China offer considerable development knowledge and solutions that are relevant to South-South exchanges. After more than two decades of increasing collaboration in supporting flows of technical assistance between developing countries, FAO and China established in 2009 the FAO-China South-South Cooperation Programme, supported by a Chinese Trust Fund of USD 80 million. This brochure reviews the Programme’s activities and achievements over the last ten years, lessons learned and prospects for the way forward. It highlights and illustrates the Programme’s distinctive features, particularly its inspiring, inclusive and innovative modalities of cooperation. Its multi-stakeholder approach brings together farmers’ cooperatives and associations, the private sector, academia and triangular partners, among other key actors. In this context, the Programme provides a platform for insights and perspectives of all development actors through its national, regional, interregional and global projects focusing on sustainable agricultural production, productivity and farmers’ livelihoods. The Programme is majorly contributing to the realization of Sustainable Development Goal 1: No poverty in all its forms everywhere; and Sustainable Development Goal 2: Zero hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture.
