Synopsis (short abstract) This Country Programming Framework (CPF) sets out five government priority areas to guide the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations' (FAO) partnership and support to the Government of Nigeria (GoN) – bringing together innovative international best practices and global standards with national and regional expertise during a five-year period from 2018 to 2022. The priority areas are: 1. Strengthen national food security and nutrition through enhanced nutrition-sensitive and climate smart food systems. 2. Support for appropriate and operationally effective agricultural policy and regulatory frameworks. 3. Support to Nigeria's economic diversification agenda and the promotion of decent employment for youth and women in the agriculture value chains 4. Improve efficient and sustainable management of natural resources and ecosystems. 5. Enhance disaster risk reduction, resilience building and emergency management towards strengthening the Humanitarian Development Nexus. The CPF is anchored in several national documents, which are directed at addressing a myriad of challenges to the rapid development of the agricultural sector. The documents include the Agricultural Promotion Policy (APP) - the Green Alternative, which aims to set the agricultural sector on a growth path that will ensure that output is sufficient to meet domestic food requirements and export quality levels. The Federal Government's Agriculture Promotion Policy, The Green Alternative, builds on the gains made by the Agricultural Transformation Agenda. It aims to work with key stakeholders to build an agribusiness economy that can deliver sustained prosperity, inclusive and equitable growth by meeting domestic food security goals, generating exports and supporting sustainable income and job growth

    The Country Programming Framework (CPF) 2023–2027 is FAO Nigeria's 5-year medium term strategic document that outline specific pillars of programming support to the Government of Nigeria, in alignment with the country's priorities as spelled out in various policy and strategic documents to guide sustainable agricultural development and natural resources management. The CPF takes into cognizance the FAO global Strategic Framework 2022–2031, which was developed in the context of recent global and regional developments, trends, and the major challenges in the areas of FAO’s mandate to increase access to and improve the quality of food to all people at all times. The CPF is tailored to also align with the priorities of the United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF), the vision of Nigeria’s National Development Plan (NDP) while ensuring that Agenda 2030 is achieved and no one is left behind in the development of the country. FAO Nigeria Country Office will hinge the operational activities of the CPF on four strategic pillars and priority areas. These priorities consider the FAO’s competence and comparative advantages in assisting the Government of Nigeria to achieve the country’s vision of development as well as the vision of change in the UNSDCF. These priority areas include:1. Sustainable and inclusive agrifood systems for improved productivity: this will be implemented by strengthening inclusive, climate smart agrifood value chains and diversified production systems as well as inclusive economic development through decent jobs.2. Increasing resilience of food and agriculture-based livelihood systems: achievable by strengthening national, state, local and community-level capacities for disaster risk management, anticipatory action, efficient response to agricultural threats, emergencies, and resilience building. 3. Healthy and nutritious diets: by supporting enhanced food security and improved nutrition, including promoting nutritious food and increasing access to healthy diets.4. Sustainable natural resources management and climate action: by supporting improved sustainable natural resource management and climate action.The effective implementation of the CPF will expectedly require funding, so it will be financed from the partnership approaches, and collaborations with all stakeholders in the resource mobilization efforts. Generally, FAO shall leverage additional resources to implement this CPF from different bilateral and multilateral donors.

    The FAO Country Programming Framework (CPF) is a planning and management tool which outlines how FAO can best assist a country in meeting its development priorities, setting out jointly-agreed, medium-term priorities for Government-FAO collaboration. In mid-2016 the FAO WBGS Office started the process of developing the CPF for Palestine. In order to shape this document, the Palestine Context Analysis was produced to collect and critically analyze the required background information/data to develop the theory of change, supporting the CPF design and implementation. A participatory approach was used throughout the second half of 2016 and early 2017, aiming to achieve a common understanding among all stakeholders involved with the issues to be addressed by the CPF. The meetings, interviews and participatory discussions with all relevant stakeholders made the achievement of consensus possible around FAO’s view on how to address the issues. The Palestine Context Analysis shapes the FAO Country Programming Framework for Palestine (2018-2022) which is fully aligned with FAO’s Global Strategic Framework and the FAO Regional Priorities outlined in the three Regional Initiatives for the Near East and North Africa Region: (i) Water Scarcity, (ii) Building Resilience for Food Security and Nutrition, and (iii) Small-scale Family Farming for Inclusive Development. The Palestine Context Analysis (CA) defines the Theory of Change, illustrating the changes that FAO will aim at introducing through the FAO Country Programming Framework for Palestine (2018-2022). The CA was done using a participatory approach in order to achieve a common understanding among all involved stakeholders of the issues.

    The Nepal Country Programming Framework (CPF) sets out three priority areas of the Government of Nepal (GoN) to guide FAO’s partnership and support, bringing together innovative international best practices and global standards with national and regional expertise. It aims at supporting the government efforts towards addressing sustainable and competitive agricultural production for poverty reduction and eradication of hunger and malnutrition; resilient natural resource management and agricultural production system; and inclusive and gender responsive livelihoods enhancement. The CPF outlines the key priority areas of FAO technical assistance support to and partnership with the Government of Nepal in period of five years from 2018 to 2022. The formulation process of this CPF (2018-2022) involved a wide range of consultations among national stakeholders including line ministries of the Government of Nepal, civil society, private sector, development partners and relevant United Nations agencies including the Rome based agencies (RBAs) . It also brought together technical inputs of FAO staff in both FAO Headquarters in Rome and the Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific in Bangkok. This CPF document does not prescribe a rigid framework; rather, it can be revisited and adjusted when required according to the changes in government priorities during the period.
