South – South Cooperation in Agriculture Is Empowering Nigerian Farmers

Abstract

South-South Cooperation (SSC), refers to a mechanism for mutual the sharing and exchange of key development solutions—knowledge, experiences and good practices, policies, technology know-how, and resources—between and among countries in the global south. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) launched the SSC initiative in 1996, primarily supporting the implementation of the Special Programme for Food Security in several developing countries.
