No results found.The Sustainable Development Goals and Africa’s Agenda 2063 define the context in which FAO collaborates with its partners to advance Africa’s development priorities over the next decades. Launched in 2013, the Africa Solidarity Trust Fund (ASTF) provides catalytic and flexible funding to Africa-to-Africa initiatives on food and agriculture, at the regional and country level. As an FAO initiative, the ASTF already proves its success rating as an innovative African-led instrument for sustainable development. By unlocking the potential of intra-African cooperation to bring about rural transformation, the ASTF is a unique funding mechanism that pools resources from Africa to address critical gaps in the development agenda of African countries. Harnessing homegrown knowledge, technology and good practices for food and nutrition security is at the core of this initiative. With an initial USD 40 million from Equatorial Guinea and Angola and symbolic contributions from civil society organizations, the ASTF enables FAO to assist African countries in addressing agricultural issues linked to peace, food security and nutrition, employment, environment, and climate change while creating a positive impact locally. -
