ProjectEmpowering Rural Communities in Central Asia through Digital Transformation in Agriculture - FMM/GLO/171/MUL 2024
Also available in:
No results found.Rural communities in Europe and Central Asia grapple with a triple challenge: the urban-rural gap, gender disparities and the digital divide, which perpetuate a cycle of decline characterized by limited economic opportunities and inadequate services. Digital technologies have the potential to significantly alleviate the challenges encountered in rural areas by enabling instant virtual communication and access to e-services. Grounded in the FAO 1 000 Digital Villages Initiative (DVI), which aims to transform villages in Europe and Central Asia into hubs that are smarter, greener and richly digitally connected and interconnected, the project focused on accelerating the digital transformation of agriculture and rural areas in Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. Its efforts centred on laying the foundations for the development of digital villages across the countries with the goal to empower every village and rural community to utilize digital technologies to increase agricultural productivity and access to services and uplift rural livelihoods by leveraging their local strengths. -
ProjectAccelerating Agricultural Transformation and Sustainable Rural Development in Beneficiary Countries - FMM/GLO/158/MUL 2024
Also available in:
No results found.Agricultural innovation, the process that brings new or existing products, processes or ways of organization into use for the first time in a specific context, is central to transformative change of agrifood systems in least developed countries, low-income Land-locked Developing Countries, and low-income Small Island Developing States, as well as food crisis countries and large countries with high concentrations of poverty. The Hand-in-Hand (HIH) Initiative, launched in 2019, is a flagship of FAO and one of its core priority programme areas. It was developed as an innovative, comprehensive and fully integrated approach to support countries in addressing the above-mentioned issues. The overall objective of this subprogramme was the design, implementation, testing and strengthening of an alternative systematic approach to promoting agricultural innovation, linked systematically to recommendations for programmatic activities and investments for all HIH beneficiary countries. The support provided spanned across four FAO regions: Latin America and the Caribbean, the Near East and North Africa, Africa, and Asia and the Pacific. -
