    Middle-Income Countries Prove Key South-South and Triangular Partners in the fight against Hunger 2015
    Also available in:
    FAO is recognized as a leading facilitator of South-South Cooperation (SSC) for food security and agricultural development. With over two decades of experience, FAO has helped to “make the match” between Southern country demand and supply, as well as ensure the quality of exchange. Middle Income Countries (MICs) are increasingly contributing to the global development agenda, and many are leading figures in SSC, providing technical expertise and financial support to countries in the South. To dat e, demand for SSC is outstripping supply. More and more countries are requesting FAO to facilitate SSC, recognizing the Organization’s role as central broker and seeing SSC as a cost-effective and highly relevant means for agricultural development, based on principles of mutual benefit and solidarity.

    Agricultural statistics, particularly on rice production data, is essential for ensuring effective policy planning, implementation and monitoring of national policies on crops development. However, many countries still face challenges in developing capacities on agricultural statistics. The countries of the Coalition for African Rice Development (CARD) needed to overcome these challenges in order to set up their national rice development strategies. This project was designed as a response to the increasing demand for South-South and Triangular Cooperation (SSTC) on rice production statistics, as countries seek to build on the specific strengths and experiences of those who have progressed further in upscaling their anti-hunger programmes.
