    The Country Programming Framework (CPF) is a framework for agreed priorities in the co-operation between the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and FAO. It is a planning and management tool for FAO to prioritize, guide and manage its assistance at the country level in a coherent, comprehensive and structured manner for a period of four years (2013-2016). It is anticipated that this framework shall remain relevant until the closure of 2016; however being a living document it can be updated whenever warra nted as a result of implementation and/or emergence of pressing issues. This document contains a set of priority areas and activities for FAO’s assistance in support of the attainment of UAE’s policy objectives related to agriculture (including livestock), fisheries, natural resources, food safety and food and nutrition security, including gender and capacity development. The CPF is jointly owned and led by the UAE through the Ministry of Environment and Water (MOEW) and FAO. It is therefore f ramed within and governed by the national medium-term development priorities articulated in UAE Development Strategies and Plans that set out the Government priority policies and investments for achieving economic growth and prosperity.
