DocumentProgrammingCountry Programming Framework for Palestine 2018-2022 2018
Also available in:
No results found.The FAO Country Programming Framework (CPF) is a planning and management tool which outlines how FAO can best assist a country in meeting its development priorities, setting out jointly-agreed, medium-term priorities for Government-FAO collaboration. In mid-2016 the FAO WBGS Office started the process of developing the CPF 2018-2022 for Palestine. The CPF was elaborated, building on the information collected in the Palestine Context Analysis, in close collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture (MoA), through a widely consultative process that engaged other ministries, government agencies, independent authorities, private sector, civil society, international organizations and international resource partners. This process aimed at identifying country needs and priorities in order to ensure that FAO’s assistance to the Palestinian people is relevant, coherent, and focused on feasible and achievable results considering FAO’s delivery capacity and resource mobilization potential in Palestine. The CPF sets out four priority areas for FAO partnership with the Palestinian Government for the period 2018-2022 consistent with national development priorities and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The CPF contributes to achieving many Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and specifically SDG2 – Zero Hunger. It also builds on the development of the successful collaboration between FAO and the Ministry of Agriculture (MoA) over the past decade, bringing together lessons learned from the implementation of FAO’s Programming Framework 2014-2017 with innovative international best practices. -

The Federal Government's Agriculture Promotion Policy, The Green Alternative, builds on the gains made by the Agricultural Transformation Agenda.
