Synopsis (short abstract) The Country Programming Framework for Grenada (CPF) for the period 2011-2016 summarizes the effort to align FAO’s assistance to Grenada in a coherent Programming Framework aligned to national priorities. The CPF is a planning, management and monitoring tool through which both Grenada and FAO identify a set of medium-term priorities for FAO assistance, consistent with the policies and development goals pursued by the Government and the strategy pursued by FAO as a world organization, around whic h a consistent programming framework is developed and presented in a results-based matrix. Its overall goal is to pursue the development of sustainable agriculture, fisheries and forestry as a contribution to the eradication of poverty and hunger, improving the living standards of all Grenadians, especially the poorest, most food insecure, most vulnerable, in an economically, socially and environmentally sustainable manner. This goal also responds to the intensive challenges from the global eco nomic crisis, instability of food prices and impact of climate change, which threatens the human conditions of so many Grenadians, especially those that are most food insecure.
