What does FAO hope to achieve through collaboration with the private sector?
As an Organization, FAO’s primary responsibility is assisting Member Nations specifically developing countries to strengthen the local private sector and particularly the farmers, agro-industries and business associations. Its activities also build on the premise that resources needed to attain the Millenium Development Goal(MDG) of hunger and poverty will have to be complemented, for the most part, with private resources and investment. Reducing poverty and ensuring that no-one goes hungry is FAO’s ultimate goal.
