SPFS-Asia

The overall goal of the Regional SPFS Project in Asia is to ensure that all people in the countries involved have access at all times to the food they need for a healthy, active life and to alleviate poverty. This would be achieved by increasing agricultural production per unit area as well as ensuring stability in year-to-year production, on an economically viable and environmentally sustainable basis.

The immediate objective of the SPFS Asia Coordination Component (GCP/RAS/180/JPN) is to facilitate smooth and successful implementation of the project field activities and information management by deploying three experts in support of regional SPFS activities.

  • Dr. Shin Imai, Regional SPFS Coordinator, Jakarta, Indonesia
  • Ms. Eldygen Indrasari, Administrative Support, Jakarta, Indonesia
