The Food Chain Crisis – Intelligence and Coordination Unit (FCC-ICU) ensures coordination within the various components of the FCC. It oversees risk analysis and intelligence, and long-term threat forecasting within the framework. The FCC-ICU is based in the office of the Assistant Director-General of the Agriculture and Consumer Protection Department.
Some of the coordination activities of the FCC-ICU include: - assembling internal and external knowledge and advice for advancing substantive and procedural coordination and collaboration among the constituents of the FCC
- designing, negotiating and undertaking steps for the strengthening of inter departmental cooperation in profiling and promoting FAO’s food chain crises management
- supporting advocacy for prevention and early warning and enhancing opportunities of linkages, partnerships and complementarities
- contributing to the design of risk communication strategies along the food chain
The FCC-ICU also acts as the Secretariat of the FCC coordination mechanisms. |
