Today, FAO launched two new reports in time for the 160^th session of the Council:

-          FAO + Belgium: Inclusive approaches to end hunger and promote prosperity

-          FAO + Sweden: A report on partnership

Showcasing success stories and beneficiary testimonials from around the world, the reports demonstrate the impact of FAO’s partnerships with Belgium and Sweden in 2016-2017.

Both countries are firm supporters of flexible, un-earmarked funding. The reports thus also highlight how support to FAO’s Multipartner Programme Support Mechanism (FMM), the Special Fund for Emergency Activities (SFERA) and other innovative and multi-year facilities enables efficient collaboration towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals at national, regional and global levels.
