The Country Programme Framework 2023 - 2027 for Nigeria describes FAO’s medium term assistance priorities and results, derived from nationally defined priorities and objectives, to be achieved over the five-year period of the country’s programming cycle. In order to ensure its national ownership, the CPF has been prepared in close collaboration with key Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs), Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) and major development partners. The CPF describes the four broad priority areas and outcomes for FAO assistance in the country.

The Four priorities are:

1.       SUSTAINABLE AND INCLUSIVE AGRI-FOOD SYSTEMS FOR IMPROVED PRODUCTIVITY: by strengthening inclusive, climate smart agrifood value chains and diversified production systems as well as inclusive economic development through decent jobs.

2.       INCREASING RESILIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE – BASED LIVELIHOOD SYSTEMS: by strengthening national, state, local and community-level capacities for disaster risk management, anticipatory action, efficient response to agricultural threats, emergencies, and resilience building.

3.       HEALTHY AND NUTRITIOUS DIETS: by supporting enhanced food security and improved nutrition, including promoting nutritious food and increasing access to healthy diets.
