Italian Research Institutions
The Italian Research Institutions which fall under the collaboration agreement signed with FAO in 2015 and renewed in 2019 are: the Italian National Research Council (CNR); the Council for Agricultural Research and the Assessment of Agricultural Economics (CREA); the Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development (ENEA) and the Italian Institute for the Environmental Research and Protection (ISPRA).
The partnership aims to enhance the sustainability of food production and nutrition in countries with economies in transition, by developing integrated approaches, consolidating and disseminating agricultural innovations, enhancing agri-food chains, and implementing advocacy and knowledge exchange activities.
