FAO Türkiye Newsletter, January 2024 – Issue #16

In the last issue of FAOTURN 2023, we have prepared a panorama of all the activities and events we have carried out as the Türkiye office in one year. We have implemented hundreds of events and dozens of projects in three different portfolio and Regular Programmes all over Türkiye. In this issue, we have prepared an informative compilation about our partnership programs in our cover file. 2023 was a very difficult year for Türkiye. The earthquakes on 6 February, which killed more than 50 000 people, were particularly challenging for everyone. FAO has been on the ground with producers from the first moment to ensure food security and reproduction in these regions, which are also important agricultural and food production basins of Türkiye. In this issue, our efforts to empower women in the sector and protect their rights also took an important place.
