FAO in North America

FAO's Liaison Office for North America in Washington, D.C., advises and assists in the development and implementation of FAO policies and programmes by facilitating communication and cooperation between FAO and the governments of Canada and the United States, and between FAO and the international and inter-American organizations based in Washington. By engaging key stakeholders and partners in the region – from government, the private sector and civil society – the Liaison Office works to harness the full potential of these relationships and forward FAO’s goal of defeating global hunger. It does this through

• policy advice and analysis
• government representation
• information sharing
• a range of administrative support activities.

Don’t go away, we’ll be right back!

We are currently redesigning our web site to strengthen our communication and outreach activities and better meet the information needs of our North American partners. Further details on FAO’s activities in North America will be available in these pages in the coming months. Please check back soon!
