On request from its member countries, FAOs Technical Cooperation Programme (TCP) supports countries through small projects which address specific problems in the agriculture, fisheries and forestry sectors. TCP projects may be national, regional or inter-regional. In the framework of a regional TCP project for Armenia, Georgia and the Republic of Moldova on Capacity building in agricultural biotechnologies and biosafety, a regional training workshop on Risk assessment of GMOs in food, seeds and environment was held on 3-6 October 2010 in Yerevan, Armenia. See the workshop website for background and presentations from the workshop or contact [email protected] for more information.
