The Multipartner Programme Support Mechanism (FMM) of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) is an innovative fund for partners willing to contribute to FAO’s work through unearmarked or slightly earmarked funds. The funds are used strategically to support progress towards a world without hunger or poverty, and where natural resources are used sustainably. Read more about our work partnering to achieve a world free of hunger.

This annual report details results achieved, progress made and lessons-learned in 2016. We are confident that results achieved in countries and the demonstrated benefits of unearmarked funding described will continue to generate enthusiasm for this type of instrument.

The 2015 evaluation of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Multipartner Programme Support Mechanism (FMM) was conducted by FAO’s Office of Evaluation (OED) to assess the progress made in implementing the accepted recommendations of the 2013 FMM mid-term evaluation (MTE), as well as to assess FMM outcomes and impacts at field level.
