Calls for submissions
Calls for submissions are open invitations for well-structured feedback. Participants are asked to complete a template form that provides guidance for the preparation of the contribution. Calls for submissions allow participants to share their experiences, best practices and recommendations on a specific theme and to learn from others, while they also enable facilitators to analyse case studies in a well-documented and comprehensive manner. Participants’ input feeds into stocktaking and monitoring and evaluation exercises undertaken by FAO or external partners, providing them with valuable information and insight for further action. Calls for submissions usually remain online for several months to allow participants to share complete and insightful contributions. The submissions are compiled in a proceedings document, and the most interesting cases are included in technical reports.
