FAO Goodwill Ambassadors and FAO Champions are people who use their talents and influence to draw people from all walks of life in all parts of the world into a collective fight against hunger and poverty

At a time when escalating threats demand that we act without delay to safeguard life, transform our agrifood systems to future-proof our planet and lock in sustainable outcomes, these valued individuals are making a significant impact. 

Goodwill Ambassadors and Champions all work towards a sustainable and food-secure world for everyone - helping FAO in the essential transformation to more efficient, inclusive, resilient, and sustainable agrifood systems for better production, better nutrition, a better environment, and a better life, leaving no one behind

The FAO Goodwill Ambassador Programme is dedicated to promoting FAO’s vision of a world without hunger. FAO Goodwill Ambassadors, distinguished people of talent and passion, have expressed their desire to help focus global attention on the noble aims of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations: a world free from hunger.
