FAO – Türkiye Partnership Programmes 

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and Türkiye share a long-standing, steadfast partnership dedicated to addressing the most pressing global challenges of our time, including climate change, water scarcity, hunger, and food security. Driven by the established FAO-Türkiye Partnership Programmes, this enduring cooperation focuses on reducing rural poverty and promoting the sustainable management of natural resources. 

Through these deeply rooted programmes, FAO and Türkiye provide vital funding, extensive expertise, and shared experiences to empower communities across Central Asia, the Caucasus, Europe, the Balkans and Africa. By actively working to combat desertification, preserve fragile ecosystems, and build resilient agricultural systems, our continuous collaboration produces meaningful solutions for a sustainable world.
