Conference Room 8, United Nations Headquarters, New York (Webcasted)
FAO and the United Nations Office for South-South Cooperation (UNOSSC) are jointly organizing a side event on the occasion of the 22nd Session of the High-level Committee on South-South Cooperation: “South-South and Triangular Cooperation Gateway: facilitating access to digital and innovative technologies for more efficient, more inclusive, more resilient, more sustainable agrifood systems”.
The side event will launch the new FAO South–South and triangular cooperation (SSTC) Gateway Platform. Leveraging SSTC for sustainable development, especially through science, technology, and innovation – including the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) via other FAO platforms such as the Agrifood Systems Technologies and Innovations Outlook (ATIO) platform - is one of the aims of the platform. The SSTC Gateway Platform will also:
- Promote dialogue, knowledge sharing, networking, partnerships and collaboration for capacity building and uptake of good practices and innovations from the agrifood sector – in close collaboration with the UNOSSC Galaxy portal.
- Facilitate more effective SSTC exchanges and matchmaking between Solutions Seekers and Providers, as partners interested in showcasing their institutions and expertise in the areas of agriculture and food security, will have their own space to showcase this information.
