FAO in Nigeria

The Country Programme Framework 2023 - 2027 for Nigeria describes FAO’s medium term assistance priorities and results, derived from nationally defined priorities and objectives, to be achieved over the five-year period of the country’s programming cycle. The CPF describes the four broad priority areas and outcomes for FAO assistance to the country.
