Green Room

Learn about the specificities of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) vis-à-vis other UN agencies in the scaling agenda and derive insights on institutional and resource mobilization approaches that FAO could pursue to maximize the contribution of innovations to the Sustainable Development Goal 2 target. Two innovation stories and their pathways to scale will be illustrated in a play, then different stakeholder groups will reflect and intervene with their scaling approach.
