Celebrating 80 Years of FAO: Recognizing Outstanding Contributions to South-South and Triangular Cooperation (SSTC)

2025-07-10, ()

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has embraced South-South and Triangular Cooperation (SSTC) as a catalytic means to advance agricultural development, food security and rural development.

Building on years of experience and an expanding portfolio, FAO has become a leading promoter and facilitator of SSTC in agriculture, food security and nutrition, in line with its growing institutional commitment to SSTC.

In 2025, FAO will mark its 80th anniversary, celebrating its technical leadership in food security, nutrition and agriculture worldwide. To commemorate the anniversary, FAO will introduce a special recognition to acknowledge outstanding contributions to SSTC, including good practices, successful partnerships, and innovative solutions that have significantly contributed to food security, agricultural transformation, and sustainable development, in line with the FAO’s efforts in SSTC.
