Helping to deliver results for our Members across countries

NEW: Programme, Budget and HR Dashboard

FAO Programme of Work and Budget (PWB) outlines the corporate planned activities and financial resources for a specific period, typically a biennium (two-year period). The PWB is a key part of FAO's Medium Term Plan (MTP), which sets the overall direction and strategic objectives of the organization. The PWB serves as a framework for FAO's operations, providing a roadmap for achieving its goals and ensuring accountability for the use of resources.

Inside FAO programmes

Technical Cooperation Programme

The Technical Cooperation Programme (TCP) allows FAO to draw from its own regular programme resources and respond to countries’ most pressing needs for technical assistance.

FAO-GEF partnership

As a partner agency for the Global Environment Facility (GEF), FAO supports countries worldwide in addressing the complex challenges at the nexus between the environment, agriculture, forestry, marine and freshwater resources.

Connect Portal

The private sector – big or small, local or global – is a key ally in the global fight against food insecurity, malnutrition and rural poverty. The ambitious 2030 Agenda requires all forms of partnership and resources to achieve the SDGs for the benefit of this generation and generations to come.

As part of FAO’s commitment to transparency in the implementation of its programmes, contributing to improved accountability, coordination and effectiveness of our work towards the 2030 Agenda,  FAO joined IATI, the International Aid Transparency Initiative, originally launched in 2008 at the High Level Forum on Aid Effectiveness in Accra. IATI was designed with the aim to publicly disclose information on development expenditures and meet the needs of all stakeholders for information on where, when, by whom, how and on what development funds are spent. 

Since May 2017, FAO publishes IATI data on a quarterly basis for all Trust Fund and TCP projects to IATI Data Registry. The FAO IATI data has been used to inform the Project Dashboard.
