Momentum grows for strengthened South South Cooperation

The Asia-Pacific Regional Consultation on South-South Cooperation is convened by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO).

“The purpose of this consultation is to provide a platform for representatives of national governments, regional and international institutions and other stakeholders to share their experiences and identify opportunities to bridge the technological gap in the food and agriculture sectors,” said Hiroyuki Konuma, FAO Assistant Director-General and Regional Representative for Asia and the Pacific.

Konuma stressed the importance of South-South Cooperation (SSC), as a cost-effective and increasingly popular mechanism for sharing knowledge, resources and developing capacities among developing countries.
