Much still needs to be done in order to mobilize sufficient resources and support to meet the global necessities related to the eradication of hunger, malnutrition and poverty globally. Deepening our engagement with key resource partners and fostering new alliances with like-minded players is essential for generating real and far-reaching impact on the ground. This report provides a comprehensive overview of the European Union's strong partnership and valuable contribution to the work of FAO in the period 2016-2017, highlighting concrete results achieved in relation to food security, nutrition, resilience and sustainability at country, regional and international level.
