Focal point
Location
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations leads international efforts to defeat hunger. Serving both developed and developing countries, FAO acts as a neutral forum where all nations meet as equals to negotiate agreements and debate policy. FAO is also a source of knowledge and information. We help developing countries and countries in transition modernize and improve agriculture, forestry and fisheries practices and ensure good nutrition for all. Since our founding in 1945, we have focused special attention on developing rural areas, home to 70 percent of the world's poor and hungry people.

O Brasil e a FAO
Como membro fundador da FAO, ao longo dos últimos 70 anos, o Brasil tem estabelecido parcerias com a FAO para erradicar a fome, a insegurança alimentar e a subnutrição e melhorar os meios de subsistência rural. O Brasil é um dos principais parceiros do Programa de Cooperação Sul-Sul da FAO, e desempenha um papel fundamental na área de emergências, na qual deve se tornar um dos principais apoiadores das iniciativas da FAO para a criação de meios de subsistência resilientes diante de ameaças e crises.
