Global Forum on Food Security and Nutrition (FSN Forum)

The FAO Science and Innovation Strategy Action Plan (2022-25) provides a common framework for FAO action at the country, sub-regional, regional and global levels. The FAO Science and Innovation Strategy is a tool to support the delivery of the FAO Strategic Framework 2022–31 and hence the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The Strategy’s Action Plan is a living document covering four years (2022–25), and it will be updated, as needed, to reflect new needs, opportunities and challenges. The Action Plan was developed through an inclusive and transparent consultative process, drawing on inputs from all relevant FAO streams and the Regional, Sub-regional and Country Offices, as well as guidance and feedback from Members. The Action Plan follows the structure of the Strategy with 3 pillars, 9 outcomes and 2 enablers. It links the Strategy’s outcomes and enablers to relevant SDG targets and Programme Priority Areas. Under each of the outcomes and enablers, the Action Plan introduces several outputs, which are achieved through key areas of work, reflecting FAO’s priorities for supporting Members to harness science and innovation. The Strategy’s guiding principles are inter-linked and guide all of the Organization’s science and innovation-related work in line with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
