This action sheet is part of a series of tools developed under the seven key priority areas of FAO's COVID-19 Response and Recovery programme, the FAO umbrella programme designed to proactively address the socioeconomic impacts of the pandemic. Each action sheet includes a project proposal in support of countries most in need for which FAO is leveraging high-level political, financial, and technical expertise. All action sheets are gathered on the Food Coalition web hub, where members of the Coalition - a multi-stakeholder global alliance for a unified global action in response to COVID-19 - can easily access the action sheet project-focused information and data as well as the funding gaps on the ground, the type of assistance that would be required and decide how they wish to contribute: through voluntary contributions, the provision of expertise, innovative solutions and an exchange of knowledge and experience.
