The Committee on Agriculture (COAG) is one of FAO’s Governing Bodies providing overall policy and regulatory guidance on issues relating to agriculture, livestock, food safety, nutrition, rural development and natural resource management.Established in 1971, the Committee has over 100 Member Nations and generally meets every two years, but may hold additional sessions if needed. [+] The 27th Session of COAG will take place from 28th September to 2nd October 2020 at FAO headquarters in Rome, Italy.

This year due to the COVID-19 crisis, World Water Week, which is typically held in Stockholm, Sweden, will this year become a virtual conference  between 24 and 28 August 2020. WWWeek At Home will bring together convenor-hosted, virtual adaptations of sessions on water and climate change originally destined for World Water Week 2020. FAO will host several engaging sessions, all of which are outlined below. Further info on the sessions will be provided via this page when they become available.

All times are CEST.
