Regional Technical Platform on Green Agriculture

The main objective and driving force for establishing a Regional Technical Platform on Green Agriculture in Europe and Central Asia is to facilitate the sharing of knowledge within the region and among other regions on the various areas of green agriculture, with the involvement of international, national and local development partners, building on good experiences and enhancing regional and interregional collaboration.

The Regional Technical Platform on Green Agriculture provides a digital, user-friendly, open, intraregional and interregional gateway for sharing information. It is a knowledge repository that facilitates connections among expert networks regarding various technical areas related to green agriculture.

The Regional Technical Platform on Green Agriculture aims at contributing to more efficient, inclusive, resilient and sustainable agrifood systems, in line with the FAO Strategic Framework and under the so-called “four betters” – better production, better nutrition, a better environment and a better life – while leaving no one behind.
