 The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations has embraced South-South and Triangular Cooperation, also known as SSTC, as a key delivery modality to catalyse agricultural development, food security, rural development, poverty reduction and nutrition over the past two decades. A remarkable trend during the past three decades has been the rapid economic transformation across the developing world, which has made SSTC gain even stronger emphasis in global development frameworks. Since 1997, SSTC projects have been implemented in FAO for a total of US$435 million. In 2020, FAO established the South-South and Triangular Cooperation Division to scale up FAO's programs and projects to accelerate the implementation of the 2030 agenda. FAO has also recently developed a new SSTC guideline for action, which represents a shift from the ADOC SSTC activities to a more programmatic, focused, results-based, systematic, quality-assured and service-driven integrated approach. This will help in scaling up technical and financial partnership to support agriculture and food systems transformation and development in the global south. The FAO work on South-South Triangular Cooperation for 2022-2025 will be channelled under four strategic focus areas, one advocacy and agenda setting, two brokering knowledge, three partnerships and collaborations, and four evidence-based and adapted learning. The SSTC guideline for action also features thematic areas of focus such as hand-in-hand initiative, agricultural innovation, digital agriculture, agri-food transformation, small island developing states and COVID-19 recovery and response. Diversifying the financial modalities and partner base is at the heart of the new SSTC guideline for action. FAO will reach out and engage with more non-traditional partners such as private finance and investment to diversify the funding and investment opportunities. FAO is recognized by its members and development partners as an innovative, inclusive, inspiring and trusted partner that fully leverages proven development solutions, resources, knowledge and technologies from the global south.
