Belize and FAO Sign Country Programming Framework

The Government of Belize and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) signed the official country Programming Framework that will be implemented from 2022 to 2026. The framework is geared at outlining a strategic plan of cooperation between the Ministry of Agriculture, Food Security and Enterprise and the FAO in Belize.  Minister Jose Abelardo Mai says this framework is essential as it will guide various projects that will be implemented within the next four years.

Minister Mai says that although the framework agreement was signed today, there is still room for adjustment in the initial stages of these projects. He adds that they formulated the plan based on advice given by field technicians and were able to place focus on key areas of interest.
