This year's Annual General Assembly will take place on 26-27 November 2024, under the theme "Financing Food Systems Transformation and Rural Revitalization: Opportunities and Challenges". We will examine how the international community is rethinking the use of limited Official Development Assistance (ODA) donor resources in food and nutrition. This includes exploring innovative financing, better coordination of donor approaches, and stronger harmonization of stakeholder engagement.
This special episode of the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD)'s podcast Farms. Food. Future. takes us behind the scenes of the Donor Platform's work.
