The Food & Agricultural Commodity Systems Community (FACS Community) builds on the neutral convening power of UNDP to serve the learning needs of nearly 1000 project practitioners, global change makers, sector specialists and local leaders from government, business, international organizations, and civil society.

With members from 34 countries working on 12 food and agricultural commodities, our FACS Community supports the capacity development and knowledge management needs of a range of global and regional programmes, such as the UNDP Good Growth Partnership (GGP), the World Bank Food Systems, Land Use and Restoration Impact Program (FOLUR), the FAO-IFAD Food Systems Integrated Programme (FSIP), and the SECO Green Commodities Programme Phase III (GCP).

The FACS Community is more than technical learning. It focuses on advancing progressive practices and innovative systemic solutions in effective collaborative action and food systems governance, as well as promoting proven technical solutions in integrated landscape management, sustainable value chains, restoration, gender responsiveness, etc.

If you are a project practitioner, sector specialist, or local leader aiming to make an impact in food and agriculture, please join today our FACS Community digital collaboration space hosted on Involve Communities, a global platform uniting Communities of Practice driving systems change for the planet.
