Zambia

The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) is actively engaged in supporting Zambia's agricultural sector. Our initiatives focus on building resilience to climate-related threats such as droughts and floods, promoting sustainable agricultural practices, and supporting inclusive value chains. Through close collaboration with government partners and other stakeholders, FAO's work in Zambia aims to improve food and nutrition security, strengthen livelihoods, and foster resilient and sustainable agrifood systems across the country.
