The Country Programming Framework (CPF) sets out strategic pillars of expertise to guide FAO partnership with and support to the Government of Islamic Republic of Afghanistan (GoIRA) – bringing together innovative international best practices and global standards with national and regional acquaintance during four years from 2017 to 2021.
The CPF was prepared following consultations and agreement with the Ministry of Agriculture, Irrigation and Livestock (MAIL), Ministry of Energy and Water (MEW), Ministry of Public Health (MoPH), National Environmental Protection Agency (NEPA), donors and other interested parties and supported by extensive reviews of published materials related to the agricultural sector in Afghanistan (including donor plans and priorities for the relevant period). This is a revision following a major policy change by the GoIRA and the International Community agreed at the Brussels Conference in October 2016; as well as in line with the reform agenda of National Comprehensive Agriculture Development Priority Programme (2016-2020); Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs); Afghanistan National Food Security and Nutrition Agenda (AFSeN); and Citizen Charter Programme (CCP).
