Opis

FAO developed an Integrated Country Approach (ICA) for promoting decent rural employment. The approach leverages a set of FAO's core functions, namely: policy and strategy advice, technical support and capacity development, knowledge generation, partnerships, as well as advocacy and communication. In depth scoping exercises are conducted in the inception phase of the Programme to better tailor the intervention to country demands and capacity development needs. The entire approach is geared towards sustainable policy change and places emphasis on strengthening the capacities of national institutions responsible for agriculture and labour to promote decent rural employment, including through private-public partnerships and multi-stakeholder mechanisms. Also, the approach facilitates the collaboration among FAO and other UN Agencies, such as ILO or UNIDO. Gender equality and environmental sustainability are always mainstreamed as cross-cutting issues.
