Private Sector Engagement:

The Committee for World Food Security (CFS) is the United Nations’ forum for reviewing and following up on policies concerning world food security.

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the International Agri-Food Network (IAFN) have launched a pilot Accelerator Mentorship Programme to support women entrepreneurs in addressing key challenges and constraints they face in their businesses.

The primary purpose of the IAFN is to define and deliver the private sectors’ commitment to addressing global poverty and food security. The Network facilitates liaison among the member organizations and associations to engage with UN agencies and other international organizations at a global level. The IAFN serves as the secretariat for the PSM.

As the most important international standard-setting body in the area of food safety, the Codex Alimentarius plays a crucial role in protecting the health of the consumers enabling trade in agricultural products.
