To inform a proposal for the establishment of a global multistakeholder partnership on bioeconomy for sustainable food and agriculture, FAO is carrying out inclusive and geographically representative consultations with a wide range of stakeholders between March and April 2025. The aim is to define the objectives and potential focus areas for a global multistakeholder partnership and map the various stakeholders in the global bioeconomy landscape.
This online, written consultation is open to all stakeholders active or interested in the bioeconomy landscape. It will run in parallel with virtual regional consultations across all FAO regions (Africa, Asia and the Pacific, Europe and Central Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean, Near East and North Africa, and North America).
You are warmly invited to help identify gaps and opportunities that a partnership could address and leverage, alongside the types of services a partnership could offer. Inputs received across all consultations will help define the partnership’s objectives and potential focus areas, forming an integral part of the proposal for the establishment of a global multistakeholder bioeconomy partnership. Kindly note that the proposal will be subject to discussion among FAO Members before a decision is made regarding its actual establishment.
