South–South Cooperation (SSC) and Triangular Cooperation Gateway

Both Cooperation have proven effective in creating jobs, building infrastructure and promoting trade in countries across the global South. They seek to boost a broad framework for collaboration among developing countries SSC and Tr ia ngular and offer a complementary model to the traditional relationship between donors and recipients. A new website was created with an outside third-party contractor in 2022 to create a highly interactive portal for users across the globe. The design was completed, with the content from the current site having already been uploaded and the final testing is currently under way.

Statistical Working System (SWS)

Since 2012 and in line with recommendations from an independent evaluation, FAO took the initiative to develop an internal Statistical Working System (SWS) for the throughput process and a Statistical Data Warehouse (SDW) for output. The overall goal was to significantly improve the efficiency of corporate statistical processes and the quality of statistical outputs, as well as to establish an integrated and harmonized system of data dissemination across all divisions, enabling internal and external users to query, analyse, compare and link statistics across various statistical domains. This year, the SWS left the FAO intranet to become accessible from anywhere, at any time, with a complete redesign of the system's user interface and creation of additional modules, including a campaign manager for statisticians and focal points in contributing organizations/countries.

Food Price and Monitoring Activity (FPMA) tool

The FPMA tool is a major component of FPMA. It provides an advanced technical solution for the dissemination and analysis of price information. The tool was developed in 2010 as part of FAO’s initiatives to address soaring food prices. In 2022, new components were developed for the customization of local questionnaires, and work is currently being done on the first application for the data collection process.
