The event featured presentations on the key challenges faced by governments, policy makers and practitioners; increasing awareness and knowledge on the role of the Italian Development Cooperation, the International Poverty Reduction Centre in China (IPRCC), the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) in poverty reduction at country, regional and international level; and discussions on the role of South-South and Triangular Cooperation in the implementation of the 2030 Agenda.
