The Pacific Farmer Organisations will convene this Thursday, 1st May, a key stakeholder consultation meeting, bringing together partners, institutions, and representatives from across the agriculture sector to strengthen collaboration and align priorities for farmer-led development in the Pacific.
Themed ‘Transforming Pacific Food Systems Together’, the meeting will serve as an important platform to share updates on PFO’s ongoing programmes, exchange insights, and gather feedback from stakeholders to help guide future planning and implementation. Discussions will focus on enhancing partnerships, improving programme delivery, and ensuring that initiatives remain responsive to the needs of farmers across the region.
Participants will include representatives from government agencies, development partners, research institutions, and private sector organisations, reflecting the multi-stakeholder approach required to address current challenges in agriculture and food systems.
Key areas of discussion are expected to include:
- Progress and impact of current PFO programmes
- Opportunities for collaboration and resource mobilization
- Strengthening farmer organisations and institutional capacity
- Aligning regional efforts to support food security and sustainable livelihoods
The consultation underscores PFO’s commitment to inclusive, participatory engagement, ensuring that farmer voices remain central in shaping agricultural development across the Pacific.
Outcomes from the meeting will contribute to strengthening coordination among stakeholders and supporting more effective, sustainable interventions that benefit farming communities.
PFO looks forward to welcoming all participants and fostering meaningful dialogue that will advance shared goals for resilient and thriving Pacific food systems.
