Our Mission
The Global Agriculture and Food Security Program (GAFSP) is the only multilateral partnership for food and nutrition security financing, with USD $2.5 billion portfolio. With over 300 projects in the world’s poorest countries, the program has reached 20 million people. GAFSP was launched by the G20 in the wake of the 2007–08 food price crisis and aims to foster sustainable and resilient agriculture and food systems in the world’s most vulnerable countries. GAFSP provides financial and technical resources— investment grants, technical assistance, concessional finance, and advisory services—to demand driven projects along the food chain, from farm to table.
