Scaling What Works: Partnering with Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO)

In a world of persistent food insecurity and malnutrition, the focus has to be simple: invest in what works—and scale it. In this message, FAO Deputy Director-General Beth Bechdol highlights how the Joint SDG Fund is delivering practical results by linking food production, finance, and social protection. The impact is clear: over 206 million people reached in the past two years, and USD 19 mobilized for every USD 1 invested. This is about moving faster, working smarter across the UN system, and delivering results where they matter most.
