A new three-year agreement with the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations
The Director of the Brussels Liaison Office of the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO) in Brussels, Rodrigo de Lapuerta, and the Rector of the University of Liège, Pierre Wolper, have renewed the three-year partnership agreement between the two institutions, an agreement first signed in October 2017. This agreement followed on from the bilateral collaborations initiated since 2016 by the FAO with the Faculty of Gembloux Agro-Bio Tech.
During the first three years of their partnership, the University of Liège and the FAO worked together throughout the African continent on zoonoses, the link between climate change and migration, rural youth, agriculture, sustainable energy, deforestation, pests and diseases, and food security. FAO also shared field experiences with the students enabling them to work on antimicrobial resistance, forest management and zoonotic diseases.
Through these partnerships with higher education and scientific research actors, FAO continues its work to reduce hunger and malnutrition in the world.
