Food And Agriculture Organization Of The United Nations (FAO) Liaison Office In Brussels: World Food Day

The Liaison Office with the European Union and Belgium in Brussels (LOB) follows the work of the European institutions (Commission, Parliament, Council, European Economic and Social Committee, Committee of the Regions) and other European Union bodies in areas of relevance to FAO’s policies and programs. It provides policy advice, mobilizes resources, and fosters the exchange of information with FAO in priority areas, including agriculture, food security, and nutrition aid, biodiversity, natural resources, consumer protection, fishery, and forestry.

World Food Day 2020 marked the 75th anniversary of FAO in an exceptional moment as countries around the world deal with the widespread effects of the global COVID-19 pandemic.
