Side Event on Best Practices

This year, the purpose is not merely to showcase success, but to accelerate the transfer of solutions that are already working - policies, institutions and investments capable of expanding local value addition, raising producer incomes and reducing poverty.

We are confident that this side event can become a practical exchange of solutions among Member States - connecting experience with need, and proven ideas with opportunities for replication. We warmly encourage all Member States to attend, engage actively and showcase national achievements that can help make commodity value chains more inclusive, resilient and rewarding for producers.
