- Actively engaging with international funding institutions and donor governments to secure grants and loans for critical projects that enhance agricultural productivity, infrastructure, and rural livelihoods.
- Maintaining a robust monitoring and evaluation system to ensure the effective and efficient implementation of FAPs, thereby ensuring transparency and accountability.
Through collaborative partnerships and knowledge-sharing, FASPO is committed to transforming the lives of ARBs, empowering them, and forging a more inclusive and prosperous future for the country’s agrarian reform.
