The FAO Regional Office in Asia and the Pacific is set to convene the 37th session Regional Conference for Asia and the Pacific (APRC) in Colombo, Sri Lanka from 19-22 February 2024. This high-level ministerial event aims to discuss the current state of food and agriculture; agrifood systems transformations; and solutions to assist smallholders and family farmers in the region.  Prior to the conference, a Senior Officers Meeting (SOM) will be held virtually  31 January to 2 February 2024. #APRC37 marks a major international, multilateral milestone in an effort to reform agrifood systems across the Asia-Pacific region, after years of pandemic, climate emergencies, volatile markets and economies that have negatively affected millions of producers, farmers, fishers, pastoralists and consumers.
