FAO launches training course on food security monitoring system at NCSCM

AMMAN — The Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO), in cooperation with the National Centre for Security and Crisis Management (NCSCM), launched a training course to build the capacity of 25 selected employees from the NCSCM, Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Digital Economy and Entrepreneurship, Ministry of Industry, Trade and Supply and the Jordan Customs department on the food security control system in Jordan.

This training course, which started on Monday at the centre, and will end on Thursday, comes within the framework of the activities of the Technical Cooperation Programme (TCP) between FAO and the NCSCM under the "Establishing a Food Security Monitoring and Reporting Dashboard for Jordan" project, according to a FAO statement.

The project contributes to promoting sustainable and inclusive economic growth, and investing in human resources and social development by strengthening data, evidence and analytics to provide accurate recommendations to decision-makers.
