The role of private sector investment in food security is being increasingly emphasized worldwide. The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), which has had a cooperation with FAO since 2002, launched its Private Sector for Food Security Initiative (PSFSI) in 2011 to encourage and advance private sector participation to achieve higher food production through technical assistance, policy dialogue and direct financing. The FAO Investment Centre has supported this Initiative through technical assistance, facilitation of public-private policy dialogue, value chain analysis to guide investment decisions, and the management of the EastAgri and MedAgri information-sharing networks.
