The role of the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO).

Coordination: The FAO is represented in the different coordination mechanisms established by UNMAS, governments, donors and other partners at the global and national levels, such as the MACCs, IACG-MA, and SCMA. 

Programme management and project implementation: The FAO is involved in mine action where its agricultural relief and rehabilitation efforts are affected by landmines and ERW. In addition, FAO may assist in the definition of criteria for the selection of priority clearance sites and post-clearance cultivation areas.
