FAO has established solid cooperation with the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) on many fronts, including the realization of joint events, the delivery of technical inputs to opinions, and active participation in different sessions and activities.

FAO Brussels supports the work of the EESC by ensuring the provision of FAO’s technical expertise and input to its different sections.

A particularly active partnership exists with the Natural Resources Section (NAT) that had dedicated the year 2021 to agrifood systems transformation. Other sections, such as REX (External Relations) and ENV (Environment), have also received contributions from FAO experts in their areas of work.

FAO Brussels has established a solid partnership with the European Committee of the Regions' (CoR) Natural Resources Commission (NAT). The collaboration with the CoR includes jointly organizing events, providing FAO technical input to opinions, and participating in CoR plenary sessions and working groups.
