The article highlights FAO’s efforts to enhance capacities for developing and implementing effective trade and market-related agricultural policies. Through e-learning courses such as Trade, Food Security and Nutrition (TFSN) and Agriculture in International Trade Agreements (AITA), FAO aims to deepen understanding of the complex linkages between trade, food security, and nutrition. The initiative supports policymakers and stakeholders in balancing national development goals with international trade commitments. Delivered in multiple languages and accessible formats, the training emphasizes evidence-based policy-making and the integration of nutrition objectives into trade frameworks to foster sustainable agrifood systems.
