South-South and triangular cooperation is driving a transformative change in agriculture, food security, and rural development across the Global South. Through inclusive partnerships, peer learning, and co-created solutions, countries are working together to tackle shared challenges such as hunger, malnutrition, climate vulnerability, and rural poverty. Evidence continues to demonstrate that South-South and triangular cooperation empowers smallholder farmers, strengthens agri-food systems, and promotes sustainable rural livelihoods by facilitating the exchange of locally grounded innovations and scalable practices. This thematic page offers a gateway to good practices, selected publications, news, and events—from climate-smart farming and nutrition-sensitive policies to youth-led innovation, inclusive value chains, and digital transformation in agriculture.  

South-South and triangular cooperation is a vital enabler of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and Sustainable Development Goals and is increasingly recognized as a strategic modality for achieving resilient, equitable, and sustainable development.
