An IICA committed to agrifood system transformation
The adjusted institutional strategy provides an invitation to join IICA in its efforts to strengthen sustainable agrifood systems in the Americas through technical cooperation of excellence.
The commitment undertaken up to 2026 is to create a more relevant, productive and integrated IICA, which will focus its capacities by way of seven technical cooperation programs and 35 delegations in our Member States, while also building on its close collaboration with the agrifood sector of the Americas and establishing bridges for collective dialogue and action.
