Yet, FACS are in crisis and need to be radically transformed to become sustainable. UNDP, building on its experience, has for the first time consolidated its FACS support and vision into this Strategy. UNDP´s Vision for FACS 2030 is, through partnerships, to transform food and agricultural commodity systems into resilient; equitable; healthy, inclusive; environmentally, socially, and economically sustainable systems. Working on FACS will contribute to not only recovery from the COVID-19 crisis, by creating sustainable and resilient livelihoods for many along the FAC supply chains, but also to preventing further zoonoses from emerging in the future.

This will require a change in the current paradigm of agricultural production focusing on maximizing productivity to a new paradigm based on diversified agroecological systems which work simultaneously on achieving economic, environmental, social, and health outcomes, with smallholders as a key part of the solution in their role as the engine of economic development. A FACS practice has been established within UNDP´s Nature, Climate and Energy team, which is tasked to support UNDP Country Offices with FACS related challenges in a way that is aligned with UNDP´s FACS strategy. A UNDP´s FACS team supports the implementation of UNDP´s FACS strategy. Its global targets, objectives, and delivery strategies are based on inclusive and sustainable growth and development - combining governments and markets in agriculture through public-private partnerships and democratic dialogue processes.

The FACS team leads several global initiatives, including supporting the World Bank with the implementation of the Food Systems, Land Use and Restoration (FOLUR) Impact Program (IP), financed under GEF-7. The Programme is designed to promote sustainable integrated landscapes and efficient food value chains at scale. The FOLUR IP aims to encourage transformation to more environmentally sustainable production practices and more resilient landscapes. The FOLUR IP has two main elements - a Global Knowledge to Action Platform and 27 Country Projects (CPs) - designed to tackle the dual challenges of achieving a global food system built on sustainable land use practices and productive, resilient landscapes, using both top-down and bottom-up strategies.

The FACS team’s support to FOLUR is focused on the global platform with the objective of contributing to transformational shifts in the use of environmentally sustainable practices and policies for priority global value chains. The FACS team also works in close collaboration with various governments notably the Government of Sweden and the State Secretariat for Economic Affairs of Switzerland (SECO). To support project implementation across its portfolio, the FACS team notably runs a community of practice (FACS Community). The FACS Community is an impartial space for its registered members to share experiences, collaborate digitally, learn, and develop capacities on essential practices that are required to change systems through collaborative action and increase the effectiveness and impact of sustainability efforts in Food and Agricultural Commodity Systems.

To provide guidance and technical advice on inter-agency cooperation, project implementation, and team stewardship and lead on organizational learning, knowledge management, and project governance strengthening of various initiatives part of its portfolio, the FACS team is recruiting a Senior Knowledge, Learning and Impact Advisor. Duties and Responsibilities The Senior Knowledge, Learning and Impact Advisor will carry out the following duties: Strategic guidance on portfolio development, organizational learning, management, and cooperation Serve on the Stewardship Team (ST) to provide advice and guidance on strategy, integrated offer, team organizational effectiveness, new partnerships, and initiatives development.
