Sustainable development
FDOV helps to achieve the following sustainable development goals in developing countries:
- SDG 2: ending hunger
- SDG 8: decent jobs and economic growth
- SDG 17: partnerships for the goals.
To reach these goals, it is necessary to work together. That is why FDOV works with public-private partnerships (PPPs) between government, businesses, NGOs and/or knowledge centres.
