The Global Framework on Water Scarcity in Agriculture (WASAG) is a partnership led by FAO that supports countries in adapting agriculture to mounting water stress. WASAG is currently formulated its multiannual Strategy (2025-2031). Its work is organized around thematic working groups - one of which is the Saline Agriculture Working Group- that produce guidelines, technical briefs, and training to help farmers manage salt-affected soils and water.

Rome Water Dialogue: impactful solutions for water management in achieving food security

Over the past 9 years, NFP (previously under the Food & Business Knowledge Platform) has explored sustainable pathways forward in the food security–stability nexus through the Community of Practice (CoP) on Food Security & Stability. Spurred by the growing recognition that conflict and instability are key drivers of rising global hunger, this CoP was formed to explore how and which food security interventions can contribute to more resilient households, communities, and food systems.
