Strategies and Policies

The 13th Annual Meeting of the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) Working Group on Agriculture (WGA) held in Da Nang in July 2016 acknowledged the need for developing a strategy and action plan for promoting safe and environment-friendly agro-based value chains in the GMS. An outline of the strategy and action plan was submitted for notation at the 21st GMS Ministerial Meeting in December 2016. In October 2016, the WGA established the Strategy Drafting Committee responsible for preparing the strategy and action plan through national and regional consultations.
