After two successful years of the FAO-IAFN SME Mentorship Accelerator Programme, we are thrilled to share that the third cohort of the programme will be launched during the Science and Innovation Forum at the World Food Forum in Rome, Italy on October 17, 2024. This exciting event will feature speakers from FAO and IAFN, alongside mentees from previous cohorts and a dedicated mentor. Together, they will share inspiring stories of success and discuss the expectations for the new cohort, which will run for nine months from October 2024 to June 2025.
