THE BIG PICTURE
In 2016, IFDC steadily progressed toward its mission
to increase global food security and agricultural
sustainability. With a budget of $60 million, the
organization implemented more than 30 projects and
research initiatives in 25 nations. From Bangladesh
to Zambia, IFDC’s technology transfer, training, and
market linkages assisted hundreds of thousands of
agricultural entrepreneurs to better their lives through
improved crop production and incomes.
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals
(SDGs) inform our work and our goals, whether we are
researching breakthrough agricultural technologies and
processes or implementing projects. The following pages
show a few examples of how the SDGs guided our work
in 2016.
