How ever\, the technology holds immense potential for better food security pla nning and progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals\, notably Goa l 2: Zero Hunger.\n\nUNCTAD in collaboration with AIR CAS\, FAREI and ANSO is organizing a regional workshop to bring together technicians\, policym akers and other stakeholders from beneficiary developing countries to rece ive training to use the CropWatch system.

The intended outcome of the training and the CropWatch p rogramme is to enable developing countries to improve food security throug h advanced crop monitoring.
