[Agricultural Fisheries and Livestock Newspaper=Reporter Park Yu-shin] The Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs held a 'Symposium on Public-Private Cooperation for International Agricultural Cooperation (ODA) Projects' on the 25th at the Seoul Hotel, The Plaza, with the theme of 'Strengthening Public-Private Cooperation in International Agricultural Cooperation and Directions for Promoting Practical ODA.' Following the inauguration of the Lee Jae-myung government, in line with the practical diplomacy policy, ODA projects are transitioning from humanitarian aid to practical ODA that strengthens the entire value chain and public-private cooperation. In response, the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs also plans to actively promote a new international agricultural cooperation paradigm, including support for the overseas expansion of domestic agricultural companies, strengthening cooperation with international organizations, and designing projects based on water resource needs.
