The Toolkit, managed by the Technical Cooperation Department (TC), is designed to facilitate the formulation of projects under the FAO supported Special Programme for Food Security (SPFS), the Technical Cooperation Programme (TCP) and TeleFood, as well as under Trust Fund arrangements. Its content is organized into five clusters: andrdquoProject Categoriesandrdquo, andrdquoFunding Sourcesandrdquo, andrdquoSPFSandrdquo, andrdquoUseful Information and Referencesandrdquoand andrdquoLessons Learnedandrdquo, each with distinct characteristics. Introductory texts to each subject provide a general context and key issues concerned, with links to further information. For the most common technical disciplines of FAO's mandated areas, the Toolkit provides access to normative frameworks for project formulation and andrdquobest practiceandrdquoproject examples, preparation guidelines for FAO funding sources, supportive material and lessons learned from project implementation. The SPFS, for which there is a specific site, assumes a prominent role in the Kit. The Kit is not seeking to produce standardized and detailed blueprints.
