Food Security Information and Knowledge Sharing System (FSIS)
• Capacity Development for institutes in the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry and Other Stakeholders.
• Development and management of relevant and effective national Food Security Information System in support of food security and sustainable agricultural development.
Achievements:
• Networked all Food Security institutions through a National gateway/Portal ==== To strengthen and improve Food Security information generation, management, dissemination, sharing and exchange for policy-makers, senior managers and national stakeholder groups working
Using Web-Based Platform and Mobile Technology.
A national platform to strengthen and improve Food Security
information generation, management, dissemination, sharing
and exchange
Food Security Information System (FSIS) Interfaces
1. Frontend Interface The frontend components provide the information retrieval/browsing functionalities, and are available to any site user.
1. Backend Interface
The backend components provide the data management functionalities that enable system administrators to Add/update/delete data items into the FSIS Network database.

Information Standards and Tools
for Content Management
www.fao.org/aims
To develop and promote interoperability standards
to facilitate the efficient dissemination of content.
interoperability is connecting
people, data and diverse
systems.
Mobilizing and Providing Access to
Agricultural Information
• AGRIS – Providing agricultural research and development institutions with an avenue to publish and disseminate the outputs of their work
• AGORA - Providing access to the world’s scientific literature in agriculture in peer-reviewed learned journals.
• CIARD – Providing commitment to promote the sharing of data, information, and knowledge in a global network of truly public collections of information, based on a Manifesto and a common set of Principles.
Coherence in Information for Agricultural Research for Development (CIARD)
Availability: Information is stored in digital formats, with clearly defined copyright,
managed in one or more institutionally-owned, thematic or other repositories, built
and structured according to accepted international standards.
Accessibility: Information is openly accessible for all users, and easily located via the
Internet from outside the institution using tools and services adopted by the international
community.
Applicability: Research planning, implementation and communication are an inclusive
process bringing together all perspectives and knowledge. Research outputs and
messages are adapted for easy access, use and re-use by different stakeholders,
increasing the public benefits derived from the research.
Partners in the CIARD initiative have made a collective commitment
to promote the sharing of data, information, and knowledge in a
global network of truly public collections of information, based on a
Manifesto and a common set of Principles.
Benefits of Sudan Food Security Information System Connect people who might not otherwise have the opportunity to
interact, either as frequently or at all.
Provide a shared context for people to communicate and share
information, stories, and personal experiences in a way that builds
understanding and insight.
Stimulate learning by serving as a vehicle for authentic
communication, mentoring, coaching, and self-reflection.
Capture and diffuse existing knowledge to help people improve their
practice by providing a forum to identify solutions to common problems
and a process to collect and evaluate best practices.
Introduce collaborative processes to groups and organizations as
well as between organizations to encourage the free flow of ideas and
exchange of information.
Help people organize around purposeful actions that deliver tangible
results.
Generate new knowledge to help people transform their practice to
accommodate changes in needs and technologies.
Benefits of Sudan Food Security System
• Address stakeholders’ needs more effectively,
• Coherence and Synergies in information management,
• Use of agreed standards, methodologies and tools.
• Sharing and Exchange of information and knowledge,
• A collaborative system and effective communication,
• Enhanced technical cooperation and collaboration,
• Reduced cost of operation, Reduced time/cost/effort of
developing national information systems/networks,
