Focal Points and Strategic Resource Persons
The network is composed of national Focal Points, who are technical representatives from ministries and/or public institutions responsible for market monitoring and/or agricultural statistics across the 13 CIHEAM member countries. Their role is to ensure a technical liaison between the MED-Amin Secretariat and their respective administrations, by sharing data and contributing to the visibility of the network.
They take part in the network’s annual meetings to review developments in cereal markets and food security issues at both national and international levels, work on targeted topics with the support of international experts, and exchange information and methodologies. These meetings also provide an opportunity to address technical matters relating to the network’s operation and to make collective decisions.
Since 2020, Strategic Resource Persons have been appointed in each member country to strengthen the network’s political dimension, particularly by ensuring its alignment with national priorities, and to foster regular strategic dialogue among member countries.
