FPIC, FAO Definition
https://www.fao.org/indigenous-peoples/our-pillars/fpic/en/
Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) is a specific right granted to Indigenous Peoples recognised in the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP), which aligns with their universal right to self-determination. FPIC allows Indigenous Peoples to provide or withhold/ withdraw consent, at any point, regarding projects impacting their territories. FPIC allows Indigenous Peoples to engage in negotiations to shape the design, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of projects. FAO's Policy on Indigenous Peoples aligns with the UN and the international legal framework, prioritising the inclusion and promotion of Indigenous Peoples' issues in its work. The FAO Policy upholds core principles such as self-determined development, respect for Indigenous Peoples' knowledge, cultures and traditional practices and FPIC. The Indigenous Peoples Unit (PSUI) has the corporate responsibility for implementing the FAO Policy and the FAO manual on FPIC providing technical support to other units and projects.

Report: TRADE REFORMS AND FOOD SECURITY, Conceptualizing the Linkages
https://www.fao.org/4/Y4671E/y4671e00.htm
The purpose of this publication is to inform the research that underpins policy analysis, and the negotiations and/or prescriptions that follow, such that these enhance, rather than worsen, the food security status of poor countries. It is intended to be complementary to the existing literature that explores the linkages between trade liberalization, economic openness and poverty, but which does not explicitly explore the implications for food security.
The publication contributes to understanding these relationships by:

It is intended to be complementary to the existing literature that explores the linkages between trade liberalization, economic openness and poverty, but which does not explicitly explore the implications for food security.
The publication contributes to understanding these relationships by:
critically reviewing what is known from the existing literature and other resources so as to facilitate better targeted country-level research and analysis of trade and food security developments;
presenting a conceptual framework for understanding how trade liberalization and related economic reforms can impact upon national and household-level food security;
providing an operational framework for assessing the outcome of past policies, and predicting the consequences of future initiatives, on national and household food security;
proposing an agenda for research.
Report, Timber traceability – A management tool for governments
https://www.fao.org/3/cb8909en/cb8909en.pdf
There are growing demands for countries to develop national timber traceability systems. These demands range from a country’s own needs to track timber and collect associated revenues consistently, to international demands for due diligence regarding the legality of the timber for imports, and in some cases where a country has entered into a Voluntary Partnership Agreement (VPA) with the EU. In response, many countries have made considerable efforts to develop national systems which track timber flow from producer through processing, to the point of sale, and there are different approaches and tools available for doing this. This report aims to document lessons and best practices in the planning of government-led timber traceability systems in Latin America to provide a reference for government officials in other countries who are tasked with developing and implementing similar systems. It also seeks to help other audiences recognize that traceability is global trend and is becoming a new norm for conducting business and trade in international wood markets.
