Global collaboration can often provide great benefits, but unfortunately does not always happen. This week we share a short video from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations highlighting cooperation between countries to improve rice value chains. We encourage you to watch the linked video and utilize the discussion points to guide your conversations with others around the globe.

- While it mentions the Global South do you believe collaboration is needed or useful for countries not considered part of the Global South? Explain your thoughts.
- Does your home country collaborate and share agriculture information with other countries?
- Do you think your home country could benefit from greater collaboration and sharing of information? Why or why not?
