The Food Security and Agriculture Cluster (FSAC) in Afghanistan was established in 2008, is co-led by WFP and FAO with AfghanAid as NGO in a co-chair role. The FSAC has had a dedicated Cluster Coordinator since October 2010. In 2011, the FSAC underwent a review process which resulted in a TOR being developed which identified the FSAC's main aim to provide an action-oriented forum for bringing together national and international humanitarian partners to improve the timeliness and effectiveness of humanitarian assistance on the lives of crisis-affected population in Afghanistan. The FSAC is also operational at a sub-national level in two regions of Afghanistan, with additional subnational structures currently being established.
