Resumen
Descripción
Limited access to water represents one of the most pressing problems for poor Palestinian farmers and herders in the West Bank. FAO and the Palestinian Ministry of Agriculture applied a dual-track approach to address the issue and promote rural employment. First, by implementing a “cash transfer” modality, cistern owners were able to participate in the construction and rehabilitation of their own structures. Hence, the project provided short-term employment opportunities through public works sch emes.
