Descripción

With declining resources for humanitarian and development efforts, resilience has emerged as a priority in development programming, as it offers cost-effective means to address both immediate and long-term needs. Evidence shows that resilience frameworks are most effective when interventions are tailored to local contexts and embedded in multi-year strategies that reduce vulnerabilities while responding to urgent needs. This study analyses agrifood system interventions implemented by FAO in 2022 and 2023 in Nigeria, Afghanistan and South Sudan. Using spatial resilience typologies that classify subnational areas by levels of persistent acute food insecurity, macronutrient availability, and connectivity, the analysis examines both the distribution of interventions and their combinations within projects and across geographic areas.
