Descripción
In recent years, FAO has implemented a number of projects to bolster decent rural employment (DRE) and to implement Dimitra Clubs (DCs) in many countries, thanks to funding provided by the Flexible Multi Partner Mechanism (FMM). Projects focusing on increasing DRE for youth in the agri food systems of targeted countries have utilized FAO’s Integrated Country Approach (ICA), which includes advocacy and communication activities, the provision of policy and strategy advice, technical support and capacity development, the generation of knowledge and the development of partnerships. Other projects have facilitated the implementation of DCs. These clubs take a bottom up, community driven approach to development by building the capacities of rural populations, particularly women, through the dissemination of information and the exchange of experiences. The goal of the DCs is to amplify the voices of rural women, so that their voices are heard at national and international level. In order to maintain and expand upon the significant results achieved by previous projects, this project was formulated to ensure continued coordination and technical support to DRE and DC activities, to mobilize further resources and to create partnerships for subsequent projects in these areas.
