Resumen
Descripción
This study aims to assist the Government
of Niger in developing a multi-sectoral approach to reducing
the population s vulnerability to food insecurity. The study
reviews food security policies and programs in Niger, and
provides an action plan for strengthening the existing
system and developing an effective safety net strategy. The
study finds that targeting of food aid has been either weak
with significant leakages. Moreover, although the need to
support poor and food insecure households is substantial,
safety nets are small, receive limited funding, and are
designed for emergency food crises. The study recommends to
improve the efficiency and scope of safety net programs in
Niger and to promote effective strategies to improve food
availability and the emergency response systems.
