| dc.description | From 2017 until 2023, the United Nations Rome-based Agencies (RBA) – the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) and the World Food Programme (WFP) – implemented a joint initiative funded by the Government of Canada aimed at strengthening resilience for food security and nutrition, in Somalia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the Republic of Niger. This joint initiative aimed to bridge humanitarian and development objectives and meet immediate food needs while sustainably increasing food security in regions affected by protracted and recurrent crises, with a specific focus on vulnerable women and children. In Somalia, the joint RBA initiative targeted the same beneficiaries for the entire project’s duration with the intention of enhancing nutritious food availability and access as well as increasing income through safety nets, whilst strengthening the capacity of women, communities and local authorities in decision-making and management of natural resources. This good practice presents the RBA initiative in Somalia and its resilience-building layering and sequencing model of multisectoral interventions, built around traditional and alternative livelihood pathways, including kitchen and market gardens, beekeeping husbandry, Prosopis juliflora processing into alternative livestock feed and charcoal as well as natural resource management. | |
