Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBuilding sustainable capacity to manage impacts between humans and wildlife for different stakeholder groups 2023
Also available in:
No results found.The case study comes from the north-western part of Zimbabwe, the Hurungwe district of Mashonaland West province, where local communities experience high levels of human-wildlife conflict. The area is also vulnerable to the transmission of Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) from the African buffalo to cattle, which can devastate farmers' livelihoods, as they are often left unable to trade the meat. In 2019, the Food and Agricultural Organisation of the United Nations (FAO) initiated an emergency development project, funded by the Government of Japan, in collaboration with a wide range of partners. The project piloted innovative human-wildlife conflict prevention and mitigation strategies, alternative livelihood options and livestock disease management approaches. The project set up leadership forums in the committees, as a means to develop targeted strategies to reduce human-wildlife conflict. FAO also developed and launched a mobile application, called ema-i, to improve animal disease field data collection and reporting, and enhance surveillance to respond to incidents, particularly in areas with limited internet access. -

No results found.A Regional Rapid Gender Analysis (RGA) is conducted with a special focus on Iraq and the Sudan as case studies to provide information about the different needs, capacities and coping strategies of women, men, boys and girls in a crisis. Rapid Gender Analysis is built up progressively: using a range of primary and secondary information to understand gender roles and relations and how they may change during a crisis. It provides practical programming and operational recommendations to meet the different needs of women, men, boys and girls and to ensure we ‘do no harm’. Rapid gender analysis uses the tools and approaches of gender analysis fameworks and adapts them to the shorter time-frames, rapidly changing contexts, and insecure environments that often characterise humanitarian interventions, to ensure that data is available to inform humanitarian response efforts and contributing to recovery and preparedness efforts. -
