Synopsis (short abstract) The Guidance document aims to assist FAO Members in incorporating decent rural employment interventions across different agricultural sub-sectors. It is organized into three main sections that answer respectively to the questions: "Why", "When" and "How" to integrate DRE. In particular, the section on “How to incorporate DRE considerations” outlines and analyzes the following 4 strategic planning phases: Phase 1: Conducting the problem and stakeholder analysis – Applying a DRE lens; Phase 2: Defining desired impacts and beneficiaries – Prioritizing DRE; Phase 3: Developing the result chain and the strategies and programmes to achieve the results - Developing a DRE-inclusive results chain; Phase 4: Developing the M&E system with DRE-inclusive indicators. The document provides overall guidance in the main text, which is complemented with boxes, figures, tables and annexes containing examples, detailed technical advice, tips and checklists.

    Project
    Boosting Decent Rural Employment through the Implementation of the Integrated Country Approach and Dimitra Clubs - FMM/GLO/122/MUL 2021
    Also available in:
    No results found.
    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.
