The FAO Resilience Programme for West Africa and the Sahel covers 18 countries and outlines a framework of interventions tailored to the specificities of to the region and its challenges, in order to provide coordinated assistance focused on the needs of populations and countries.

    In November 2017, the sociopolitical crisis in Cameroon’s North-West and South-West regions escalated into armed conflict between government forces and separatist groups. This led to widespread insecurity, displacement, and economic disruption. Many people fled to Nigeria or sought refuge in forests and nearby towns. Schools and clinics were shut down, and agricultural activities were severely affected, with farmers unable to cultivate land and crops destroyed. Although the situation has stabilized somewhat after six years, the crisis continues to have a significant impact on the region’s economy, education, and healthcare systems.

    In Burkina Faso, persistent insecurity, climate change and economic constraints are directly affecting the livelihoods and living conditions of millions of people. This is forcing populations, particularly internally displaced people, to adopt negative coping mechanisms. It is therefore urgent to provide agricultural assistance to the most vulnerable households to enable them to quickly produce food to meet their basic needs and strengthen their resilience.
