    Strategic Work of FAO to Increase the Resilience of Livelihoods 2017
    Together with its partners, FAO works to increase the resilience of agricultural livelihoods at risk of disasters and crises. People with resilient livelihoods are better able to withstand damage, recover and adapt when disasters cannot be avoided. The increasing frequency and intensity of disasters caused by climate change reinforces the urgency to build the resilience of agricultural livelihoods of vulnerable communities.

    Management welcomes the Evaluation of FAO’s contribution to Strategic Objective 5 – Increase the resilience of livelihoods to threats and crises. It provides a comprehensive analysis of the way FAO’s resilience agenda has successfully strengthened the development positioning of the Organization’s work in preparation for and response to crises. This agenda broadens the services FAO offers, moving more towards encompassing resilience programming, bridging between short-term emergency response and longer-term risk reduction and management. As highlighted by the Evaluation, FAO is an Organization which primarily supports longer-term agricultural development but remains present at times of disasters and crises to provide emergency assistance with a resilience perspective. The report captures well the essence of SO5, which encompasses development work, that takes years of policy and capacity development support (e.g. for early warning systems or disaster risk reduction and preparedness), as well as a response component, framed and contained within the longer-term development perspective.
