Synopsis (short abstract) The Republic of Korea funded FAO's project OSRO/CVI/054/ROK entitled “Safeguarding food security and livelihoods of the most vulnerable populations in Cabo Verde” for USD 100 000. The project was implemented from 19 May 2023 to 31 December 2023. The project's objective was to safeguard the food security and livelihoods of the most vulnerable people on the islands of Santo Antão and Santiago. FAO distributed 615 food baskets to 615 food-insecure households, 87 percent of which were headed by women. To achieve this, 51 households, including 38 small-scale producers and 13 operators of agricultural warehouses, provided fresh produce to increase food basket nutritional value and boost local supply networks. Households were able to cover their food needs for two months, enabling them to consume three meals a day.
