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.

The present report outlines the main findings and conclusions from an evaluation of Strategic Objective 5 (SO5) Increase the resilience of livelihoods to threats and crises, one of the five Strategic Objectives approved at the 38th session of the FAO Conference in June 2013 as part of the reviewed Strategic Framework. The Strategic Objectives were later complemented with Strategic Programmes providing a four-year results framework and resources for delivering results against each Strategic Objec tive. The SO5 programme (also called ‘Strategic Programme 5’) is articulated through four Outcomes and nine Outputs, which build upon the components of the Hyogo Framework for Action. In this report, the terms ‘strategic objective’ and ‘strategic programme’ are used almost interchangeably.
