    Support Livelihood Restoration to the Disaster Affected Communities in Kagera Region of Tanzania - TCP/URT/3606 2020
    Also available in:
    No results found.

    Kagera Region of the United Republic of Tanzania is predominantly rural, completely landlocked and remote from the coast and capital, and largely dependent on agriculture. Agricultural production engages about 75 percent of the regional population in the production of food and cash crops. The region has been affected by prolonged drought, and the effects of the severe earthquake that took place in September 2016 has compounded the risk of food shortages and seed scarcity. It is among the regions in the country with the highest rates of malnutrition among women and children below five years of age, with a reported stunting level of over 50 percent. The overall objective of the project was to provide technical support to smallholder producers (farmers, livestock keepers and fisher folk) affected by the earthquake and drought disaster, to improve food security, nutrition and the quality of life of communities in five districts of Kagera Region.
