Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetHigh-profileSouth Sudan | Humanitarian Response Plan 2020 2020
Also available in:
No results found.Almost half the population of South Sudan are currently suffering from severe acute food insecurity immediately after the harvest period, a situation driven by conflict related livelihood disruptions, climatic shocks, displacement, the economic crisis and prolonged dry spells at critical stages of crop growth.The potential arrival of the desert locust, which is currently ravaging the Horn of Africa in the worst infestation in 25 years, could further threaten the food security of the country. The South Sudan 2020 Humanitarian Response Plan highlights calls for those in urgent need of assistance to be reached before their circumstances deteriorate further, threatening the situation particularly in areas likely to receive returnees, where access is difficult, or where harvests are predicted to be poor. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetHigh-profileThe Sudan: Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan 2024 2024
Also available in:
No results found.With conflict raging since April 2023, the Sudan has rapidly become the world’s largest internal displacement crisis. Humanitarian needs are immense and rising. One in two people require immediate assistance, and more than one in three are acutely food insecure. Intense conflict and continued economic decline have constrained agricultural production, limiting access to food nationwide. Restoring crop and livestock production – a livelihood for 2/3 of the population – is a top humanitarian priority. This document provides an overview of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations' (FAO) component of the 2024 Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan for the Sudan. FAO requires USD 104.1 million to assist 9 million people. -

BookletCorporate general interestRural youth employment and agri-food systems in Uganda
A rapid context analysis
2019Also available in:
No results found.Almost 88 percent of the world’s 1.2 billion youth live in developing countries. Globally, young people account for approximately 24 percent of the working poor. Although the world’s youth population is expected to grow, employment and entrepreneurial opportunities for young women and men remain limited – particularly for those living in economically stagnant rural areas of developing countries. Hence, creating more productive and beneficial jobs for the rural youth is particularly urgent. The FAO Integrated Country Approach (ICA) for boosting decent jobs for youth in the agri-food system project, currently implemented in Senegal, Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya and Guatemala, aims to address this challenge by creating more and better employment opportunities for youth in rural areas and agri-food systems. To do so, ICA combines different interventions, such as capacity development, institutional support, knowledge generation and partnership creation. This context analysis provides an overview of Uganda, describing youth employment challenges, policies and programmes in place as well as FAO’s priorities on decent rural youth employment. Fianlly, it also analyses the 14 to 17 age cohort involvement in the agricultural sector and country’s migration and refugee governance. -
BookletCorporate general interestCollective tenure rights: Realizing the potential for REDD+ and sustainable development
Information brief
2019Also available in:
No results found.The security of tenure rights is a fundamental factor in positive outcomes for forests, in reducing deforestation and forest degradation within the larger context of sustainable development. This Information Brief focuses on the key contribution of collective tenure rights towards mitigating climate change, paying particular attention to the links with national strategies to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD+) and nationally determined contributions (NDCs). The brief summarizes some of the key rationales for prioritizing the securing of collective tenure rights in the context of REDD+ and sustainable development. The paper presents three examples, from Nepal, Peru and the United Republic of Tanzania, to showcase the positive impact of secure collective tenure rights and proposes a range of measures that countries can take to accelerate progress towards collective tenure rights recognition. -
