ProjectMyanmar Community Livelihood Assistance Project : Boosting Food Production Capacity to Address Food Security and Resilient Livelihoods in Crisis-Affected Regions/States of Myanmar
Project concept note
2024Also available in:
No results found.This project proposes a conflict-sensitive, integrated programme aimed at building resilience in Myanmar’s most affected and vulnerable communities facing multiple shocks, including conflict, climate risks, and economic crises. The programme will focus on Chin, Kayah, Kayin, Rakhine, and Sagaing states, where food security and agricultural livelihoods are most severely impacted. Grounded in participatory context analysis, interventions will be designed to address the specific vulnerabilities and needs of displaced, returnee, and host populations. FAO’s efforts will include rehabilitating the agricultural sector through both short- and long-term assistance, utilizing a Cash Plus modality that combines cash transfers with agricultural inputs and technical support. By promoting community-based recovery, disaster risk management, and sustainable agricultural practices, the programme seeks to reduce dependency on humanitarian aid and foster long-term development and peace. Through this integrated approach across the Humanitarian-Development-Peace Nexus, FAO aims to improve food security, enhance social cohesion, and increase resilience to multiple shocks, ultimately contributing to the recovery and stability of conflict-affected communities. -
