Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetIncrease the resilience of livelihoods - Revised version 2019The following series of flyers highlights the work being carried out by FAO's Strategic Programmes. This flyer is specifically on "Strategic Programme 5: Increase the Resilience of Livelihoods". After declining steadily for over a decade, global hunger is again on the rise, driven by conflict, climate-related shocks, natural disasters, and economic downturns. Disruptions to the agricultural livelihoods on which 2.5 billion people depend not only cause widespread human suffering, they contribute to instability and vulnerability and impede sustainable development. Boosting the resilience of agricultural livelihoods is key to achieving Zero Hunger – it also represents an effective pathway for advancing peace, ensuring security, and spreading prosperity.

No results found.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.
