    In preparing an investment project, development strategies and project components are defined and revisited during project formulation through a consultative process that often includes Socio-economic and Production Systems Studies. These studies are conducted to develop an appreciation of the situation in which the intended beneficiaries live, and their perceptions of their problems, needs and priorities. The present study was carried out to support preparation of a poverty alleviation project in Egypt, targeted to help rural villages in the Sohag Governorate reduce poverty by implementing participatory micro-projects under the umbrella of the National Programme for Integrated Rural Development. The project aimed to improve the income and quality of life in rural communities and to improve equitable access to credit for the rural poor, unemployed youth and women. In addition, the project sought to enhance local capacity to programme, appraise, co-finance, implement and manage rural in frastructure projects and services.

    FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022
    Also available in:
    The FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 was endorsed by FAO Council in June 2022. This new strategy replaces the previous strategy from 2017 to better FAO's climate action with the Strategic Framework 2022-2031, and other FAO strategies that have been developed since then. The Strategy was elaborated following an inclusive process of consultation with FAO Members, FAO staff from headquarters and decentralized offices, as well as external partners. It articulates FAO's vision for agrifood systems by 2050, around three main pillars of action: at global and regional level, at country level, and at local level. The Strategy also encourages key guiding principles for action, such as science and innovation, inclusiveness, partnerships, and access to finance.
