DocumentZimbabwe: Transitioning Emergency into Rehabilitation and Development. Plan of Action 2010-2015 2015
Also available in:
No results found.As part of its Strategic Framework 2010-2019, FAO aims to improve linkages and transitions between emergency, rehabilitation and development. The FAO Emergency Operations and Rehabilitation Division (TCEO) uses the Plan of Action (PoA) as a tool to promote more integrated planning and coordination and to guide a smooth transition from relief to development. The PoA describes the FAO strategy in Zimbabwe for “bridging” emergency activities with more medium and long-term development programmes ove r the next five years. This document maps out FAO support to the Government of Zimbabwe (GoZ) and other main stakeholders for the revitalization of the agricultural sector in Zimbabwe. It proposes to align FAO assistance and support with government priorities and strategies. Through implementing the PoA, FAO also intends to reinforce collaboration and enable more integrated planning between the FAO emergency unit and regular country programme, as well as other FAO technical units, throughout the transition period. The PoA was designed using a participatory approach involving Government, non-governmental organization (NGO) partners, civil society - including producer organizations, donors and various FAO units from the Southern Africa sub-regional office and headquarters. It is built around three interrelated Strategic Focus Areas (SFAs) contributing to Outcome 6 of the Zimbabwe United Nations Development Assistance Framework (ZUNDAF) 2007-2011 - improved food security and sustain able management of natural resources and the environment. -

BookletFAO’s work on agricultural innovation
Sowing the seeds of transformation to achieve the SDGs
2018Also available in:
No results found.This brochure presents FAO ’s work on agricultural innovation. FAO advocates a shift from interventions focusing on single components of agricultural innovation towards a system-approach aimed at strengthening institutions and stakeholders’ networks that better respond to the needs of smallholder farmers. Agricultural innovation is the process whereby individuals or organizations bring new or existing products, processes or ways of organization into use for the first time in a specific context in order to increase effectiveness, competitiveness, resilience to shocks or environmental sustainability and thereby contribute to food security and nutrition, economic development or sustainable natural resource management. Innovation is central to lifting family farmers out of poverty, tackling unemployment for youth and rural women, and helping the world to achieve food security and the Sustainable Development Goals.
