No results found.Over the past decade, economic damages resulting from natural hazards have amounted to USD 1.5 trillion caused by geophysical hazards such as earthquakes, tsunamis and landslides, as well as hydro-meteorological hazards, including storms, floods, droughts and wild fires. Climate-related disasters, in particular, are increasing worldwide and expected to intensify with climate change. They disproportionately affect food insecure, poor people – over 75 percent of whom derive their livelihoods from agriculture. Agricultural livelihoods can only be protected from multiple hazards if adequate disaster risk reduction and management efforts are strengthened within and across sectors, anchored in the context-specific needs of local livelihoods systems. -

No results found.This report presents analysis and findings from a qualitative research case study conducted in October 2012 in Zimbabwe, the third of a sixcountry study of the economic impact of cash transfer programmes in sub-Saharan Africa. The Harmonised Social Cash Transfer (HSCT) was introduced in 2011 by the Ministry of Labour and Social Services (MoLSS) to “strengthen purchasing power of 55 000 ultra-poor households who are labour constrained through cash transfer”. During phase 1 of the programme (from 2011 to 2012) 10 districts were targeted for HSCT coverage. In total, 236 458 households were surveyed and 18 637 households were identified as labour constrained and food poor.
