ProjectUpdating the Sustainable Agricultural Development Strategy 2030 and Preparing a Medium-Term Plan of Action - TCP/EGY/3701 2021
Also available in:
No results found.There is broad consensus in Egypt that, despite its achievements, the Sustainable Agricultural Development Strategy ( 2030 needs to be reviewed in a number of areas As an agricultural and rural development strategy aiming to address existing and future challenges, there is a need for the SADS to go beyond a sectoral scope, as interlinkages between agriculture, water, land use, climate change, agro industry, input supply, food security and nutrition are key to determining the outcomes of the overall development process The environment, in particular water, land and climate change, is a sector closely considered within the SADS 2030 The recently developed National Water Resource Plan for Egypt provides an opportunity to endow the SADS 2030 with a well rounded vision and to assesses agricultural development needs with water management provisions In addition, it was agreed that linking agricultural and value chain development might provide a framework for developing more resilient agriculture and rural non farm sectors able to generate better jobs, reduce rural poverty and vulnerability and enhance food security At the outset of the project, specific focus was needed upon the favouring the participation of smallholders in modern value chains, ensuring a smooth exit out of the agricultural sector and employment opportunities in other sectors primarily agrifood processing and distribution for those unable to continue working in agriculture. -
ProjectSupporting Developing Countries to Integrate their Agricultural Sectors into National Adaptation Plans - UNFA/GLO/616/UND 2021
Also available in:
No results found.The project successfully fostered climate change adaptation informed planning and budgeting in the agriculture sectors in the 11 target countries. This was achieved by strengthening the capacities of around 5 200 national and sectoral decision makers, representing over 120 institutions across the target countries, in identifying and appraising adaptation options, using tools such as multicriteria assessment, Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA), impact evaluation, and vulnerability and risk assessment, to facilitate evidence based decision making in their National Adaptation Plans (NAPs) process. Strategic capacities to advance adaptation planning and implementation were also reinforced, including on gender mainstreaming, climate finance, mobilization, and monitoring and evaluation of adaptation. In this context, a significant number of guidance materials were developed for policy makers and practitioners, related to different aspects of adaptation planning in agriculture. The project also helped countries to create collaborations with ongoing projects, and unlock innovative sources of climate finance that could support adaptation in their agriculture sectors. In addition, many partnerships and alliances were built with global research organizations, regional expert centres, national universities and civil society organizations. -
ProjectMalawi 2020 National Census of Agriculture and Livestock (NACA) Planning Phase Technical Support - TCP/MLW/3802 2024
Also available in:
No results found.The National Census of Agriculture and Livestock (NACA) is a national survey designed to be conducted every 10 years, the most recent of which was conducted in 2006-2007. The overall objective of the NACA is to provide data for evidence-based decision-making and improved capacity for planning agriculture and rural development. Specifically, the NACA provides data on food and agricultural production required for monitoring food security and estimating agricultural and development programmes, in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and the Malawi Growth and Development Strategy III (2017-2022). In this context and given the importance of this activity in the country, the Government of Malawi, through the National Statistical Office (NSO), requested technical support from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) to prepare and conduct the NACA in 2020. NACA Phase 1 consisted of the preparation of the census and sampling design, sample design of households, detailed work plan development, and the budget for the census. The TCP supported the activities in Phase 1. Phase 2 will include technical support during the data collection, field work, reporting and dissemination of the survey and census findings. The design and implementation of the project addressed the management of the necessary activities to carry out the 2020 NACA, responding to national priorities, specifically making data available to inform evidence-based decision-making.
