Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)

No results found.As a result of the ongoing political and economic crisis in Venezuela (Bolivarian Republic of), more than 5 million Venezuelans have left the country since 2014, of whom about 897 000 have applied for asylum globally, and by the end of 2020 an estimated 6.5 million will have left the country. The country’s capacity to import has deteriorated due to the continued depreciation of the local currency and the dwindling level of foreign exchange reserves, following the decline in oil revenues and the imposition of international sanctions. In addition, logistical constraints linked to the effects of the pandemic are expected to adversely affect food access among urban and peri-urban communities. The Government has thus launched production plans and financial assistance to boost agricultural production, especially of cereals, and strengthen the public food distribution system. The urgent and essential restrictions put in place by the Government in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic have affected logistics and agricultural activities across the country. The plummeting prices of oil amid the COVID-19 outbreak have reduced export earnings, worsening the country’s capacity to import. The combined effects of fuel shortages and containment measures has disrupted food production and local food supply chains. In the framework of FAO’s Corporate COVID-19 Response and Recovery Programme and the United Nations Global Humanitarian Response Plan for COVID-19, FAO has revised its humanitarian response for 2020 to mitigate the effects of the pandemic and address the needs of the most vulnerable households.
