Synopsis (short abstract) FAO’s Country Programme Evaluation in Cameroon assessed the strategic positioning of the Organization in the country and its contributions to the priority areas agreed with the Government of Cameroon for the period 2013-2017 (as identified in the Country Programming Framework). The period covered by the evaluation was characterized by an increased instability and a deterioration of the food security situation in some parts of the country due to the spillover effects of two major regional crisis: that in Central African Republic that led to the arrival of refugees in the Eastern part of Cameroon, and the insurrection of the Boko Haram sect in north eastern Nigeria that affected the Far North region leading to the displacement of internal population and the arrival of refugees from Nigeria. The evaluation analysed FAO’s capacity to adapt its programme to respond to the changing needs of the country. The evaluation benefited from a close collaboration with the other Rome-Based Agencies that also conducted evaluations of their respective country programmes and strategies during the same years. This collaboration led to a joint workshop in Yaoundé that represented an occasion for presenting the results of the evaluations to national stakeholders and discuss opportunities for future joint-work.

    En 2012, environ 55 pour cent de la Population guinéenne vivait en dessous du seuil de pauvreté national. La crise engendrée par le virus Ebola en 2014-2015 a touché durement le pays, entravant les actions entreprises par la FAO pour renforcer la résilience des populations en termes de sécurité alimentaire. De nombreux projets non programmés ont été mis en œuvre pour faire face à l’état d’urgence du pays. Les réalisations ont concerné notamment: le renforcement des capacités de gestion du risque Ebola au niveau communautaire et des moyens d’existence, et la consolidation des moyens d’existence des foyers vulnérables dans le domaine agricole et de l’élevage; la mise en place d’un comité de surveillance des animaux sauvages afin d’améliorer la détection de la maladie. Du fait de la qualité de son appui institutionnel et de son expertise dans le domaine du développement rural, la FAO a gagné en crédibilité auprès des institutions nationales et des agences des Nations Unies. Cependant, sa visibilité est encore faible auprès des institutions moins directement liées au secteur agricole. En outre, l’absence d’une stratégie claire de mobilisation des ressources ne permet pas de développer un programme d’envergure allant au-delà de la seule réponse de crise.

    Évaluation de cinq projets de la FAO financés par l’Agence suédoise de coopération internationale au développement au Cameroun, au Mali, au Niger et au Tchad

    L'évaluation vise à contribuer à l'apprentissage à l'échelle de l'organisation en tirant les leçons des projets de résilience de financement pluriannuel mis en œuvre au Sahel et au Cameroun et en faisant des recommandations pour la programmation future. La FAO est intervenue dans ces pays pour renforcer la résilience des ménages vulnérables touchés par la crise au Sahel en promouvant des moyens de subsistance durables. L'évaluation a révélé que les projets ont contribué à une amélioration de la production animale et agricole et renforcé la cohésion sociale entre les différentes communautés. L'évaluation a également révélé qu'un mécanisme de financement pluriannuel est flexible et permet une transition d'une approche humanitaire à une approche de développement s'il est utilisé efficacement. Dans sa programmation future, la FAO devrait promouvoir une approche intégrée, ciblant les mêmes bénéficiaires, leur permettant de s'engager dans des activités productives et une gestion durable des ressources naturelles. Dans les contextes fragiles et d'urgence, la FAO devrait adapter ses outils et procédures pour plus de flexibilité et de gestion adaptative.

    The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2021
    Transforming food systems for food security, improved nutrition and affordable healthy diets for all
    2021
    Also available in:
    In recent years, several major drivers have put the world off track to ending world hunger and malnutrition in all its forms by 2030. The challenges have grown with the COVID-19 pandemic and related containment measures. This report presents the first global assessment of food insecurity and malnutrition for 2020 and offers some indication of what hunger might look like by 2030 in a scenario further complicated by the enduring effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. It also includes new estimates of the cost and affordability of healthy diets, which provide an important link between the food security and nutrition indicators and the analysis of their trends. Altogether, the report highlights the need for a deeper reflection on how to better address the global food security and nutrition situation.To understand how hunger and malnutrition have reached these critical levels, this report draws on the analyses of the past four editions, which have produced a vast, evidence-based body of knowledge of the major drivers behind the recent changes in food security and nutrition. These drivers, which are increasing in frequency and intensity, include conflicts, climate variability and extremes, and economic slowdowns and downturns – all exacerbated by the underlying causes of poverty and very high and persistent levels of inequality. In addition, millions of people around the world suffer from food insecurity and different forms of malnutrition because they cannot afford the cost of healthy diets. From a synthesized understanding of this knowledge, updates and additional analyses are generated to create a holistic view of the combined effects of these drivers, both on each other and on food systems, and how they negatively affect food security and nutrition around the world.In turn, the evidence informs an in-depth look at how to move from silo solutions to integrated food systems solutions. In this regard, the report proposes transformative pathways that specifically address the challenges posed by the major drivers, also highlighting the types of policy and investment portfolios required to transform food systems for food security, improved nutrition, and affordable healthy diets for all. The report observes that, while the pandemic has caused major setbacks, there is much to be learned from the vulnerabilities and inequalities it has laid bare. If taken to heart, these new insights and wisdom can help get the world back on track towards the goal of ending hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition in all its forms.

    Emergency response
    Evaluation of the project "Emergency response and support to vulnerable populations in at-risk areas of Burkina Faso" - Phase I
    OSRO/BKF/801/SWE
    2022
    Also available in:
    The project "Emergency response and support to vulnerable populations in at-risk areas of Burkina Faso" is financed by the Swedish International Development Agency. FAO implemented the project in partnership with the Government of Burkina Faso through the Ministry for Agriculture, Hydro-agricultural Development and Mechanisation. The project seeks to improve vulnerable populations’ access to food and to means of food production. This first phase of the evaluation focused on suggesting improvements to the project over the rest of its implementation period, and more particularly improvements as pertaining to relevance, efficiency and efficacy of the project. The implementation of these recommendations should allow the project and more generally FAO, the FAO Office in Burkina Faso and the Government, to close a project that has achieved its objectives
