    The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has developed this three-year strategy to strengthen resilience of agriculture-based livelihoods in Nigeria under recurring threats from both conflict and natural hazard-induced disasters to better withstand shocks and thrive. It integrates the pathways for resilience through four main outcome areas. The first one is the strengthening of the national institutions and their entities for disaster risk reduction, natural resources management and food crisis prevention and management in the agriculture sector. Secondly, it aims to inform agriculture-based livelihood interventions with reliable data, analysis and a well-established early warning system against known and emerging risks and hazards, for enhanced food security. Besides, the strategy aims to promote diversified, resilient and inclusive agriculture-based livelihood systems and also to improve and protect food security and nutrition, and agriculture-based livelihoods of crisis-affected populations.

    Strengthening resilience to threats and crises 2016
    Also available in:
    Half of the global food production is produced by around 2.5 billion smallholders who derive their livelihoods almost exclusively from agriculture. They are amongst the most vulnerable to disasters and crises that can wipe out their crops, supplies, equipment and animals within minutes. Strengthening the resilience of their livelihoods will help reduce human suffering and the financial costs associated with disasters. Moreover, it is a key step to achieving the SDGs and reaching the estimated 60 percent production increase the world needs to feed 9 billion people by 2050.
