Also available in:
No results found.The FAO Angola Country Programming Framework (CPF) 2024–2028 aligns with Angola’s “Angola 2050” strategy and the National Development Plan (NDP) 2023–2027. It aims to promote sustainable development and reach the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030. The CPF focuses on building a sustainable, secure, and nutrition-sensitive agrifood system by improving agricultural productivity, food security, and environmental sustainability. Key focus areas include promoting innovative farming practices, strengthening climate resilience, and ensuring the inclusion of vulnerable groups such as women, youth, and people with disabilities. The framework is structured around four strategic pillars: agrifood systems transformation; family farming, agribusiness and value chains; environmental sustainability; and disaster risk management.The CPF’s objectives include improving food security and nutrition, aligning with several SDGs, and promoting inclusive socioeconomic development, particularly for youth and women, through job creation and income generation. It also aims to enhance resilience and sustainable management by adopting climate-smart technologies and promoting the blue economy. The framework strongly emphasizes enhancing market access, implementing innovative agricultural technologies, and ensuring the fair distribution of resources and opportunities. By supporting Angola’s advancement in food security, poverty reduction, and sustainable agriculture, the CPF 2024–2028 aligns with both national and global development goals. -
DocumentProgrammingCountry Programming Framework for the Gambia 2024–2028
Priorities for technical cooperation and partnership between the Government of the Gambia and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
2025Also available in:
No results found.The Country Programming Framework (CPF) 2024–2028 sets out four priority areas to facilitate FAO’s partnership with and support to the Government of the Gambia for transforming agrifood systems by applying innovative international best practices and global standards, along with national and regional expertise, and providing the required technical assistance. These are: (1) Strengthening resilience and capacities for disaster risk reduction and management; (2) Enhancing disaster risk reduction and management service provision for climate change adaptation and mitigation; (3) Economic empowerment of actors in agriculture and natural resources (ANR) value chains, particularly women and youth; and (4) Strengthening ANR value chains for inclusive and sustainable growth. The CPF will support the Government of the Gambia’s efforts to make agriculture more productive, resilient, and sustainable while ensuring that women and young people are empowered across the agrifood value chain. The CPF 2024–2028 has been developed taking into account major challenges identified in transforming the Gambia’s agrifood systems, government policies and priorities. This has been done through extensive consultations with national stakeholders, particularly Government line ministries, civil society, the private sector and development partners as well as relevant UN agencies, including the Rome-based Agencies. The CPF is also aligned with the FAO Strategic Framework 2022–31, as well as the Organization’s regional priorities for Africa, the Subregional Office for West Africa, and its corporate initiatives such as the Hand-in-Hand Initiative (HIHI), One Country One Priority Product (OCOP), and the Digital Village Initiative (DVI). The CPF 2024–2028 is designed as a living document and can be updated to respond to changes in government priorities and unfolding situations. -

DocumentOther documentResilient Livelihoods for Agriculture and Food and Nutrition Security in Areas Affected by the Syria Crisis 2014
Also available in:
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) is closely monitoring the impact of the Syria crisis on food security, nutrition, agriculture and livelihoods in Syria and neighbouring Lebanon, Jordan, Turkey, Iraq and Egypt. Assessments carried out across the affected subregion indicate that threats to food security and livelihoods are severe and growing steadily. In addition to rendering over half of Syrians poor and nearly a third food insecure, the crisis is eroding the ver y foundations of food and livelihood security in what was once a middle-income country, with a relatively high employment rate (92 percent) and growing agriculture sector. Syria’s food chain is disintegrating – from production to markets – and entire livelihood systems are collapsing. The conflict also is severely affecting economic, social and human development in neighbouring countries. With most of Syria’s 2.6 million refugees living outside of camps, host communities face intense competition for resources such as land, water and income opportunities, while costs for housing, food and other commodities soar. The humanitarian appeals for Syria and neighbouring countries are the largest in history: USD 4.4 billion in 2013 and USD 6.5 billion in 2014. As the crisis shows no sign of abating, a resilience-based approach is proving ever more crucial to meet immediate needs while helping affected populations – and the systems which support them – better absorb, adapt and recover from curr ent and future shocks emanating from the crisis. Such an approach, combining emergency and development efforts, is indispensable in the context of food and livelihood security. Behind each family pushed into poverty and hunger, systems are collapsing which need to be protected, restored and strengthened. A holistic approach is needed not only to deliver crisisaffected populations from aid dependency, but also to prevent hunger and poverty from increasing and becoming endemic. FAO’s “Resilient Livelihoods for Agriculture and Food and Nutrition Security in Areas Affected by the Syria Crisis” is a five-year Subregional Strategy and Action Plan, budgeted at USD 280 million – just over a tenth of the value of agricultural losses suffered in Syria by 2012. The Strategy is a dynamic document developed over the course of agricultural programming missions to the subregion in late 2013 and early 2014, which build on rapid agricultural livelihood and food security impact assessments and initia l response plans prepared during the first quarter of 2013. With the aim to protect, restore and strengthen livelihoods and the agro-ecosystems on which livelihoods depend, the Strategy tailors short-, medium- and longer-term actions to address specific needs of the main groups affected by the crisis, including Syrian internally displaced persons (IDPs) and affected populations, refugees, returnees, host communities and national and local authorities. Activities focus on seven priority areas, which can be broadly categorized as: (i) control of transboundary animal diseases (TADs); (ii) control of plant pests and diseases; (iii) food security and natural resource information systems, disaster risk management and policy development; (iv) rural and peri-urban income generation and employment; (v) agricultural production; (vi) natural resource management; and (vii) food safety and nutrition. The Strategy aligns with national government priorities and existing regional frameworks for add ressing the Syria crisis and calls for close partnership with affected communities, national institutions, United Nations (UN) agencies, non-state actors and private-sector organizations. Agriculture cannot be an afterthought. Affected populations in the subregion need effective responses to the challenges threatening their food security and livelihoods. A resilience-based approach delivers this, while better preserving the integrity of lives, livelihoods, natural resources and critical develop ment gains achieved over the past decades. -
