BookletEvaluation of the project “Food and Nutrition Security Resilience Programme: Building food system resilience in protracted crises”
Project code: GCP/GLO/997/NET
2024Also available in:
No results found.The FAO's "Food and Nutrition Security Resilience Programme (FNS-REPRO)" aimed to build food system resilience in crisis-affected areas of Sudan (Darfur), Somaliland, and South Sudan from 2019 to 2024, with a budget of USD 28 million. This evaluation assessed the program's relevance, approach, and impact on rural food security, nutrition, and resilience. Using mixed methods, including over 100 interviews, 20 focus group discussions, and field visits, the evaluation revealed FNS-REPRO's innovative approach to addressing conflict and food insecurity by upgrading food systems along value chains. Despite its novel design, the program lacked coherence between components, such as integrating nutrition capacity-building with agricultural value chains. Significant improvements were noted in agricultural income, natural resource management, conflict management, and women's engagement. However, the absence of local private sector partnerships posed a sustainability risk. The evaluation provided eight recommendations to enhance future programs, emphasizing comprehensive value chain support, local partnerships, peacebuilding funding, and community-based monitoring. -
Book (series)Cluster evaluation of projects on protecting, improving, and sustaining food security in rural Somalia
Project codes: OSRO/SOM/908/USA - OSRO/SOM/007/USA
2022Also available in:
No results found.Between 2019 and 2021 FAO implemented two large projects aimed to protect, improve and sustain rural food security in Somalia. Key activities included Food Security Cluster Coordination, cash transfers (including Cash+, cash for work, and Long-Term Cash and Livelihoods), contagious caprine pleuropneumonia vaccination, fall armyworm pest control, field schools and improving agricultural production in the Bay region. The cluster evaluation covered all project activities, specifically focusing on the cash transfers. The evaluation aimed to provide accountability for results achieved and importantly, capture lessons learned. Overall, FAO Somalia delivered a good at-scale cash programme in a very difficult operating environment. Significant attention needs to be paid to chronic issues such as delays in time-critical inputs, linkages with resilience activities, centralized programme design, an inhibiting “service provider” partnership model and IT systems that need to be strengthened to provide necessary information on reporting, traceability, trend and anomaly detection. -
