As the lead agency in the food security and agriculture sectors, FAO has been supporting the development of income-generation activities for vulnerable people and the rehabilitation and maintenance of traditional irrigation schemes for resettled displaced households, among other activities.

For the purpose, FAO has developed and is currently implementing joint programmes with other UN agencies implemented in the various sectors.

Intervention areas: (i) support to the winter cereal crop production (wheat); (ii) backyard poultry production; (iii) vegetable production; (iv) micro-gardening; (v) support to small-scale livestock herders; (vi) co-coordination of the Food and Agriculture Sector.
