L’agriculture familiale produit aujourd’hui plus de 60% de la nourriture consommée dans le monde et emploie 40% de la population active mondiale.

Este compendio de documentos ha sido organizado y editado para ayudar a mantener la memoria, en una sociedad que suele tener una frágil recordación histórica que conlleva a creer que todo gobierno de turno debe comenzar de cero. Está dirigido a líderes agrarios, líderes comunales, promotores de organizaciones no gubernamentales de desarrollo rural (ONGs), a académicos e invesgadores universitarios y por supuesto a legisladores y funcionarios públicos.

The aim of the rapid assessment is to support the transition from emergency post conflict recovery to a development approach. The completion of the water, sanitation, and hygiene, or WASH strategic framework in 2011 was intended to mark the beginning of this transition in the water resources sector. Among other things, the transition involved the adjustment of policy and strategy and possibly a rethinking of approaches as the government shifts from primarily supply-driven emergency and recovery assistance to sustainable development.

This report seeks to support the larger jobs study by examining how investment in South Sudan’s food sector can not only address food security needs, it can generate income and lay the foundation for livelihood and job creation in the country. It argues that applying a value chain lens to investments in the sector can contribute to creating direct, indirect, and induced labor in the food system. The goal is to move the country from a dependency on humanitarian aid to building recovery and resilience in the short term in a way that can produce stable jobs over the medium to long term.
This article explores how conflict-induced displacement influences agricultural innovation processes and systems, and its implications after the return home or permanent resettlement of smallholder farmers. Results show that high rates of agricultural innovation occurred during displacement in the Sudanese Civil War (1983-2005), many of which were maintained afterwards.
