Livelihoods are rural people’s greatest defense against hunger and malnutrition. Crises undermine rural livelihoods and erode people’s capacity to cope with the next shock. In humanitarian contexts, FAO brings wide-ranging technical expertise and operational experience to the fore to safeguard livelihoods and enable crisis-hit and at-risk people to access and start producing food as quickly as possible. Protecting livelihoods by providing emergency agricultural assistance from the onset of a crisis is crucial to save lives, while enabling people to produce food and earn an income. Even in the most complex, difficult to access contexts, food security and livelihood interventions save lives, safeguard livelihoods and contribute to strengthening resilience in the face of future crises. Even in dark times there is light.
