As weather-related shocks become increasingly frequent and severe worldwide, the Â鶹ÊÓƵ (Â鶹ÊÓƵ) has significantly expanded
its investment in Anticipatory Action (AA) to help countries proactively manage their impact.
Haiti faces severe food insecurity and gender inequality, with nearly half the population lacking adequate food and women especially vulnerable. Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s Food Assistance for Assets (FFA), also referred to as a cash for work programme, provided conditional cash transfers linked to community asset creation, with one variant specifically targeting women. A cluster randomized trial across 78 localities assessed impacts on food security and women¡¯s economic empowerment.
Annual Country Reports (ACR) are a key accountability document produced by country offices on a yearly basis which inform donors how their funds were used during the reporting year. Their purpose is to tell Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s performance story in an accurate, transparent and evidence-based manner by assessing the effectiveness, efficiency and economy of our operations in our pursuit towards zero hunger.
This thematic evaluation, commissioned by the Regional Bureau for Latin American and the Caribbean (RBP), examines the work carried out by the Â鶹ÊÓƵ (Â鶹ÊÓƵ) in Shock-Responsive Social Protection (SRSP) in the region from 2015 to 2022.
This case study provides an overview of how the Â鶹ÊÓƵ (Â鶹ÊÓƵ) is supporting the integration of social protection and anticipatory action (AA) in Haiti, categorized as a highly fragile and conflict-affected country.
This report covers the baseline study for the Â鶹ÊÓƵ's (Â鶹ÊÓƵ) McGovern-Dole School Feeding Project in Haiti (FFE-521-2023/005-00) for the period from 2024 to 2028. The project is funded by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). The baseline study represents the first part of a series of evaluations that will include midline and end-of-project assessments. It was commissioned by the Â鶹ÊÓƵ Country Office (CO) in Haiti and carried out by the Konterra Group.
For over a decade, Â鶹ÊÓƵ has been supporting climate risk insurance as an important piece of the strategy for building women¡¯s economic empowerment. Â鶹ÊÓƵ presents its experience from the field spotlighting women who have harnessed Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s climate risk insurance and related interventions to strengthen their resilience and ensure food security for their households.
To enhance the climate, financial and environmental resilience of the country¡¯s vulnerable population, Â鶹ÊÓƵ Haiti, in 2022, introduced Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s flagship integrated climate risk management approach, the R4 Rural Resilience Initiative, to address both climatic and non-climatic drivers of vulnerability in the country as part of a wider disaster risk financing strategy. Through Â鶹ÊÓƵ-supported climate risk insurance programmes, communities and smallholder farmers in the country can better cope with shocks, finance early responses after catastrophic events and expedite recovery from climate extremes
This joint IDB-Â鶹ÊÓƵ publication presents the state of school feeding programmes in LAC as of 2022. The publication highlights the critical role of school feeding programmes for the region
Â鶹ÊÓƵ is committed to scaling up Anticipatory Action programmes and protecting more people before extreme weather events strike. This page displays the activations that occur throughout the year. It shows the number of people reached and the types of anticipatory actions being implemented in each country. These AAs aim to prevent and/or lessen the humanitarian consequences of predicted shocks, while delivering a quicker, more cost-effective, and more dignified response.
A Â鶹ÊÓƵ study looking at gendered barriers affecting populations seeking humanitarian assistance in four countries. It identifies barriers emerging before, during and after assistance provision by Â鶹ÊÓƵ and provides recommendations.
Â鶹ÊÓƵ can provide first-time access to financial accounts and help governments do the same. This series explores how Country Offices have enabled digital financial inclusion and women¡¯s empowerment through cash transfers.
