Food systems around the world are failing to deliver food security, good nutrition, and equitable livelihoods for millions of people, making them more vulnerable to shocks and increasing humanitarian needs
Food security in Sri Lanka is improving across all provinces, according to the Crop and Food Security Assessment Mission (CFSAM) report jointly carried out in February/March 2023 by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the United Nations Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ (Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ). The report estimates 3.9 million people or 17 percent of the population is in moderate acute food insecurity which is nearly a 40 percent decrease from June/July last year. Nearly 10,000 people are severely acute food-insecure, down from 66,000 people last year.
Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¡¯s approach is to support Pacific governments and regional organizations to better anticipate, prepare for and respond to the impacts of climate change and other shocks on food security and nutrition, with a particular focus on those most at risk of being left behind
The Private Partnerships and Fundraising (PPF) team commissioned the mid-term evaluation of the Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Private Sector Partnerships and Fundraising (PSPF) Strategy (2020-2025) to take stock of results achieved at mid-term of the six-year Strategy and inform course-corrections during the remaining implementation period.
Recognizing that the increasing number of food crises require resources and capacities far beyond the reach of any individual organization, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ (Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ) are partnering together to scale up the reach of Anticipatory Action
In Asia and the Pacific Region, Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ provides a wide range of strategic and technical support and capacity strengthening services across 17 countries, with a view to improving the coverage, comprehensiveness, adequacy, quality and responsiveness of national social protection systems. This brief provides a snapshot of Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ's social protection work in the region with an overview of the engagements at the country level
