Evaluation of “Food and Nutrition Security Resilience Programme: Building food system resilience in protracted crises”
Overview
The FAO's "Food and Nutrition Security Resilience Programme (FNS-REPRO)" aimed to build food system resilience in crisis-affected areas of Sudan (Darfur), Somaliland, and South Sudan from 2019 to 2024, with a budget of USD 28 million. This evaluation assessed the program's relevance, approach, and impact on rural food security, nutrition, and resilience. Using mixed methods, including over 100 interviews, 20 focus group discussions, and field visits, the evaluation revealed FNS-REPRO's innovative approach to addressing conflict and food insecurity by upgrading food systems along value chains. Despite its novel design, the program lacked coherence between components, such as integrating nutrition capacity-building with agricultural value chains. Significant improvements were noted in agricultural income, natural resource management, conflict management, and women's engagement. However, the absence of local private sector partnerships posed a sustainability risk. The evaluation provided eight recommendations to enhance future programs, emphasizing comprehensive value chain support, local partnerships, peacebuilding funding, and community-based monitoring.
