We help them build resilience, expand their businesses and take charge of their own development. Together with government agencies and development partners, IFAD has identified areas where it has a comparative advantage and complements other donors’ activities. The IFAD results-based country strategic opportunities programme for the period 2018-2024 aims to support smallholders’ increased livelihoods, resilience to natural shocks, and overall food security and nutrition. IFAD-supported investments will improve smallholders’ access to financial services and markets, climate-smart agricultural technologies and better nutrition.
To date, 17 projects have been conducted in the country, at a total cost of US$509 million, with IFAD financing amounting to US$164.81 million. An estimated 329,775 households have benefited directly.
