    Enhancing National Veterinary Service Delivery Capacity in Nigeria, South Africa and Uganda - MTF/INT/610/BMG

    No full text
    Animal healthcare services are crucial for managing livestock diseases and enhancing productivity, especially in regions with low veterinarian availability, like sub-Saharan Africa and Asia. Structural adjustments in these regions have shifted public veterinary services to focus on disease surveillance and control, limiting broader livestock healthcare. Private-sector veterinary paraprofessionals (VPPs) are pivotal in filling this gap, reaching rural livestock farmers, including women. However, they face challenges, including gaps in training, lack of professional development, remote work environments, competition from unqualified providers, and poorly regulated veterinary product markets. These obstacles often prevent VPPs from sustaining their businesses, exacerbating service access gaps. To address these challenges, FAO received a grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to pilot a sustainable VPP-driven animal health service model. In collaboration with HealthforAnimals and the World Veterinary Association (WVA), FAO selected Nigeria, South Africa and Uganda for project implementation, following comprehensive assessments of each country’s legal and regulatory environment

    Le module de l’enquête fondé sur l’Echelle de mesure de l’insécurité alimentaire basée sur les expériences (FIES-SM) est composé de huit questions aux réponses dichotomiques oui/non. Ensemble, les variables du FIES-SM composent une échelle statistique conçue pour couvrir une certaine fourchette de gravité de l’insécurité alimentaire et devraient être analysées en tant qu’échelle et non en tant que variables séparées

    Mali: Humanitarian Response Plan 2025

    No full text
    Au Mali, l’insécurité persistante et les inondations récurrentes privent les populations de leurs moyens de subsistance agricoles. Sans aide humanitaire adéquate, le nombre de personnes en insécurité alimentaire aiguë pourrait doubler durant la période de soudure (juin-août 2025). Cette situation touche particulièrement les zones rurales, où seule une assistance urgente permettrait aux ménages de produire leur nourriture. Par exemple, un kit maraîcher pour la production hors sol permet à un ménage de cultiver environ 3,5 tonnes de légumes en six mois

    En el Departamento de Antioquia, uno de los principales problemas identificados, son las deficiencias en los procesos productivos y de integración logística territorial y comercial que dificultan un acceso sostenible y equitativo a mercados de los productores agropecuarios. Esta situación está causada por la alta intermediación, los altos costos de producción, la baja tecnificación del sector agropecuario, la baja capacidad organizativa de los productores rurales y las deficiencias logísticas y de distribución de alimentos en los territorios. A causa de una estructura de desequilibrios socioculturales, económicos y regionales, las regiones cuentan con baja capacidad para aprovechar su dotación natural, y para vincularse al mercado local, nacional e internacional. Como consecuencia, el Departamento de Antioquia, desaprovecha su potencial agropecuario y agroindustrial, terminando por dejar al productor agropecuario en una mayor condición de vulnerabilidad y dependiente de lo que ofrecen los comercializadores para obtener ingresos de subsistencia. En dicho contexto, el presente proyecto tuvo como objetivo recuperar el sentido público que se encuentra inmerso en los sistemas de abastecimiento y comercialización de alimentos, generando redes y esquemas cooperativos en los cuales se distribuyan de forma equitativa y justa los márgenes de rentabilidad, se construya conciencia social alrededor de los alimentos, y se mejoren las condiciones de acceso y disponibilidad a la población menos favorecida económicamente
