Increase suistanable human development through restauration of ecosystems services and an integrated ecosystem management approach in the wilayas of souther Mauritania

The main objective is to promote sustainable agricultural production by making water resources accessible through a solar-powered irrigation technologies, whilst putting in place measures to safeguard those very resources. The second objective is to support rural livelihoods (providing access to reliable and clean energy in rural areas and providing options for a diversification of incomes) through the sustainable use of solar irrigation technologies.

To strengthen regional capacities and to enhance regional information exchange and to build the framework for the adaptation of pathways for increasing water productivity in selected farming systems of the beneficiary countries

Strengthened producer organizations (POs) can help SSFF overcome the barriers they face and develop innovative organizational arrangements that broaden their capabilities. Given the wide range of services that inclusive and efficient POs can provide to their members, these organizations are essential for a thriving agricultural sector and for boosting rural economies. They enable farmers to benefit from an array of services including access and management of natural resources, markets, credits, inputs and information as well as influencing policy-making processes. POs are a vehicle to encourage rural populations to remain in their territories instead of migrating to urban centers or to other countries. For this, governments have a critical role to play in creating conducive conditions by enabling collective action of producers to form and thrive. These conditions include developing transparent and sound regulatory frameworks, a conducive investment climate, as well as facilitating the creation of frameworks and policy dialogue spaces between governments and various stakeholders.

to prevent the introduction of the disease into the region, through capacity building of technical staff and farmers on early detection, diagnosis, surveillance and phytosanitary measures.

To fill critical technical gaps in the existing food security information systems in Lebanon, Jordan and Iraq.

The project responds to the concerns of the region in terms of stabilizing the food situation, in general and the food security, in particular, while also advocating for the conservation of the fast degrading and depleting natural resources, particularly water resources. The project responds also to the various regional initiatives that are being articulated by Arab Governments including, the Strategy for Sustainable Arab Agricultural Development for the Upcoming Two Decades (2005-2025), and other resolutions involving Arab member states, LAS specialized agencies (AOAD and ACSAD) and United Nations organizations serving the Arab region through various mechanisms including the Council of Arab Ministers Responsible for the Environment (CAMRE) and its technical committee, the Joint Committee on Environment and Development in the Arab Region (JCEDAR), the Arab Ministerial Water Council (AMWC) among others. The project will partly build upon the outputs and experience of the SIDA financed RICCAR.

1) To improve food security, protect and restore agricultural livelihoods of vulnerable households affected by the Syria crisis in Syria and Lebanon; 2) To identify ways to strengthen institutional capacities and provide policy advice to address and overcome the water-energy-food challenges in Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey in the context of both climate change and the refugee crisis

Account for IFAD to reimburse FAO (as FAO will be hosting IFAD premises)

Improve productivity and efficiency in the agricultural sector. Afforestation projects using treated wastewater for stabilising sand dunes, thus contributing to efforts to combat desertification

The project intends to set the proper framework for implementing the 2030 Agenda for water efficiency and productivity (SDG 6.4) through three major work packages: (i) establishing a robust water accounting system providing the evidence base for the full water budgeting (supply, demand, uses and re-cycling, present and projected) and for monitoring progress in the achievement of the targets while assessing the institutional effectiveness to govern water resources; (ii) implementing a series of interventions to increase water efficiency and productivity in selected farming systems of the countries to advance in achieving the SDG 6.4; interventions will include: introduction/enhancement of good practices and affordable technologies; improvement of decentralized water governance; development of under-exploited value chain rural agro-industry; leveraging on the multiplier effect to increase productivity when accounting for gender dimensions in the adoption of on-farm practices and technologies, in decentralized governance and along the value chain; elaboration of incentive frameworks, adapted to each local conditions, to promote the uptake of good practise and technologies at farm level and to stimulate entrepreneurial initiatives along the value chain (thus generating higher income and higher job opportunity); (iii) ensuring that higher efficiency/productivity achievements for the 2030 time horizon are attained within ?safe operational boundaries of water use? defining the conditions for ?water sustainability? and, therefore, for a sustainable, socially equitable and human-rights based development.The present proposal intends to set the proper framework for implementing the 2030 Agenda for water efficiency and productivity (SDG 6.4) through three major work packages: (i) establishing a robust water accounting system providing the evidence base for the full water budgeting (supply, demand, uses and re-cycling, present and projected) and for monitoring progress in the achievement of the targets while assessing the institutional effectiveness to govern water resources; (ii) implementing a series of interventions to increase water efficiency and productivity in selected farming systems of the countries to advance in achieving the SDG 6.4; interventions will include: introduction/enhancement of good practices and affordable technologies; improvement of decentralized water governance; development of under-exploited value chain rural agro-industry; leveraging on the multiplier effect to increase productivity when accounting for gender dimensions in the adoption of on-farm practices and technologies, in decentralized governance and along the value chain; elaboration of incentive frameworks, adapted to each local conditions, to promote the uptake of good practise and technologies at farm level and to stimulate entrepreneurial initiatives along the value chain (thus generating higher income and higher job opportunity); (iii) ensuring that higher efficiency/productivity achievements for the 2030 time horizon are attained within ?safe operational boundaries of water use? defining the conditions for ?water sustainability? and, therefore, for a sustainable, socially equitable and human-rights based development.

Generate and collect data to document the changing dietary habits in the Mediterranean Basin as well as their drivers. (Tunisia and Lebanon) Assess food consumption patterns in these two selected countries by using available food consumption surveys and food balance sheets/supply utilization accounts. Calculate country-specific consumption patterns and trends, in terms of dietary energy, protein, fat, and selected micronutrients. 4 Assess these consumption patterns for their adherence with Mediterranean diet. 5 Develop a conceptual framework to improve adherence to the Mediterranean diet pattern Presentation at a workshop at the end of the project hosted at the Ministry of Health. PHASE 2 (2017-2018) Extension of the project to other countries.

Countries are supported to develop evidence-based food losses and waste reduction programmes at national, regional and global levels; Governments and relevant stakeholders are provided with support to promote inclusive, efficient and sustainable agrifood value chains

The Near East Regional Componente directly addresses the three pillars forming the foundation of the Global Strategy: 1. Establishing a minimum set of core data that countries will disseminate on a regular basis to meet current and emerging demands; 2. Integrating agriculture into national statistical systems in order to meet the requirements of policy makers and other data users that statistical information be linked across the economic, social, and environmental domains ; 3. Fostering the sustainability of the agricultural statistical systems through governance and statistical capacity building.
