Resilience programming among nongovernmental organizations

Lessons for policymakers

This food policy report reviews resilience processes, activities, and outcomes by examining a number of case studies of initiatives by nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) to enhance resilience capacity, and draws implications for policymakers and other stakeholders looking to strengthen resilience.

Resilience building relies on integrated programming—a cross-sectoral approach with a long-term commitment to improving the three critical capacities: absorptive capacity (disaster risk management), adaptive capacity (longer-term livelihood investments), and transformative capacity (improved governance and enabling conditions). Programs with an integrated approach ensure that partners and sectors work together to address key leverage points and adopt complementary, synergistic strategies to promote resilience; such programs emphasize cross-sectoral programming supports and protects a core programming focus (for example, food security, poverty, peace building), ultimately strengthening resilience.
