Food and Agriculture Organization and any organization affiliated with the United Nations to continue to partner and work with grassroots organizations in rural communities to reach the targeted poor communities and discuss with them the mechanisms for implementing the required interventions and arrange implementation priorities according to their needs. Most importantly, the communities must contribute to implementing the required intervention and for the organizations to do the work. What is required for the development of societies: The leaders of these organizations need capacity-building activities through intensive training in planning, investment, management and decision-making  ect ....to strengthen them and enable them to participate in policy development dialogues, also  the organization must choose educated youth of both sexes in the community to be among the project staff because their presence at the community level encourages and motivates them and enhances the organization’s access to the targeted group  and achieves the required goals and ensures sustainability.
