IGAD-FAO Partnership Programme (PP)
Cross border areas in the HoA is home to some of the most vulnerable populations in the region and are therefore critical in the regional resilience agenda. There are a number of national resilience building interventions in cross borders that require a regional approach. Cross border programming for policy and investment is gaining momentum, following years of piloting and advocacy by various actors in the HoA. Programming at cross border level is imperative if adverse effects of policy and investment decisions and actions are to be avoided including problems of overgrazing, transmission of trans-boundary animal diseases and resource use conflicts.
IGAD-FAO Partnership Programme (PP) is formulated in support of IGAD Drought Disaster Resilience and Sustainability Initiative (IDDRSI) with a focus to implement cross border actions in close collaboration with the respective communities and national authorities.
Donor
The programme is funded by Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) with a budget of USD 10 million over 5 years.
What is the Project about?
The programme is designed by IGAD and FAO to bring communities at the centre of cross-border policy and investment discourse and actions, not only as beneficiaries but as key stakeholders defining the agenda of their future. Its seeks to enhance the resilience of communities in selected cross border areas coupled with the strengthening of IGAD’s capacity (particularly the specialized institutions) to effectively lead and facilitate interaction among its member states on policy and investments thereby fostering the delivery of cross border resilience. Four key components identified through interaction with various key stakeholders frame the programme:
Programme thematic focus
Who are the stakeholders?
The primary programme stakeholders are cross-border communities living in drought- and conflict-prone cross-border ASAL areas of IGAD member countries. The envisaged target communities are primarily agropastoral in nature deriving their livelihoods largely from livestock production/herding supplemented by smaller-scale crop production and petty training. The other key stakeholders are the Member States, IGAD and its specialized institutions, research organizations, the donors, NGOs and the service providers (consultants, contractors and others).
