Enhancing Food and Nutrition Security in Lebanon

About this project

The project seeks to enhance food and nutrition security and resilience for people in Lebanon by increasing the adoption of gender-responsive, nutrition-sensitive climate smart agricultural practices amongst farmers, improving the performance of selected fruits and vegetables value chains (VC) through cooperation at farmers’ and VC actors’ level, and creating an inclusive enabling environment in which VC actors – from farmers to distributors – operate. The project will build the technical and organizational capacity of small-scale fruits (apples) and vegetables (tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, and eggplants) farmers – women in particular – and their organizations, allowing them to participate more effectively in selected value chains. The project also supports other VC actors – from input producers to processors and traders – to adopt innovative technologies at the production or marketing and processing levels and to become more inclusive and responsive to farmers’ needs. At a policy level, the project facilitates dialogue between VC actors and the government to promote the design and implementation of inclusive policies, legislation and programs that meet the needs of farmers and orientes toward developing sustainable and inclusive value chains.
