Congo, Dem. Rep. - Resilience Index Measurement and Analysis 2019

In response to these alarming contexts, the Rome-based United Nations agencies (RBAs), which include the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the World Food Programme (WFP) and the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), with the support of the Government of Canada, are implementing a programme to strengthen livelihood resilience in the contexts of protracted crises in DRC, Niger and Somalia. This 5-year programme, from March 2017 to December 2021, seeks to support interventions in the areas of resilience, livelihoods, food security, nutrition, and sustainable agriculture. It thus contributes to sustainably improving food security and building the resilience to shocks and stressors of men, women, boys and girls, and members of food insecure households in these regions affected by protracted and recurrent crises.
