Food Security Project
|
 |
 |
|
| The development objectives of the Food Security Project for Ethiopia are to build the resource base of poorer rural households, increase their employment and incomes, reduce their real costs of food, and improve nutrition levels for their children under five years of age as well as for pregnant and lactating mothers. There are six project components: 1) funds to communities/Kebeles--the majority of the project; 2) community-based child growth promotion by providing community funds and capacity building; 3) capacity building funds to Woredas, Regions, and Federal Ministries for specific, project-related activities; 4) investments undertaken at the federal and regional levels to study and launch initiatives and policies to lower transaction costs in food marketing; 5) investments in communications to ensure transparency; and 6) administration of the flow of funds, and monitoring and evaluation. |
