The overall objective of the proposed programme is to strengthen the resilience of vulnerable communities affected by food insecurity, malnutrition, and climate change in the regions of Ségou and Sikasso. The joint programme will bring together the expertise of the three agencies in a multi-sector, multi-level and short-medium and long-term approach aimed at both stabilizing the food, nutrition and health situation of the most vulnerable in the targeted areas in the short term and strengthening the food and nutrition security in the medium and long term. The programme has three main components and results areas contributing to the overall objective: 1. Strengthened local and gender-sensitive approach to sustainable, equitable and peaceful management of natural resources. 2. Increased access to basic social services and social safety nets as well as improved nutritional and hygiene behaviours and practices, enabling food security and nutrition for vulnerable people, including internally displaced people (IDPs). 3. Strengthened resilience of farmers and pastoralists to climate change, through diversification of livelihoods, improved nutrition sensitive value chains, sustainable management of natural resources and conservation of biodiversity. FAO, Unicef and WFP have developed an innovative approach that provides an integrated package for vulnerable people in the same geographical areas. The integrated approach uses a combination of economic, social, technical, and financial interventions that are mutually reinforcing to quickly revitalize the local economy and the livelihoods of the local population.
