FAO Initiative on Soaring Food Prices (ISFP) - GCP/GLO/216/SPA.

Emergency Agricultural Assistance to Vulnerable Populations Affected by Climatic Risks and Food Insecurity (subset of regional project WA-08/A01, Rapid Response Fund to assist farmers affected by natural and human-made disasters) - OSRO/BKF/802/CHA. The specific objective is to grant the targeted beneficiaries an equitable access to the improved seeds varieties and other agricultural inputs in order to allow a minimal agricultural production and to reduce their dependence on food assistance.
