South Sudan, FAO, Improving nutrition and resilience in Warrap

01.08.2014 - 30.06.2016

With an unfolding internal armed conflict, the food security situation in South Sudan is severely deteriorating. Due to insecurity and displacement, many people were not able to attend their fields and gardens during the planting season, which will affect harvests towards the end of the year. Under the goal to boost sustainable agriculture, the main objective of this project is to increase the resilience (food security, livelihoods and income) of 1350 households and to improve production, food availability and access of nutritious food sources in Warrap State. By targeting an area that is affected by food insecurity but is relatively stable, the project aims at improving food security in the area and reducing the dependency on food aid.

Resilience to Climate Change – Support to the thematic programme of the Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery GFDRR [RCC-GFDRR]

01.08.2014 - 31.07.2018

Climate- and weather-related events hurt rich and poor countries alike, but have a higher impact on the most vulnerable and least prepared nations and communities. Building climate resilience is therefore critical to help end extreme poverty and build shared prosperity, and as such needs to be at the forefront of the international development agenda. RCC-GFDRR will strengthen climate resilience in cooperation with the Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery, using synergies with other SDC activities.

Evaluation and Results Management Support to Multilateral Organisations

At the same time, results-oriented operations and evaluations are key instruments for their work. The proposed project plans to strengthen these instruments to improve the effectiveness of the above mentioned organisations.

WHO - Emergency drugs supplies

25.07.2014 - 24.01.2015

Today hospitals in Gaza are ill-prepared to meet the critical needs arising from a wide-scale emergency, because the health sector in the Strip is already suffering from a chronic shortage of medical supplies and fuel for years. In order to prevent the collapse of the Palestinian health system, to mitigate the effects of the supply shortages and to respond to the emergency situation prevailing in Gaza due to the heavy shelling causing thousands of civilians causalities, SDC is responding to a WHO emergency humanitarian appeal that will serve to purchase medical supplies to cover the needs of at least 37.000 patients.
