AHC has been implementing FSL programs since 2018 in collaboration UNFAO and IOM in Upper Nile, Unity, Jonglei and Central Equatoria States of South Sudan. The projects involve emergency livelihood kits (crop, fishing and vegetable seeds and agricultural tools) and fuel-efficient stoves distribution to support the most food insecure and displaced households. In these programming, AHC also conducts capacity strengthening initiatives including training on sustainable agriculture, climate information downscaling, water harvest and integrated pest control. Other training includes artisans, tailoring, dress making, bread making, soap making, village savings and loans associations support targeted for women and youths in the affected communities. The FSL response is linked to various Sustainable Development Goals including 1, 2, 8,10, 13 and 16 most importantly to “End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture”.
