– Improving agricultural productivity and food security
– Sustainable management of natural resources and climate change adaptation
– Sustainable intensification and resilience of production systems; income diversification and
linking small farmers to markets
– Cross cutting themes: rural poverty analysis for targeting pro-poor research and development
investments; gender mainstreaming and empowerment of women; capacity development
• Technical Backstopping to the development and implementation of investment
programs and projects
– Input into the development of IFAD country strategies: poverty mapping, strategic directions
and investment priorities
– Input into the technical design of programs and projects: assessment of the NR base, selection
of technologies, production systems and cropping patterns, up/out scaling mechanisms, impact
pathways,..
– Input into project design, supervision, mid-term and completion reviews, and impact
assessment
– Capacity development
– Knowledge Management
24. Thematic Priority Areas for Discussion
• Based on previous consultations with NEN/IFAD and recommendations
of Steering Committee meetings of Grants:
– Yield Gap for sustainable productivity growth and food security ( )
– Sustainable intensification and resilience of production systems (within the
framework of CRP DS action sites in Egypt, Jordan, Morocco, and Tunisia)- co-funding
with CRP DS and FAO
– Water and Livelihoods (co-funding with USAID and in line with Water Scarcity
Initiative of FAO for NENA)
– Date palm for improved rural livelihoods and diversified income (Algeria,
Egypt, Iraq, Morocco, Palestine, Tunisia & AP- self funded)
– Integrated Highlands production systems for improved livelihoods and
resilience (Algeria, Morocco, CAC- co-funding with Russia)
– Ex-post Impact Assessment to IFAD’s investment in ICARDA and beyond
