2024 – The impacts of WFP’s integrated climate risk management approach on farmers’ resilience to climate change
This study shows how WFP’s R4 Rural Resilience Initiative helps farmers manage climate and disaster risks based on evidence gathered from five countries that implement an Integrated Climate Risk Management approach.
Results from the study demonstrate more substantial enhancements in farming households that are already comparatively well-off, specifically with regard to food consumption, wealth, and agricultural investments. These findings validate WFP’s new strategic approach, which will target farmers from different socioeconomic profiles and reinforce integration with WFP’s activities, promoting productivity and access to markets. Furthermore, the study indicates that female-headed households exhibited notable improvements in food security and coping strategies, albeit at a slower pace compared to male-headed households.
