Date: 2024-04-05

FAO Venezuela deployed actions in the states of Amazonas, Apure, and Sucre to "Reduce the protection risks of selected vulnerable communities through the improvement of their food and nutritional security, the rapid restoration/creation of their livelihoods and community awareness and knowledge creation, integrating gender and intersectional approaches", between January 2023 and January 2024 with the financial support of the Central Emergency and Response Fund of the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.

These actions are based on integrating three components: productive, financial, and social, as well as gender and intersectoral approaches, to ensure the sustainability of the activities.

Through training in agricultural and non-agricultural trades, the creation of Community Productive Zones (ZPC), and the promotion and creation of Community Savings and Credit Organizations (OCAC), family income generation was encouraged, improving the livelihoods of 1,500 families for a total of 10,000 beneficiaries.
