Providing emergency food security and livelihoods support to 5,333 households in Duk County of South Sudan. The emergency food security and livelihoods support project is a dual sub-sector (fisheries and vegetable farming) response, which will run for 6 months from August 2018 –February 2019.The main goal of the project is increase food availability and access by providing lifesaving emergency livelihood support kits. Training will be provided to most vulnerable households to enhance fishing and vegetable production mainly for consumption at the household level. And, given an increase of market day’s events, sale of surplus at local markets in selected payams of Ageer, Payuel and Padiet in Duk County will create extra income for these households. Specifically, this project will target vulnerable households in the bomas of . These Bomas are chosen due to their suitability for fishing and vegetable production. 
SAADO will target 5333 households in Duk County with emergency fishing and vegetable kits. This location has been chosen because it represents IPC phase 3 amp 4 according to the IPC May to July 2018. The emergency livelihood kits will be obtained from the FSLC-recommended/FAO pipeline to communities affected by the ongoing crisis in Jonglei and NBeG states.
SAADO will put in place a mechanism for effective and participatory community vulnerability mapping in the selected Bomas and use a comprehensive beneficiary selection criteria developed and discussed and agreed upon with the communities to include Men, Women, Boys and Girls. During community consultations at various levels, all men, women boys and girls will be consulted to fully understand and appreciate the impact of the current crisis on men, women and children that would further inform response. “Do no harm” and AAP principles will be applied throughout the duration of the project, so that any possible negative implications of the project at community level are addressed before they occur through integrating a strong Communicating with Communities (CwC) feedback mechanisms. The project will build upon/complement SAADO long experience in implementing livestock disease prevention and control through vaccination and treatment in Duk county with FAO It will also complement the Lives Saving and livelihood protection activities carried out by other FSL partners in the counties especially CRS, NRC, and VSF-Germany in Duk. The proposed activities are time-critical, necessary and sufficient to achieve the stated outputs for these interventions based on the relevance of each activity in saving lives and protecting livelihoods of the communities. The indicators selected are SMART and SAADO has in place a strong monitoring and evaluation system/mechanisms to measure these indicators and to ensure the intended results are achieved. Additionally, the output targets are reasonably achievable considering our existing implementation capacity and experience in food security and livelihood programs. The means of verification, such as monthly reports, distribution lists and regular field visits are strongly credible and are currently used by the organization in its MEAL processes across its field offices in the country.
