Enhancing farmers' resilience through Improving food security for most vulnerable households in Bethlehem, Nablus, and Salfit Governorates- Area C ltp class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:8.0ptline-height:105%"gtltspan style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif"gtThe project will contribute to strengthening the
steadfastness of farmers in 11 targeted locations in Area C, where 36 settlements occupy their lands. These
lands are exposed to settlers’ and occupational forces attacks and violence, and are at a high risk of confiscation
by the occupational authorities (ex. Destruction of agricultural lands, demolition of rainwater collection cisterns and animals barns, the release of sewer water from settlements on agricultural lands, total control over natural water springs, and the closure of agricultural roads to stop farmers access). The project will serve 3,550 dunums of
agricultural land owned by approximately 614 families, with a total number of
family members at 3070 (906 men, 875 women, 660 boys, 629 girls). Approximately
70 people from the total number targeted are special needs.lt/spangtlt/pgt

take place to ensure good governance, participation and ownership, and
information and accountability. PARC’s team will announce and formulate Local
Committees (LC) in each location. These LC will have representatives from Village
councils, Municipalities, CBOs, and the MoA. Furthermore, tendering and
contracting will be evaluated by PARC and the local committees to ensure the
best value of money for the proposed activities. Finally, PARC will implement
