GAFSP Partners with WFP to Enhance Food Security in HirShabelle

HirShabelle is in collaboration with the Global Agriculture and Food Security Program (GAFSP) and the World Food Programme (WFP) to enhance food security and governance structures in the regional state.

This collaboration represents a significant step towards resilience and sustainability.

These efforts likely include increased support for cooperatives, which involves strengthening local cooperatives to improve agricultural productivity, market access, and income for farmers.

Secondly, their collaboration will lead to improved capacity building, which entails empowering communities with skills and resources to manage their food systems effectively.

The partnership is likely to help create more resilient communities through implementing programs aimed at mitigating the impact of climate shocks and ensuring long-term food security.

Collaboration between HirShabelle, GAFSP, and WFP will improve governance by enhancing local frameworks to support equitable resource distribution and decision-making.

This partnership aligns with broader national and regional goals of combating hunger, fostering economic stability, and creating self-reliant communities.
