PROJECT CONTEXT:
Under the project “Support to sustainable agriculture and climate-smart for vulnerable families in Iraq” CESVI is seeking a consultant to conduct a preliminary analysis for the identification ofmarket demand in the project areas (Semel, Zakho and Bardarash). The project aims to improve the availability of and access to food for Syrian refugee families and vulnerable IDPs who are unable to meet their basic needs through the creation/strengthening of agricultural and livestock income generating activities (AGRs), distribution of agricultural inputs and training in the production of high-nutrient crops and/or livestock, drought-adapted farming practices and food preservation techniques.
The project activities will support the integration of food-secure households into local agricultural value chains, increasing their access to markets and services and enabling them to engage in income-generating productive activities in order to achieve self-sufficiency to meet food needs. The project will also support farmers who own small agricultural businesses that have recently lost or reduced their livelihoods as a result of the pandemic, climate change and competition with foreign products.
Particular attention will be paid to small businesses with a higher potential for employing women and persons with disabilities and to the difficulties encountered by the most vulnerable groups in accessing the labour market in the agricultural sector.
