Project Detail:
The knowledge and support technical assistance (TA) for Green and Resilient Rural Recovery through Agri-Food System Transformation in the Asia and Pacific Region will (i) assess the impact of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) on the region's food and nutrition security and rural livelihood; and (ii) help developing member countries (DMCs) of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) reshape their visions and investments for a greener and resilient recovery of agri-food value chains and rural economies from disruptions caused by COVID-19, which have exacerbated rural poverty and food and nutrition insecurity, particularly among women and vulnerable groups. To identify innovative technological and investment pathways through research and development activities to transform the agri-food systems for stronger long-term food and rural livelihood security, the TA will support comprehensive assessments of agri-food value chains and rural livelihood vulnerability and opportunity, and help DMCs formulate evidence-based short-, medium-, and long-term policy and investment responses to strengthen food and nutrition security and to accelerate rural development for the COVID-19 recovery era and beyond
