The Feed the Future Nigeria Rural Resilience Activity is a five- year, USAID-funded program which seeks to facilitate economic recovery and growth in vulnerable, conflict-affected areas by promoting systemic change in market systems. The Activity is part of the U.S. Government's global hunger and food security initiative aimed at giving families and communities in some of the world's poorest countries the freedom and opportunity to lift themselves out of food insecurity and malnutrition. The Activity also empowers vulnerable households, communities and systems to cope with current shocks and stresses and to be prepared to withstand future ones.
The Activity is implemented by Mercy Corps, with support from the International Fertilizer Development Center (IFDC) and Save the Children (SCI), primarily in the Northeast states of Adamawa, Borno, Gombe, and Yobe. Through the COVID-19 Mitigation Response Program, the Activity's operational areas also include Benue, Kebbi, Niger and Ebonyi states, as well as the Federal Capital Territory. The value chains supported by the Activity include maize, cowpea, groundnuts, rice production, and small ruminants. Additionally, the Ukraine-Russia Supplemental Cash Response Intervention is implemented in the primary locations of the Activity; Borno, Adamawa, Yobe and Gombe States.
Using market-led approaches, the Activity is moving over 600,000 individuals out of chronic vulnerability and poverty.
