Britain’s Department for International Development has set aside £30 million to address poverty and food security in Zimbabwe. The four-year programme will be managed by the Food and Agricultural Organisation and is expected to benefit 300 000 people. The programme will aim to: boost short-term employment opportunities through safety-net programmes that will help women and men improve nutrition and invest in their farms; improve irrigation infrastructure; link smallholder farmers with markets; provide enabling environments through policy support and encouraging public and private investments; and increase agricultural production and productivity of nutritious foods.
