Prevent and respond to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on food security This project is part of a response contribution to the restrictive measures in Burkina Faso, caused by the pandemic, through the establishment of a cash transfer program as a social safety net and the re-establishment of agricultural and livestock production capacities. Thus, the target groups, estimated at 4,200 households, received a cash transfer and COVID-19 kits consisting of hand wash basins, soaps and masks. Agricultural producer households, involving 1,500 beneficiaries, received inputs such as cabbage, tomato, salad and onion seeds as well as small equipment. Thanks to the project, the 1,000 livestock farming households have started raising rabbits, poultry and cattle in order to strengthen their resilience in the face of a shock such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
