CORDAID FOOD SECURITY APPROACH
From conflict to markets
Our aim is to increase food security and improve rural farmers income within fragile contexts , with a
conflict sensitive approach
South Sudan, Afghanistan, Haiti, Congo DR, Sierra Leone, N-Uganda
Within these contexts we focus on restoring basic agricultural production and subsequently provide
support to farmers to grow towards market oriented production.

CORDAID THEMES
Representing the food (value) chain
We have aligned each of our themes with a stage in the food (value) chain.
Productivity
Post-harvest losses
Market Access
Problem: food shortages, high
food prices, increasing
population, rural poverty
Problem: 20-40% of harvested
food is lost before reaching the
customer
Problem: focus on subsistence
farming, low farmer income
Solution: increasing productivity
of small-scale farmers
Solution: reducing losses
through improved post-harvest
handling
DEN HAAG SEPTEMBER 2014
Solution: connecting farmers to
markets, stimulating
entrepreneurial mindset
