 Germany’s Federal Foreign Office, through the Special Fund for Emergency and Rehabilitation Activities - Anticipatory Action Window, contributed USD 1 million to FAO's project entitled "Anticipatory actions for the protection of agricultural livelihoods exposed to the impact of the El Niño phenomenon in Colombia". The objective of the project was to mitigate the impact of forecast drought linked to El Niño by protecting the agricultural livelihoods of Indigenous Peoples through anticipatory actions. A total of 61 339 people, of whom 23 633 women, benefitted from activities such as the rehabilitation of water supply systems, the distribution of inputs and animal treatment, enabling them to safeguard their livelihoods and resilience against the impact of climate shocks.
