Food Security Strategy

The Food Security Strategy (FSS) builds on the 1996 FSS that sought to understand the causes and effects of food insecurity in Ethiopia. The 2002 FSS subsequently aims to leverage the lessons learnt over the years to further address food insecurity issues. The overall objective is to ensure food security at household levels. It places priority on pastoral areas, environmental rehabilitation, the introduction of high-value crops, capacity building, and institutional strengthening.
