Food security and Livelihoods (FSL) including food and cash assistance, is World Vision Somalia’s largest sector, accounting for more than a third of the Country Office’s portfolio.

We focus on building sustainable livelihoods and improving household food security in agropastoral areas by utilizing existing resources, such as accessing rivers for irrigation and providing agricultural training and materials to improve their irrigation and farming practices. We also implement programs aimed at increasing income and assets, strengthening food systems, and improving access to finance, credit, and markets.
