13 October 2005, Kendhikulhudhoo, Maldives - FAO staff members assisting in the record-keeping at a distribution center. FAO, in collaboration with the Government of the Maldives, is working to restore livelihoods to tusnami-affected farmers with agricultural inputs.
FAO Project OSRO/MDV/503/JPN: Assistance for affected rural communities in Maldives (- TSU - MDV-05/ER/I02). The long-term objective of this emergency project is to assist the Government of Maldives, especially the Agricultural Division of the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Marine Resources, in its efforts to rapidly re-establish sustainable income-generating agriculture activities destroyed by the tsunami, thereby enabling the poor and vulnerable islanders to rehabilitate their income opportunities and respond to the first needs required to achieve food security.
