ITC Iraq: How do you improve food security in conflict-led, fragile settings? (ITC)
By Karla Solis Ruiz and Eric Buchot, International Trade Centre
ITC’s approach to developing markets…
The consequences of conflict are devastating, profound and long-lasting. Apart from the tragic loss of human life, they result in substantial losses of livelihoods, employment, and income.
Conflict exacerbates existing vulnerabilities, with even minor economic setbacks capable of pushing individuals and families to the brink of existence. In these settings, rebuilding markets is a critical step towards economic reconstruction and resilience, as well as for improving food security.
The International Trade Centre (ITC) has developed a comprehensive two-fold approach to rebuild these markets:
1. through supporting a conducive business environment in collaboration with governments and policymakers, and
2. by empowering local farmers and firms with the help of alliances.
