The Democratic Republic of the Congo: Impact of conflict on agriculture, food security and livelihoods in Ituri
Marked by more than forty years of conflict, the province of Ituri, in the northeast of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, has experienced massive population displacement and recurrent violence. The basic needs of the population, notably access to food and the practice of agriculture, have been seriously impacted, harming the quality of life and worsening food insecurity. The goal of the Data in Emergencies (DIEM) team at the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) was to assess the impact of decades of violence on agriculture , food security and livelihoods in Ituri, and to propose recommendations for programming. This document is a summary of the DIEM-Impact report carried out following the August 2023 assessment.
