In September 2013, Oxfam GB in Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia started a 4-year EC-funded advocacy project on "Improving Regional Food Security through National Strategies and Small Holder Production in the South Caucasus" (hereafter the Project). Central to the Project is to facilitate the publication of gender sensitive Food Security (FS) and Nutrition Strategies (hereafter the Strategies) in above mentioned countries. In each country, these Strategies will be formulated and developed within multi-stakeholder Working Groups involving Project partners, government, the private sector, NGOs, MFIs, research institutions, and representatives of small-holder farmers. These strategies, derived from the experience of these stakeholders, regional learning, and from the lessons of countries that have gone through similar processes will identify and include many of the elements required for comprehensive and effective approaches to food security and nutrition going forward over the next five to ten years.
