The Cash Aid Helping Vulnerable Families in Tajikistan Through VPP

По оценкам ВПП и Продовольственной и сельскохозяйственной организации Объединенных Наций (ФАО), в 2023 году около 1,56 миллиона человек в Таджикистане столкнулись с острой нехваткой продовольствия, а почти 50 тысяч их них оказались в крайне тяжелой ситуации. Это представляет собой небольшое улучшение по сравнению с аналогичным периодом предыдущего года: доля населения, которому остро не хватает продовольствия, снизилась с 20 до 16 процентов.

Однако общины в Таджикистане по-прежнему страдают от последствий глобальных кризисов и высоких цен на продукты, отметил глава ВПП в стране Адхам Мусаллам.

По его словам, Программа сможет удовлетворить потребности людей, для которых вопрос недоедания стоит особенно остро, и при этом предоставить им возможность обеспечивать себя продовольствием в дальнейшем. 

Так, в 2024 и 2025 годах ВПП окажет поддержку около 15 тысячам домохозяйств, перечислив им денежные средства в обмен на усилия этих семей по созданию собственных производственных активов. Например, это может быть работа по развитию сельскохозяйственных угодий. Подобные активы призваны повысить финансовую стабильность более чем 24 тысяч домохозяйств, или в общей сложности 120 тысяч жителей Таджикистана.

«Мы работаем напрямую с мелкими фермерскими хозяйствами, особенно с женщинами и молодежью на местах, чтобы дать им возможность укрепить свое экономическое положение», – сказал Мусаллам.
