IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti IGAD / REFORM Regional Food Security and Risk Management Programme for Eastern and Southern Africa Consultative Workshop on Food Security Policy Policy Measures for Food Security and Prioritisation in the IGAD Region Thomas Lines IGAD Conference Hall Djibouti, November 12 th, 2009

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti Food Security: a definition ‘Food security exists when all people, at all times, have physical and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life.’ - FAO Food Summit, 1996

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti Food security needs 1. Availability of food 2. Access to food 3. Measures to address food insecurity (when it arises)

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti Food security needs 1. Availability of food Production Trade 2. Access to food Social protection 3. Measures to address food insecurity (when it arises) Chronic (long-term) Transitory (short-term)

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti Food security needs Note: Item 3 on the last slide (Measures to address food insecurity) is understood in some circles to be the whole of food security policy.

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti IGAD region: annual cereal balances* * Includes Eritrea Production – consumption (‘000 tons) -1,787+4,114+1, As % of consumption

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti IGAD region: annual cereal balances* * Includes Eritrea Production – consumption (‘000 tons) -1,787+4,114+1, As % of consumption Net balance as % of requirements Food aid as % of requirements

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti Points of comparison Food self-sufficiency in the UK (approx): Late 1930s: 45-50% Early 1950s: 55-60% Early 1990s: 80% Mid-2000s: 70% Food security is an issue of: Poverty General security

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti Points of comparison Recent success stories: Japan, South Korea, China and India All developed successful policies for food security as a prerequisite for industrial advance Agriculture precedes other development in time

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti Chronic and transitory food insecurity Governments wanted to produce enough food for the population but needed foreign exchange for development  agricultural exports Agricultural policy was also neglected for 20 years

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti Chronic and transitory food insecurity Donors felt these were government issues gave little aid for agriculture in recent years but food aid for emergencies for transitory food insecurity  Repetitive provision of food aid

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti Policy reassessment This affects: 3A: Measures to address (chronic) food insecurity 3B: Disaster risk management 1A: Food production 2: Social protection 1B: Cross-border trade 3A : Food reserves

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti 1A: Agricultural policy Policies (mostly) under way Djibouti: Plan of Action for the Primary Sector Ethiopia: Rural Economic Development and Food Security element of PASDEP Kenya: Agricultural Sector Development Strategy Sudan (exc. South): Agricultural Revival Programme Uganda: The Plan for Modernisation of Agriculture (2001) is being reassessed

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti 1B: Agricultural trade (Proposals) Can be formal or informal Natural market areas (“market sheds”) go across frontiers Help food surpluses to meet needs in deficit areas, with: Production Physical facilities: storage, roads Official authorisation and border facilitation Djibouti’s policy: grow food on land in other countries

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti 2: Social protection Policies (mostly) under way Djibouti: Rural access and micro-finance under the PNSA Ethiopia: Protection of Basic Services; FSP measures Kenya: Arid Lands programme, Hunger Safety Net; overarching policy under discussion Sudan: Zakat Uganda: Several initiatives under discussion

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti What is Social Protection anyway? Used in the REFORM project in a broad sense: Any policy which leads to a reduction of economic or social vulnerability – and therefore food insecurity No matter what the means

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti 3A: Measures for chronic food insecurity Policies (mostly) under way Djibouti: Multi-faceted National Food Security Programme Ethiopia: Second phase of Food Security Programme (four components) Kenya: “Food Security in Kenya” paper lists the main measures Sudan: Conflict resolution, e.g. Comprehensive Peace Agreement Uganda: Much of it already achieved through conflict resolution. Some gaps remain elsewhere.

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti 3A: Food reserves Policies (mostly) under way Djibouti: Strategic food stockpile planned under the PNSA Ethiopia: Strategic Reserve exists and is in use Kenya: Strategic Food Reserve - due for expansion Sudan: Strategic Reserve Corp. being expanded Uganda: None exists

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti 3A: Food reserves All the existing national reserves need to be strengthened They would be stronger still if put on a regional basis Purposes: 1. Food security Compare India: does not depend on external food aid 2. Food price stabilisation Helps farmers by reducing economic risk Adds to social protection of consumers

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti 3B: Disaster Risk Management Policies planned or under way Djibouti: National programme under inter- ministerial committee, but capacity is limited Ethiopia: Policy being overhauled under Disaster Management & Food Security Sector Kenya: National Disaster Management Policy in draft form Sudan: Coordinated by Humanitarian Aid Cssn; integrated policy under development Uganda: Disaster Risk Management policy in draft form

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti Regional role Priorities: Cross-border trade Regional food reserve Cooperation over DRM Meteorological cooperation exists under ICPAC (IGAD)

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti Summary Policy hierarchy: 1. Agricultural policy – for food availability Production Trade: domestic and regional 2. Social protection – for access to food 3. Food security interventions – when needed Chronic – long-term development Transitory – short-term emergency measures

IGAD Secretariat, Djibouti The End Thank you!
