The Special Programme for Food Security (SPFS) helps farmers in low-income food-deficit countries (LIFDCs) increase food production and improve access to food in order to meet growing market demand and eradicate food insecurity. The SPFS uses a participatory approach that is environmentally responsible and socially equitable. The ultimate goal is to improve the living conditions of the poorest in rural areas, focusing particularly on women. Support to SPFS activities can range from assistance in the selection of a pilot zone, to conducting field visits, monitoring progress and writing reports on the status of SPFS activities in the country.
