Seed Fairs in Post-conflict Situations

Location: Uganda’s Lira and Oyam Districts and the Democratic Republic of Congo’s North and South Kivu Provinces

As part of its food security and livelihood programs, Action Against Hunger (ACF-USA)* has organized seed fairs in rural areas of Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo to provide farmers with seeds. The fairs have been widely spread and had a great number of direct beneficiaries and vendors, successfully facilitating local agricultural production.
