The foundational element for FAO supported interventions to - at a minimum - do no harm, or to identify where they may contribute to sustaining peace, is to understand contextual dynamics and how they could interact with a proposed intervention. This is essentially what conflict-sensitive programming means. The challenge is to systematically determine conflict-sensitive interventions.
The Programme Clinic is a key step in operationalising this, being a structured participatory analysis designed to identify and integrate “conflict-sensitive” strategies into the design and implementation of FAO interventions. The objective is to minimise the risk of any negative or harmful impacts, as well as maximise any positive contributions towards strengthening and consolidating conditions for sustainable local peace. The Programme Clinic is designed in a way that empowers staff from the decentralised offices to facilitate the process effectively without needing to rely on external expert facilitation.
Conflict-sensitive programming support has been provided to FAO field offices in Iraq, Jordan, Kenya, Kyrgyzstan, Lebanon, Mauritania, Myanmar, Nigeria, Palestine, the Philippines, Somalia, the Sudan, the Syrian Arab Republic and Turkey, as well
as the Regional Office for the Near East and the Resilience Team in East Africa.
