Improved Food Security and Livelihoods for Conflict Affected IDPs Through Hydroponic Production in Zamzam IDP Camp in North Darfur, Sudan

Due to conflict, IDPs in Zamzam have limited access to land, water, nutritional food and income. IDPs have been living in the camp since 2014, with humanitarian funding gradually decreasing, but the levels of food insecurity and malnutrition remaining high. The proposed hydroponics project will provide IDPs with new ways of growing food and animal fodder for both own consumption and sale, thus improving their food and nutrition status as well as offering them a much needed income source.
