OPERATIONS PLAN 2022

After 24 months of the COVID-19 pandemic, the global and national effects on livelihoods remain a constant burden for the most vulnerable who continue to be more severely affected as a result of the economic downturn resulting in high unemployment, business closures and lack of continued social support systems from government. As COVID-19 continues to be a relevant issue – with cases continuing to rise at exponential rates and the advent of a new and more contagious strain of virus - there is a continuing need to develop appropriate livelihoods programming to ensure the vulnerable, including the migrant population, are able to adapt effectively and continue to earn an income to meet their nutritional needs. The TTRCS will continue to develop new and innovative approaches to combat food insecurity and promote small enterprise and entrepreneurship opportunities for individuals and communities to provide essential items for their families. The Garden-to-Kitchen Initiative will be expanded to have wider reach - such as within urban areas with vertical farming and development of the Kitchen-to-Shelf programme - to expand the productivity of beneficiaries who can transition their produce from phase 1 in to sustainable products to sell at market.
