Agricultural Projects in the West Bank and Gaza Strip 2008
Agricultural Projects in the West Bank and Gaza Strip 2008 APIS Report January ‐ December 2008 1 Agricultural Projects in the West Bank and Gaza Strip 2008 The data for this report was retrieved from Table (i) Activity logged by members during the the Agriculture Project Information System campaign (27 August – 1 December 2008) (APIS), an information sharing and response monitoring tool for the agricultural sector, Type of activity Unit to which relevant non‐governmental Organization Login 302 organizations (NGOs), international Add New Project 56 organizations, community‐based Edit Project Profile 120 organizations, United Nations (UN) Agencies Add/Edit Activity 1262 and donors upload details of their projects and developments, creating a comprehensive picture of agricultural interventions in the West Bank and Gaza Strip (WBGS). This report is designed to assist the sector in developing policy, programmes, and projects. APIS is managed by the Ministry of Agriculture (MoA) of the Palestinian Authority (PA) and funded by the Spanish Cooperation (AECID). The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) acts as a technical adviser to the MoA and compiles analytical reports for the agricultural sector based on data uploaded in APIS. It is important to note that the MoA aims to have all agricultural‐related interventions stored in APIS, and uses this information in creating analytical reports for specific subsectors or areas in WBGS. The success of the database relies on its 169 members to enter project data; FAO and MoA launched a three‐month campaign in September 2008 among APIS members to encourage their active uploading of projects implemented in 2008 throughout the WBGS.
