  • Workshop 3: Enhancing the welfare of PSNP households: Multifaceted evidence around health, gender, and livelihoods

The Strengthen PSNP Institutions and Resilience (SPIR II) Resilience Food Security Activity (RFSA) in Ethiopia is a five-year program (2021-2026) that supports implementation of the fifth phase of the Productive Safety Net Programme (PSNP5) in Amhara, Oromia and Tigray regions and provides complementary gender-sensitive livelihood, nutrition, and climate resilience activities to strengthen the program and expand its impacts. The International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) is leading the SPIR II learning agenda in close collaboration with implementation partners.

The SPIR II learning agenda investigates strategies to reduce extreme poverty and build household resilience through formative studies, impact evaluations and related research. During the project IFPRI hosts learning events with the primary objective of sharing results from studies conducted as part of the SPIR II learning activities among stakeholders to optimize the design and implementation of ongoing and future social protection programming in Ethiopia. The first event was held in 2023.

The 2024 workshops will showcase results from two impact evaluation studies as well as results from the research funded through a competitive grant program.
