Libya faces an unprecedented and protracted internal crisis caused by a civil war that affects the lives of millions of people in the country, including local populations and migrants from numerous countries. Due to multiple crises since 2011, livelihoods have been heavily affected, especially in rural areas of the country. In order to understand the main impacts of the conflict on the agricultural sector and the people relying on it, the World Food Programme (WFP) decided to conduct an agriculture and livelihood needs assessment in the southern Fezzan region of Libya. This region remains extremely important for the country’s agricultural production and, due to its geographical position, hosts many migrants and Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), many of whom are employed in this sector. This study was conducted over a three-month period (December 2019 - February 2020) and consisted of data collection, analysis and report writing.
