Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner. The Household Survey for Evaluation of Livelihood and Food Security Initiatives in Lower and Middle Juba Regions, Somalia, 2014 data were collected by Oxfam GB as part of the organisation's Global Performance Framework. Under this framework, a small number of completed or mature projects are selected at random each year for an evaluation of their impact, known as an Effectiveness Review. This data was used to evaluate the impact of the 'Community Driven Livelihood and Food Security Initiatives (CLFSI)' project which took place in the Lower and Middle Juba Regions of South Somalia between 2010 and 2013. The overall objective of the project was to promote competitive economic initiatives in the regions. Specifically, the project aimed at strengthening the productive capacity of households by improving their production systems ensuring sustainable food security, income generation through food production, rehabilitation of productive assets (e.g. dykes and canals), and asset transfer together with rehabilitation of livestock market. Income-generating activities focused on supporting small-scale traders with cash and support to small household business. The review adopted a quasi-experimental impact evaluation design, which involved comparing households that had been supported by the project with households in neighbouring communities that had similar characteristics in 2009 (as reported in recall questions). In total, 200 project participants from 11 regions and 434 non-participants from 11 regions were interviewed. Anonymisation: Respondent names have been removed. Community names have been removed and replaced with codes in random order. The following variables have been recoded so as to prevent unique cases that may allow identification of the respondents: household size (capped at 11 members), age (binned in 5-year intervals), size of house (capped at 4+ huts), material of house roof (combined categories) and principal livelihood of household (combined categories). Main Topics: Impact of strengthening production systems to improve food security in Somalia. Simple random sample Purposive selection/case studies In the beneficiary group, sample was randomly selected from households from the project area that r Face-to-face interview

Seeds are a main source of all food and agricultural production. On-farm seed practices have been responsible for the management, conservation and renewal of genetic diversity in agriculture. Scientifically supported breeding started only in the 20th century. This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 633571. No

Tutkimus kartoittaa maaseudun merkityksiä ja tulevaisuutta. Sen tehtävänä on antaa tietoa suomalaisten maaseutukäsityksistä. Tutkimus on jatkoa Sitran "Maamerkit – maaseudun merkitykset" -ohjelmassa vuosina 2009 ja 2011 toteutetuille maaseutubarometreille. Vastaajilta kysyttiin, miten vahvasti maaseutu ja vastaavasti kaupunki tuovat mieleen erilaisia asioita. Kysyttiin myös, minkälainen alue vastaajalle tulee ensiksi mieleen sanasta maaseutu sekä lueteltiin erilaisia alueita ja kysyttiin, miten ne vastaavat mielikuvaa maaseudusta. Haluttiin myös tietää kuinka voimakkaana vastaaja kokee maaseutu/kaupunki -identiteetin. Lisäksi haluttiin tietoja vastaajan asunnon, vapaa-ajan asunnon ja työpaikan sijainneista ja kysyttiin, millainen olisi vastaajalle mieluisin vakinainen asuinpaikka. Kyselyssä kartoitettiin myös vastaajien monipaikkaisuutta selvittämällä liikkumista eri ympäristöissä. Tiedusteltiin, aikooko vastaaja muuttaa lähitulevaisuudessa maaseutumaisempaan tai kaupunkimaisempaan ympäristöön. Lisäksi kysyttiin erilaisten paikkojen merkityksistä ihmisille ja miten tämä ilmenee heidän elämässään. Esitettiin myös erilaisia hyvän elämän elementtejä ja kysyttiin, kuinka ne toteutuvat vastaajan kohdalla. Kysyttiin, mitä maaseutu merkitsee vastaajalle tänä päivänä ja mitä maaseutu todennäköisesti tulee merkitsemään 10 vuoden kuluttua. Kysyttiin myös vastaajan mielipidettä maaseudun muuttumisen merkityksestä itselle ja koko Suomelle. Vastaajille esitettiin myös tulevaisuudenkuvia maaseudusta ja kysyttiin, mitkä niistä parhaiten vastaisivat toiveita maaseudun tulevaisuudesta ja miten he uskovat asioiden olevan vuonna 2025. Esitettiin myös väittämiä siitä, mitä maaseudulle pitäisi tehdä tulevaisuudessa, mitkä ovat polttavimmat kehittämistarpeet ja mistä voisi karsia. Esitettiin myös maaseutuun liittyvää yrittäjyyttä koskevia väittämiä ja tiedusteltiin toimiiko vastaaja tai onko hän ryhtymässä yrittäjäksi maaseudulla ja maaseudun mahdollisuuksia hyödyntäen. Taustamuuttujina olivat sukupuoli, ikä, koulutus, ammatti/asema, talouden rakenne, kotona asuvien lasten ikä, talouden koko, talouden bruttotulot sekä paikkakuntatietoja. The survey studied public opinion and experiences of the countryside as well as beliefs about the significance, development and future of rural areas in Finland. The survey is a follow-up on the barometers conducted by the Landmarks Programme in 2009 and 2011. First, the respondents were asked how firmly they connected certain qualities and issues to the countryside and to urban areas (e.g. good life, environmentally-friendly lifestyle). Images of the countryside were charted by asking what kinds of places corresponded to their view of the countryside and what kind of areas they saw as rural (e.g. holiday villages in rural areas, rural population centres, nature areas, rural areas dominated by agricultural areas). The experience of urban/rural identity was examined with questions on whether the respondents thought themselves as city or rural residents and how important this identity was. They were asked in what kind of a neighbourhood their homes, holiday homes, workplaces and most important childhood environment were located, and in what kind of a neighbourhood they would prefer to live. The respondents were also asked about their habits of spending time in different kinds of neighbourhoods or places during their working time, weekends and holidays. Views were probed on the intentions to move to a more urban or rural setting within the following ten years. Reasons for the importance of different types of places (e.g. friends in other regions, spending holidays, telework) were studied. Opinions were also surveyed on how well the respondents had achieved certain states of things in their own life (e.g. life without stress, sustainable lifestyle, physical health, meaningful job). One topic covered the significance of the countryside in the lives of the respondents at the time of the survey and what they believed the significance would be in ten years' time. Further questions explored their beliefs about whether the significance of rural areas would grow or diminish in Finland, and what they would like or believed the countryside to be like in 2025. The respondents were also presented with a number of statements relating to the countryside, its image, development and significance. Opinions on how rural areas should be or should not be developed were examined, as well as opinions on rural economics and the countryside as a business environment. Background variables included the respondent's year of birth, gender, highest education, political party preference in parliamentary elections, attitudes towards new products, region (NUTS3) and major region (NUTS2) of residence, type of municipality, economic activity and occupational status, household composition, number and age of children living at home, annual gross income of the household, and type of housing.
