Advancing Livelihoods through Support to Agricultural Markets in Dara’a (AAMD) was a three-year project that sought to improve the livelihoods and resiliency of actors in the agricultural value chain in non-regime-held areas of Southern Syria.

MSA conducted a rapid value chain analysis for dried fruit, jam and jellies, dried herbs, and pickled vegetables. The analysis helped AAMD prioritize interventions. MSA also trained NEF staff in how to identify relevant beneficiaries and how to conduct market research and provided technical assistance to help them design interventions in the focal markets.
