The contract is part of the project "Restoration of Peace, Livelihoods and Economic Cycles in Anbar, Iraq" (RePLECA) which started in October 2019 and will last until June 2023.

The project is implemented in the Governorate of Anbar in western Iraq. Anbar is the country's largest governorate in terms of area but remains sparsely populated outside of the urban centres of Falludja and Ramadi. Historically, agriculture has been the main provider of jobs and livelihoods for the population. However, the governorate still suffers from security threats by remnants of the so-called "Islamic State" (IS) and is affected by a wide-spread destruction of infrastructure and large-scale internal displacement of the population.

RePLECA seeks to stabilise and improve rural livelihoods for the most vulnerable groups in Anbar Governorate by rehabilitating productive infrastructure, providing agricultural inputs, carrying out capacity development, facilitating access to public services and supporting local peace processes. The project"s goal is to improve livelihood prospects in the agricultural sector, following a value chain-oriented approach from seed to consumption. In addition, the project aims to contribute to building peaceful coexistence between and within communities.

The project aims to achieve its goal through three interlinked outputs. Output A aims to improve the yields of small-scale farms and farming households. It does so by focusing on improving access to productive infrastructure and services, building the productive capacity of the target groups and improving their degree of collaboration and organization. The objective of Output B is to improve employment prospects in the upstream and downstream sectors of the agriculture and food industry through a combination of capacity building measures and direct support to the establishment of businesses.

The objective of Output C is to support social cohesion through the strengthening of state structures and of civil society organisations active in peace promotion, as well as by strengthening participatory and conflict resolution processes in agricultural organisations and producer communities.
