dc.description.abstractThe East Africa Community (EAC) is the regional intergovernmental organization of the Republics of Kenya, Uganda, the United Republic of Tanzania, the Republic of Rwanda and the Republic of Burundi with its headquarters in Arusha, Tanzania. In 2011, the EAC Food Security Action Plan (2011-2015) was adopted by the 9th Extraordinary Summit of the EAC Heads of State. One of the key recommendations of the action plan was the development of the EAC Food and Nutrition Security Policy (FNSP). The FNSP helps the region to implement the provisions of the EAC Treaty (1999) Chapter 18 Article 110 which states: “Harmonize food supply, nutrition and food security policies and strategies” relating to stimulating agricultural development, eliminating hunger, eradicating poverty, and ensuring food security. This firms up cross-sector linkages necessary for the implementation of chapters 11, 12, 14, 18, 21, 22, 25, and 26, inter alia of the 1990 EAC Treaty.
