Question 16: Assume that as a Programme Planning and Management professional at Oxfam, an international development NGO, you are asked to visit and gather a first impression of the status of Koinadugu District in the North of Sierraleone. You find that Agriculture is the main livelihood of more than 84% of the district population. A high proportion of households in the district are involved in cash crop production such as cocoa and coffee. Growing rice and vegetables are among the agricultural activities, while a handful of families are engaged in cattle rearing. During the harvest season, hiring and exchange of labour, are also important sources of household incomes. About 49% of the population are poor which you document as a key challenge of the roughly 409,372 people. At your return to the OXFAM office in the capital Free Town, you file a report whose response from the country director is that you should design a project to intervene in the challenge under OXFAMS programmes in Sierraleone.
