Phase two of the project responds to the current situation and needs of the population. AVSI will expand its interventions to sub-district of Nimrud, mainly villages around the Abzakh water canal in Al-Hamdaniya district, two subdistricts of Tel Kaif and Alqosh. AVSI will also implement interventions in ten villages in Sinjar district. In Duhok, ASET II will work with Yazidi IDPs and the host community in Sumail and Shekan sub-districts. AVSI will also continue to support the Association of Farmers, Livestock owners, and Technicians (AFLT) in its capacity to provide access to credit and services to farmers. AVSI established the AFLT during the implementation of the first PRM project. 

AVSI will help the local community restore their capacity to provide agricultural and breeding services, focusing on the value chains of sheep and calve breeding, mushrooms, flower, and ornamental plants in Duhok, and poultry, cows, olives, and honey in Nineveh. The project will target women as potential earners. It will also provide gender-sensitive life skills training to farmers and their families.

Designed through extensive consultation with local actors in Qaraqosh, including hundreds of farming families, the project will reach returnees, host communities, and IDPs.
