    Terminal evaluation of the project "Strengthening the adaptive capacity to climate change in the fisheries and aquaculture sector of Chile

    The project “Strengthening the adaptive capacity to climate change in the fisheries and aquaculture sector of Chile”, with support from the Global Environment Facility (GEF), sought to reduce the vulnerability and increase the adaptive capacity to climate change in the fisheries and aquaculture sector of Chile. Implemented in four remote coves, the project was geared towards coastal communities through high quality in-person participatory capacity building sessions, raising awareness about topics such as productive diversification, adaptation to climate change, aquaculture and tourism. Despite there being several changes in civil servants and government authorities, as well as certain delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic and civil unrest in the country, the project managed to progress towards the formulated objective, was relevant to the actual situation and suited to the needs of the beneficiaries. Lessons learned were also generated to improve the formulation and management of this type of project in the future. Notably, the evaluation found that climate change adaptation workshops have a high potential for replicability across different geographic settings in the region.

    The evaluation aimed to assess the progress made towards the impact and sustainability of project outcomes and to detect any design and implementation issues that need to be addressed before scaling up the project’s outputs. The evaluation applied a mixed methodological approach to data collection (quantitative and qualitative). It included structured document analysis and review of primary and secondary sources of information, semi-structured interviews with key informants and direct beneficiaries, focus group (FG) discussions with the community members, and direct site observations (site visits). The evaluation findings indicated significant achievements related to building the capacity and raising the awareness of national and provincial level stakeholders about the importance of the biodiversity conservation agenda and sustainable management of steppe ecosystems in the country. The project facilitated the creation of methodological and technical documents and guidelines as well as strategic and action plans, which serve as valuable and practical tools for the Government of Türkiye to facilitate and replicate further interventions in sustainable management of the steppe ecosystem and biodiversity in the country.

    Terminal evaluation of the project “Mainstreaming conservation and valuation of critically endangered species and ecosystems in development-frontier production landscapes in the regions of Arica y Parinacota and Biobío”
    Project code: GCP/CHI/033/GFF - GEF ID: 5429

    Also available in:

    The project "Mainstreaming conservation and valuation of critically endangered species and ecosystems in development-frontier production landscapes in the regions of Arica y Parinacota and Bibío", executed between 2016 and 2022, aimed to incorporate conservation criteria for four critically endangered species into the management of the main development-frontier production landscapes of the Arica and Parinacota and Biobío regions. The evaluation results highlight the project's high relevance to the Government of Chile by aligning with national environmental priorities. In addition to promoting the development of public policy instruments focused on the knowledge and protection of the Arica hummingbird, Darwin's fox, the huemul, and the queule (strategies, plans, ordinances, monitoring protocols, and educational material), the project made significant efforts in training and raising awareness about the importance of biodiversity among government officials, farmers and the school population. The efforts in implementing good agrosilvopastoral practices on pilot farms are also noteworthy.
