Synopsis (short abstract) This is a project flyer for the project "Building global capacity to increase transparency in the forest sector (CBIT-Forest)”. CBIT-Forest is a two-year-long FAO project under the Capacity Building Initiative for Transparency (CBIT) trust fund of the Global Environment Facility (GEF). This global project will strengthen the capacities of developing countries to collect, analyse and disseminate forest-related data to meet the transparency requirements of the Paris Agreement. The aim of the project is to strengthen the institutional and technical capacities of developing countries to meet the requirements of the Enhanced Transparency Framework (ETF) of Article 13 of the Paris Agreement, and to contribute towards country efforts to track progress in mitigating and adapting to climate change, as laid out in their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs).

    The terminal evaluation serves a double purpose of (i) providing evidence on project performance (delivery of results) for accountability and transparency purposes, and (ii) promoting learning and knowledge sharing within FAO and GEF and among the global and national partners to strengthen the institutional and technical capacities of countries to meet the ETF requirements of the Paris Agreement. The evaluation used a combination of methods to gather information: document review, semi-structured interviews of pilot country representatives, other key stakeholders and CBIT-Forest Partners, and project management and Project Steering Committee members, as well as a brief survey targeted at pilot country partners. The evaluation used interviews and surveys to provide evidence on project performance, with particular emphasis on assessing the achievement of outcomes and impacts, value-added and benefits provided through participation in the CBIT-Forest project, sustainability, general value-added and lessons learned.
