    Long-term investments in building the capacity of technical staff in reporting countries were delivering clear benefits in terms of overall improvements in the quality of data being reported. New innovations introduced by the project were well received by the majority of country-level staff, bringing benefits such as improved efficiency in reporting, not only to the project itself, but to a range of other UN-focused conventions and agreements. The evaluation found that the project has clear comparative advantages and occupies a unique global niche, but differences with other forest resource assessment processes need further clarification and communication. The project has well established and functional systems of project management, but risk management practices need strengthening. The evaluation makes a series of recommendations to strengthen external communications, provide opportunities for interim reporting, integrate remote sensing in the context of country reporting, further strengthen capacity at country level, improve risk management practices and clarify the project outcome statement.

    Terminal evaluation of the project "Integrated Natural Resources Management in Degraded Landscapes in the Forest-Steppe Zone of Ukraine"
    Project code: GCP/UKR/004/GFF, GEF ID: 9813
    2024
    Also available in:

    The project’s objective was to promote the restoration of degraded landscapes in the forest-steppe and steppe zones of Ukraine by scaling up integrated natural resources management practices. The project was particularly relevant in terms of environmental degradation and climate change, as it took important first steps towards a land degradation neutrality monitoring system and integrated land use management plans in Ukraine, thus contributing to the enhanced integration of environmental policy into governance systems.Despite challenges caused by the ongoing war, the project’s activities and incentives stand out as good practices to replicate. The project significantly implemented successful capacity building, which led to increased information sharing and the development of draft laws on environmental protection. Numerous demonstration and capacity building activities on good conservation agricultural practices and enhanced technologies like no till drill, subsurface drip irrigation, crop rotation and sustainable shelterbelt management generated greater awareness. In addition, promising income generation activities for women were implemented successfully.
