Evaluation of FAO’s Response Programme in South Sudan

mei/16









This is an evaluation of FAO’s programme in South Sudan between December 2013 and December 2015. It fulfills FAO’s corporate commitment to evaluate its L3 emergency operations: South Sudan had been declared an L3 emergency in February 2014, which lasted until the end of 2015. This is predominantly a learning-oriented evaluation, looking back at FAO’s work in the last two years in order to provide guidance for the future strategic direction of the programme. It also fulfils an accountability f unction.

The evaluation methods comprised: (1) a Participatory Impact Assessment (PIA) of FAO’s Emergency Livelihood Response Programme (ELRP) conducted between April and May 2015, (2) key informant interviews with FAO staff and stakeholders in South Sudan, also in Rome, Nairobi and Addis Ababa between September and December 2015, (3) an online survey of FAO’s Implementing Partners (IPs) completed in November 2015, (4) a dedicated case study of the cash transfer component of the ELRP, (5) a d esk-based review of FAO’s fisheries programme under the ELRP, and (6) documentation review. Apart from the PIA, the fieldwork for the evaluation was carried out in late November/ early December 2015 by a six-person team, in Juba and five states in South Sudan. The evaluation adopted a utilization-oriented approach, involving members of the FAO South Sudan (FAOSS) office from the outset. An early list of action points was produced before the full report had been drafted, a number of which had alr eady been implemented by FAOSS by the time the final report has been published.

    Years of conflict and significant economic deterioration have left South Sudan in the grip of serious food insecurity, with women and children the most vulnerable. Despite the recent peace agreement, extreme levels of acute food insecurity are expected to persist in areas of continued conflict and poor harvests, calling for immediate and unhindered food assistance and careful monitoring. For 2019, FAO requires USD 75 million to assist 4.8 million people to protect their livelihoods and increase their resilience to shocks.

    The FAOSTAT emissions database is composed of several data domains covering the categories of the IPCC Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sector of the national GHG inventory. Energy use in agriculture is additionally included as relevant to emissions from agriculture as an economic production sector under the ISIC A statistical classification, though recognizing that, in terms of IPCC, they are instead part of the Energy sector of the national GHG inventory. FAO emissions estimates are available over the period 1961–2018 for agriculture production processes from crop and livestock activities. Land use emissions and removals are generally available only for the period 1990–2019. This analytical brief focuses on overall trends over the period 2000–2018.

    FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022
    The FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 was endorsed by FAO Council in June 2022. This new strategy replaces the previous strategy from 2017 to better FAO's climate action with the Strategic Framework 2022-2031, and other FAO strategies that have been developed since then. The Strategy was elaborated following an inclusive process of consultation with FAO Members, FAO staff from headquarters and decentralized offices, as well as external partners. It articulates FAO's vision for agrifood systems by 2050, around three main pillars of action: at global and regional level, at country level, and at local level. The Strategy also encourages key guiding principles for action, such as science and innovation, inclusiveness, partnerships, and access to finance.
