Book (series)Evaluation reportTerminal evaluation of the project "Disposal of persistent organic pollutants and obsolete pesticides and implementation of sound pesticides management in Benin
GCP/BEN/056/GFF - GEF ID: 4756
2021Also available in:
This report presents the final evaluation results of the project “Disposal of persistent organic pollutants and obsolete pesticides and implementation of sound pesticides management in Benin” (GCP/BEN/056/GFF), implemented by FAO and the Government of Benin from March 2015 to September 2021. The project is consistent with the country and its partners’ priorities. The project was able to implement the farmer field school approach, integrated production and pest management (IPPM) and relevant partnerships. Nevertheless, gaps in pesticide life cycle management were identified and corrective measures proposed. Regulatory framework has been strengthened as well as national capacities in decontaminating polluted sites, securing obsolete pesticides and persistant organic pollutants, analysing polluted soil samples, recycling and managing empty pesticide containers, and testing and adopting IPPM-based alternative techniques and systems. -
BookletProgramme / project reportTerminal evaluation of the project “Disposal of Persistent Organic Pollutants and Obsolete Pesticides and Strengthening of the Sound Management of Pesticides in Cameroon”
Project code: GCP/CMR/031/GFF, GEF ID: 4641
2025Also available in:
The GEF-funded GCP/CMR/031/GFF project was implemented by FAO and the Government of Cameroon between 2015 and 2023, with the objective of eliminating and controlling risks to the environment, agri-food systems, and population health related to the mismanagement and use of chemical pesticides and empty packaging. The evaluation found that the project is highly relevant and coherent, while its effectiveness and efficiency are moderately satisfactory, and its sustainability and impact are moderately unlikely. This rather mixed performance stems from the factors explained in the report. The evaluation recommends supporting the finalization of initiated activities and continuing capacity building for stakeholders according to the proposed modalities. It should also support the government's efforts to control pesticide lifecycle management costs and develop a more significant project or interventions in this area. The evaluation drew two useful lessons for future interventions.

Book (stand-alone)Technical bookGlobal Forest Resources Assessment 2020
Main report
2020FAO completed its first assessment of the world’s forest resources in 1948. At that time, its major objective was to collect information on available timber supply to satisfy post-war reconstruction demand. Since then, the Global Forest Resources Assessment (FRA) has evolved into a comprehensive evaluation of forest resources and their condition, management and uses, covering all the thematic elements of sustainable forest management. This, the latest of these assessments, examines the status of, and trends in, forest resources over the period 1990–2020, drawing on the efforts of hundreds of experts worldwide. The production of FRA 2020 also involved collaboration among many partner organizations, thereby reducing the reporting burden on countries, increasing synergies among reporting processes, and improving data consistency. The results of FRA 2020 are available in several formats, including this report and an online database containing the original inputs of countries and territories as well as desk studies and regional and global analyses prepared by FAO. I invite you to use these materials to support our common journey towards a more sustainable future with forests. -
