Book (series)Terminal evaluation of the project "Strengthening agroclimatic monitoring and information systems to improve adaptation to climate change and food security in the Lao People's Democratic Republic"
Project code: GCP/LAO/021/LDF - GEF ID 5462
2024Also available in:
No results found.The project focused on technical innovation to strengthen efforts to build climate resilience of smallholder producers. The project, beyond original expectations, generated an agroecological zoning modelling tool (pyAEZ) of global relevance. The project achieved many of its outputs, some of which went beyond the indicators and exceeded targets for coverage. Securing co-financing (and engaging other actors in complementary efforts) was very successful. The network of weather stations was improved along with establishing a laboratory for calibration of the sensors of the automatic weather station (AWS), and the Lao Climate Service for Agriculture (LaCSA), a decision-making tool developed by the project to provide agrometeorological advisories and early warnings. The project was found to have made a significant contribution to strengthening agroclimatic monitoring and information systems to improve adaptation to climate change and food security. -

Book (series)Terminal evaluation of the project “Climate Adaptation in Wetlands Areas in the Lao People's Democratic Republic”
Project code: GCP/LAO/022/LDF - GEF ID: 5489
2024Also available in:
No results found.This project supports communities in wetland areas of the Lao People’s Democratic Republic in efforts to reduce pressure on wetlands area, improve management and stewardship and diversify livelihoods. The project outcomes were consistent with national policies and plans, and it was successful in a range of wetland conservation efforts. Evidence-based planning and mainstreaming of climate change adaptation, disaster risk management and wetland conservation has been conducted in regular planning exercises, training of government staff and participating communities. RAMSAR site steering committees have been established. A major threat continues to be encroachment of wetlands for rice cultivation and use of chemical fertilizer and pesticides in rice fields.
