DocumentFinal Evaluation of “Progressive Control of Peste des Petits Ruminants in Pakistan”
Project - GCP/PAK/127/USA
2017Also available in:
No results found.In June 2017, the three and a half year project “Progressive Control of Peste des Petits Ruminants (PPR) in Pakistan” (GCP/PAK/127/USA) was completed. The purpose of this final evaluation is to analyse project achievements in their context, draw lessons for planners and recommend future actions that the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the Government of Pakistan should take to accelerate the progressive control of the PPR disease in the country. The context of th e project was that PPR, which is a fatal and economically damaging infectious disease of sheep and goats, was widespread and prevalent throughout the country at a time when Pakistan was joining a specific progressive control pathway (PCP) to limit and eventually eradicate the infection. The project’s expected overall impact was to improve the livelihoods of smallholder farmers by curtailing their losses from PPR. This would be achieved by implementing activities to curtail the spread of PPR in P akistan and mitigate its negative impacts on small ruminant-based livelihoods. Three main outputs were expected to contribute significantly to this: enhanced capacity for laboratory diagnosis and vaccine production; improved field surveillance for PPR; and demonstrations of effective control through vaccination in different animal husbandry systems and different locations of the country. The evaluation questions focused on whether the project successfully delivered its results in terms of improv ed diagnosis, surveillance and vaccination – the essential tools for Pakistan to begin its journey along the PCP. The evaluation team visited laboratories and veterinary offices, and interviewed and held discussions with veterinary staff and smallholder farmers in several provinces. This provided opportunity to gather information and opinion from these beneficiaries to correlate with reports and other information provided by the project. -

DocumentFinal evaluation of the project Development of a Framework for the Progressive Control of Foot and Mouth Disease in Pakistan
jun/15
2016Also available in:
No results found.This document presents findings of the final evaluation of the project “Development of a Framework for the Progressive Control of Foot-and-Mouth Disease in Pakistan”. The project ended in September 2015 after a four-year implementation period. The project budget was USD 7.3 million, which was spent by the end of the implementation period. The main donors were the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Federal and Provincial Governments of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. The pro ject was implemented by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), under number GCP/PAK/123/USA. The main project beneficiaries were strategically selected holders of buffaloes and cattle, and the public veterinary services at federal and provincial levels. The purpose of this final evaluation is to analyse project achievements in their context, draw lessons for planners, and identify good practices. While this report is of interest to all project stakeholders, it is espe cially useful for those addressing the control of Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) in Pakistan.
