BookletEvaluation reportTerminal evaluation of the project "Sustainable management of agrobiodiversity and vulnerable ecosystems recuperation in Peruvian Andean regions through Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems approach"
Project code: GCP/PER/045/GFF, GEF ID: 9092
2025Also available in:
The project aimed to conserve in situ and sustainably use global importance agrobiodiversity through the preservation of traditional agricultural systems, the integrated management of resources, and the maintenance of ecosystem services in 13 districts of five regions in southern Peru. The evaluation identified that the project has high relevance at the national level and for grassroots communities but is less evident at the subnational level. It contributed to the establishment of a model of in situ conservation of agrobiodiversity, with the recognition of two new agrobiodiversity zones and a conservation area. The project faced challenges such as the COVID-19 pandemic, political crises and continuous government turnover. These factors and the implementation model affected the project's execution. The sustainability of the project may be threatened by the potential loss of institutional capacity and memory, and the lack of formal coordination mechanisms of public institutions and guarantees of long-term financing. The recommendations focus on consolidating initiatives for the sustainability of the achieved results, making it vital to create formal coordination mechanisms and implementation plans, and to sensitize the new departmental authorities. -
Book (series)Evaluation reportTerminal evaluation of the project "Sustainable management of mountainous forest and land resources under climate change conditions
GCP/KYR/010/GFF
2022Also available in:
No results found.The project was designed to address the following interlinked barriers preventing sustainable land and forest management outcomes and building resilience to climate change in Kyrgyz mountain ecosystems: inadequate legal framework for sustainable forest and land management, inadequate land tenure reforms, outdated approaches to sustainable forest and land management, and limited capacity of local institutions. The project’s overall objective is to enhance the enabling environment in the forestry and agricultural sectors and sustain the flow of ecosystem services, including enhancement of carbon stocks in forests and agro-ecosystems through the sustainable management and enhanced productivity of mountainous silvo-agro-pastoral ecosystems, and to improve productivity and mountain livelihoods in the Kyrgyz Republic. Overall, the evaluation rated the project as “moderately satisfactory”, with several examples of positive new approaches introduced by the project into forestry, agriculture and pasture management. The evaluation included specific recommendations not only to FAO, but also to the national forestry service. One of the innovative recommendations is to revisit the project sites in five to ten years to check certain success factors, such as the tree survival rates.

Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureTargeting for rural poverty reduction interventions 2021
Also available in:
No results found.Rural poverty reduction is one of FAO’s global goals, and is intrinsically linked with eradicating hunger, food insecurity and malnutrition, and fostering the sustainable management and utilization of natural resources. In an effort to reach these objectives, FAO has developed a series of briefs on how to conduct poverty analysis and how to address poverty more effectively in projects and programmes. This series represents a simple quick start guide for project formulators to assist them in conducting poverty analysis and addressing poverty considerations in project formulation. The series is composed of five briefs:- Poverty Measurement for Rural Areas: Defines poverty in the context of FAO’s work, explains the basic steps behind measuring poverty using both monetary and multidimensional approaches, and provides a list of potential data sources.
- Developing Rural Poverty Profiles for FAO Projects: Defines poverty profiles and explains their use in the context of FAO’s work.
- Using Poverty Maps for FAO Projects: Explains how poverty maps can support poverty-reduction interventions and provides an overview of poverty mapping techniques.
- Targeting for Rural Poverty Reduction Interventions: Defines the targeting process, outlines targeting mechanisms, and provides guidance on how to select targeting mechanisms for different circumstances.
- Poverty Reduction in the Project Cycle: A guide for project formulators: Provides practical guidance for project formulators on how to integrate poverty considerations during project formulation.
