    Terminal evaluation of the project “Promoting climate-smart livestock management in the Dominican Republic”

    The project "Promoting Climate-Smart Livestock in the Dominican Republic", implemented between June 2018 and November 2022, has had the objective of "Mitigating climate change and restoring degraded lands through the promotion of climate-smart practices in the livestock sector." The evaluation estimates that, as a result of the implementation of the project, the convenience and importance of promoting climate-smart livestock practices as effective tools for mitigation and adaptation to climate change were installed on the government's climate and agricultural agenda. In addition, the project contributed to generating evidence on the positive effects that certain livestock practices have on climate change mitigation and adaptation and on the restoration of degraded lands. Finally, the contribution to the development of individual and institutional capacities in the Dominican State, technology transfer and adoption of good practices of beneficiary producers, among other achievements, is highlighted.

    Terminal evaluation of the project “AVACLIM: agroecology, ensuring food security and sustainable livelihoods while mitigating climate change and restoring land in dryland regions”

    The project aims to mainstream agroecology in drylands as a tool to address food insecurity, mitigate and adapt to climate change, and restore degraded land. Launched in October 2019, it was led by the Centre for Actions and International Achievements in partnership with the Environmental Monitoring Group, the Research Institute for Development, Both ENDS, and seven national organizations from Brazil, Morocco, Senegal, Burkina Faso, South Africa, Ethiopia and India. The project was found to be entirely relevant and coherent with national and global priorities in the fields of agricultural development, food security, natural resources preservation and climate change response. Overall, the strong integration of project activities into existing global and national dynamics on agroecology strengthened project effectiveness. It is likely that some of the achieved results will continue after project closure, but others require additional financial resources.

    Evaluation of "Promotion of climate-smart livestock management integrating reversion of land degradation and reduction of desertification risks in vulnerable provinces

    In Ecuador, the livestock sector is essential for food security. It is also an important source of employment and income in provinces with a large presence of small and medium-scale farmers. From May 2020 to October 2020, FAO implemented the project to “reduce soil degradation, and mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the livestock sector of Ecuador”. The project was implemented seven provinces, distributed in three geographic regions of the country (coastal Ecuador, the Andes and Amazon). The project had an impact on public policies, with the incorporation of climate-smart livestock farming as one of the lines of action for the agricultural sector. In terms of technical aspects, the preparation of online tools to monitor GHG emissions and to calculate climate risk and the adaptation capacity of the sector is noteworthy. One void shown in the project, throughout the consultation process with interested parties, was the lack of connections to the market and the private sector. This was not contemplated in the project design and arose as a recurring issue during the implementation
