Synopsis (short abstract) The document provides an overview of the potential steps needed in designing an adaptation Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) framework and plan for the agriculture sectors. It interprets how initial steps or building blocks proposed by GIZ, with regards to developing national adaptation M&E systems, could be applied for developing an adaptation M&E system for the agriculture sectors specifically.

This case study provides an overview and analysis of lessons learned in developing monitoring and evaluation (M&E) of adaptation in the agriculture sector in Colombia, as part of a broader national adaptation M&E system. It presents the policy and institutional context for adaptation M&E in Colombia; the process, theory and methodology applied for designing the adaptation M&E system and in particular its agriculture components; and the outcome, or the vulnerability and risk analysis, and the indicators, that have been identified for assessing adaptation in the agriculture sector. Finally, lessons learned in terms of challenges, successes and next steps are discussed.

The importance of monitoring and evaluation (M&E) of climate change adaptation has been highlighted at global level, including under the Paris Agreement. Simultaneously, adaptation M&E systems are beginning to emerge at the national level in the context of national planning and budgeting processes. This technical guidance note details how to develop M&E systems for adaptation planning in agriculture sectors.

Terminal evaluation of the project “Reducing vulnerability and increasing adaptive capacity to respond to impacts of climate change and variability for sustainable livelihoods in agriculture sector in Nepal”
Project code: GCP/NEP/070/LDF GEF ID: 5111
2020

The project’s goal was to support Nepal’s agriculture sector to become climate resilient by promoting urgent and immediate adaptation measures and integration of adaptation priorities outlined in the National Adaptation Programme of Action (NAPA) into agriculture sectorial policies, plans, programmes and local actions. The final evaluation found that the relevant institutional structures in Nepal are now technically capable of incorporating climate change adaptation in agriculture sector decision-making. However, project districts could not benefit from strengthened staff capacity due to scattering of institutional memory caused by staff transfers and relocation in federal, provincial and local governments. Evidence of climate change adaptation related awareness raising and knowledge management activities were apparent in project districts. However, wider dissemination of knowledge and awareness raising products for replication and up-scaling of the project remains yet to be achieved adequately. The project has contributed in economic and social empowerment of most vulnerable Farmer’s Field School group members and specifically the women. However, a robust agriculture sector support mechanism will be required to sustain the impact in future.
