    Since 2018, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has been an accredited entity for the Green Climate Fund (GCF or the Fund). Per the FAO GCF Accreditation Master Agreement,1 the FAO Office of Evaluation has some specific responsibilities regarding the evaluation of the GCF-funded projects.This guidance note was developed by the FAO Office of Evaluation in collaboration with the FAO Office of Climate Change, Biodiversity and Environment to provide a summary of the key information needed for colleagues involved in the formulation of GCF-funded projects and/or in their evaluation. This will ensure that evaluations of GCF-funded projects are designed, budgeted, and conducted in alignment with requirements transmitted through GCF policy and guidance documents.

    This discussion paper aims to help practitioners work in a more informed and politically sensitive way to integrate actions on disaster risk reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation (CCA) in agriculture. It illustrates some typical governance and political economy-related barriers that may hamper convergence or integration of DRR and CCA actions. It also provides guidance for in-depth governance analysis, putting the analytical focus at national and subnational levels, while considering the international context as an important factor for convergence. The FAO Governance and Policy Support Discussion Paper series provides perspectives and concepts on critical governance and policy issues that are relevant to FAO work at country, regional and global levels. Discussion Papers are often based on work in progress, and we welcome suggestions and ideas by email at: governance-support@fao.org.
