Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetEvaluation reportStrengthening agroclimatic monitoring and information systems to improve adaptation to climate change and food security in the Lao People’s Democratic Republic
Evaluation highlights
2024Also available in:
No results found.The project was implemented from 26 May 2017 to 30 June 2022. It aimed to i) enhance the monitoring, analsyis, communication and use of agrometerological data and information at national and provincial levels for decision-making in agriculture and food security; and ii) improve the monitoring and analsysis of agriculture production systems by strengthening the Land Resources Information Management System (LRIMS) and agroecological zoning (AEZ) for agricutltural policies and climate change adaptation. The evaluation covered the project's full five-years and aimed to provide evidence of the most productive egroclimatic approaches for the country. -

Book (series)Evaluation reportTerminal evaluation of the project “Climate Adaptation in Wetlands Areas in the Lao People's Democratic Republic”
Project code: GCP/LAO/022/LDF - GEF ID: 5489
2024Also available in:
No results found.This project supports communities in wetland areas of the Lao People’s Democratic Republic in efforts to reduce pressure on wetlands area, improve management and stewardship and diversify livelihoods. The project outcomes were consistent with national policies and plans, and it was successful in a range of wetland conservation efforts. Evidence-based planning and mainstreaming of climate change adaptation, disaster risk management and wetland conservation has been conducted in regular planning exercises, training of government staff and participating communities. RAMSAR site steering committees have been established. A major threat continues to be encroachment of wetlands for rice cultivation and use of chemical fertilizer and pesticides in rice fields.

Book (series)Evaluation reportMid-term evaluation of the project "Upscaling climate resilience measures in the dry corridor agroecosystems of El Salvador (RECLIMA)
Project code: GCP/ELS/017/GCF
2023Also available in:
The evaluation found that RECLIMA continues to be strategically aligned to national priorities and responds to the adaptation and resilience needs of producers. However, some systemic limits to achieving the desired paradigm shift were identified due to the multi-causal complexity of the target populations’ vulnerability. The project made significant progress in operationalizing farmer field schools. The evaluation identified some challenges in areas of institutional coordination and communication with national partners, along with the need to continue strengthening the capacities of the various actors involved in project implementation. The project’s monitoring and evaluation system was found to generate information that is being used for timely decision-making. However, key challenges identified include addressing the increased information flow anticipated in the second half of the project, making relevant information more readily available to implementing partners, and including a specific monitoring and follow-up plan for restoration actions. The project took the necessary steps to comply with GCF and FAO social and environmental standards. -
Book (series)Evaluation reportEvaluación final del proyecto “Fortalecimiento de la gestión ambientalmente adecuada de plaguicidas incluyendo Contaminantes Orgánicos Persistentes”
Codigo de proyecto: GCP/URU/031/GFF, FMAM: 5144
2024Also available in:
El proyecto, iniciado en enero de 2016 y extendido hasta diciembre de 2023, tuvo como objetivo eliminar las existencias de plaguicidas obsoletos incluidos los Contaminantes Orgánicos Persistentes y sus envases, y fortalecer la gestión del ciclo de vida de los plaguicidas en Uruguay. Los resultados de la evaluación indican que el proyecto inicio un proceso prioritario para conjuntar los enfoques productivo, ambiental y de salud con relación al fortalecimiento de la gestión de los plaguicidas. Se ha progresado hacia la reducción del riesgo a la salud humana y al ambiente gracias a los avances en la implementación del Plan de gestión de existencias obsoletas. Además, se encuentra que el proyecto ha logrado fortalecer la gestión de los envases vacíos, identificar estrategias efectivas de manejo integrado de plagas y alternativas a plaguicidas peligrosos, y fortalecer de manera importante las capacidades para el monitoreo de plaguicidas. Las recomendaciones se enfocan en el cumplimiento del plan de trabajo y el seguimiento a la propuesta de eliminación, y a la actualización y fortalecimiento del marco regulatorio. -
BookletEvaluation reportEvaluation of the project “Integrated Country Approach for boosting decent jobs for youth in the agrifood system” Phase III (2019–2023)
Project code: GCP/INT/335/MUL
2024Also available in:
No results found.The evaluation highlights the project's strong alignment with national priorities and FAO objectives, effectively addressing the needs of youth organizations and rural youth. It successfully enhanced the capacity of youth in agrifood systems, including agricultural production, digital and financial literacy, and marketing. While progress was made in developing agricultural value chains, further improvement is needed by adopting a strategic market systems approach. The ICA project fostered multistakeholder engagement, strengthening sustainability through national collaboration. However, challenges remain, particularly in access to finance for young agripreneurs and the need for tailored interventions to support diverse youth needs. The evaluation recommends: i) Adopting a strategic market systems approach for sustained systemic change; ii) Continuing a holistic, multi-stakeholder approach to provide comprehensive support to youth; iii) Implementing a two-stage targeting strategy, starting with youth structures and then focusing on individuals, ensuring inclusion of vulnerable groups; iv) Developing an exit strategy that ensures long-term sustainability in countries not continuing in future project phases; v) Establishing a comprehensive results framework and monitoring system for all ICA country projects.
