    Assessing Resilience and Building Capacity with SHARP+ in Türkiye in Support of Climate Policy and Reporting - UTF/TUR/071/TUR-F 2025
    Also available in:
    No results found.

    Agriculture in Türkiye is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, with small- and medium-sized farms facing challenges such as water scarcity, reduced productivity, and limited adaptive capacity. Reliable data on household-level resilience and the integration of such evidence into national strategies were lacking. To address this gap, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), in partnership with the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry - General Directorate of Agricultural Research and Policies (TAGEM) implemented the project “Climate Change Awareness Assessment and Capacity Building (SHARP+ Tool)” under the World Bank–financed Türkiye Climate Smart and Competitive Agricultural Growth Project. The project sought to assess the resilience of farming households, build institutional capacity to apply the Self-evaluation and Holistic Assessment of Climate Resilience of Farmers and Pastoralists (SHARP+) methodology, and translate findings into evidence-based policy recommendations aligned with Türkiye’s climate commitments and United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) reporting obligations.

    The FAO–GEF Türkiye Programme, which receives funding from the Global Environmental Facility and the Government of Türkiye, offers essential assistance in various areas. These include the sustainable management of forests, land, and water resources, biodiversity conservation through agroecology practices, nature-based solutions, and climate-smart agriculture. The programme aims to boost food and nutrition security while also improving livelihoods. Aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the FAO–GEF Türkiye Programme embraces inclusivity and sustainability, with a particular focus on empowering women and youth for rural development and resilience. It addresses the challenges of poverty, climate change, biodiversity loss, and desertification. Türkiye strongly supports the vision of FAO and the four betters: better production, better nutrition, a better environment and a better life, in order to transform sustainable food systems which are key elements to achieve the SDGs. This insightful provides detailed information about the collaborative efforts between FAO and Türkiye.

    Evaluation report
    Terminal evaluation of the project ”Conservation and Sustainable Management of Türkiye’s Steppe Ecosystems”
    Project code: GCP/TUR/061/GFF
    2024
    Also available in:
    No results found.

    The evaluation aimed to assess the progress made towards the impact and sustainability of project outcomes and to detect any design and implementation issues that need to be addressed before scaling up the project’s outputs. The evaluation applied a mixed methodological approach to data collection (quantitative and qualitative). It included structured document analysis and review of primary and secondary sources of information, semi-structured interviews with key informants and direct beneficiaries, focus group (FG) discussions with the community members, and direct site observations (site visits). The evaluation findings indicated significant achievements related to building the capacity and raising the awareness of national and provincial level stakeholders about the importance of the biodiversity conservation agenda and sustainable management of steppe ecosystems in the country. The project facilitated the creation of methodological and technical documents and guidelines as well as strategic and action plans, which serve as valuable and practical tools for the Government of Türkiye to facilitate and replicate further interventions in sustainable management of the steppe ecosystem and biodiversity in the country.
