Book (series)Terminal evaluation of the project “Climate-smart Livestock Production and Land Restoration in the Uruguayan Rangelands”
Project code: GCP/URU/034/GFF - GEF ID: 9153
2024Also available in:
The project “Climate-smart livestock production and land restoration in the Uruguayan rangelands” was financed by the Global Environment Facility (GEF) and executed by Uruguay’s Ministry of Livestock, Agriculture and Fisheries (MGAP) between February 2018 and September 2023. Its objective was to “mitigate climate change and restore degraded lands through the promotion of climate-smart practices in the livestock sector, with an emphasis on family farming”.The evaluation findings indicate that the project's execution led to the attainment of outputs and outcomes which contributed to the stated objective. Specifically, results demonstrated the feasibility of establishing environmentally sustainable livestock production systems without compromising productivity or economic viability, as validated by beneficiaries. Furthermore, the project introduced public policy instruments to facilitate the replication and scalability of this successful model, offering an institutional framework for wider adoption. -
Book (series)Evaluation of "Promotion of climate-smart livestock management integrating reversion of land degradation and reduction of desertification risks in vulnerable provinces
Project codes: GCP/ECU/085/GFF and GCP/ECU/092/SCF GEF ID: 4775

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 -

Summary Report
2023Also available in:
No results found.This evaluation was carried out to provide input for the development of the next Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Country Programming Framework in the Dominican Republic and has consisted of the assessment of the strategic positioning of FAO in the country, and the identification of the main contributions in each of the priority areas and transversal themes (gender and economic inclusion of groups in vulnerable conditions and climate action) during the period 2018–2022. The evaluation found that FAO has been a reference point on key issues for the food, agricultural and rural sector. For example, FAO has had influence on public policies on food security and has strengthened capacities to promote associations and the adoption of innovative practices in areas such as climate-smart livestock farming. On the other hand, there is potential to strengthen collaboration between partners who have common objectives with the organisation, especially in the face of emerging issues.
