    Terminal evaluation of the project "Mainstreaming ecosystem-based approaches to climate-resilient rural livelihoods in vulnerable rural areas through the farmer field school methodology
    Project code: GCP/SEN/065/LDF GEF ID: 5503

    This terminal evaluation covers the project "Mainstreaming ecosystem-based approaches to climate-resilient rural livelihoods in vulnerable rural areas through the farmer field school (FFS) methodology", funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF). The overall performance of the project is moderately satisfactory. The project is relevant in its response to climate change adaptation needs in Senegal. It is coherent in its design and is in phase with the Plan Senegal Emergent (PSE). The evaluation found that the project has contributed to capacity building of institutional actors and farmers organizations on climate change adaptation, resilience and gender equity. Notable results include: capacity building of technicians, relay producers, farmers and agro-pastoralists on good practices of adaptation to climate change, through the field-school approach; the establishment of a climate resilience fund that has allowed to finance micro-projects in rural area; the dissemination of agro-climatic information; trainings on adapted climate change practices at the farmfer field school (FFS) and agropastoral field school (APFS) level.

    Boosting the Livelihoods of Smallholder Farmers in the Syrian Arab Republic - GCP/SYR/027/GER 2022

    Following years of conflict, and with the living conditions of the Syrian population continuing to deteriorate, repeated emergency interventions are no longer sufficient to support households and community livelihoods. The lack of capacity within the state institutions responsible for operating the centralized system and providing subsidies, together with the increased demand of a rapidly growing population have negatively affected the Syrian Arab Republic’s overall farm production and productivity, food security and socio economic stability. There is an urgent need to strengthen the sustainable management of natural resources (water, land and soil) in order to ensure sustainable food production. The project formed part of the multidonor FAO Smallholder Support Programme (SSP), the first project of its kind in the Syrian Arab Republic, which has piloted local level intervention with the aim of empowering smallholder farmers, including women and youth in the agriculture sector, and giving them the means to be more independent, more competitive and more sustainable , as the sector emerges from more than ten years of crisis. The present project aimed to place greater emphasis on innovative work with vulnerable groups in locations across the country. More specifically, the contribution of the Germany’s Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) was to be used to target and reinforce women’s groups and young people engaged in the value chains covered under Result 1.2 of the wider SSP, centring on increased access for smallholders to market opportunities and revenue through value chain based interventions.
