    The project aimed to build the capacity of farming and forestry stakeholders to mitigate climate change and improve land conditions by adopting climate-smart agriculture and sustainable forest management policies and practices. Its geographical focus was five townships in three priority agroecosystem zones: Ayeyarwady Delta, Central Dry Zone, and an upland, shifting cultivation zone. There were two executing partners of equal status: the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environmental Conservation and the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Irrigation. The project maintained its alignment with stakeholder priorities despite some major changes that occurred between the project’s initial design and the terminal evaluation. Effectiveness overall was moderately satisfactory, with a mixed picture in achieving outputs and outcomes, and major hindrances stemming from COVID-19 and the political emergency rule. Recommendations included: future similar projects should have a bridging phase in order to plan a follow-up project for broader implementation; and centralized monitoring systems should be created along with exit strategies. Available institutional resource bases must account for the replication and scalability of project-piloted approaches and models – and avoid “development islands”.
