Book (stand-alone)Toolkit for value chain analysis and market development integrating climate resilience and gender responsiveness
Integrating agriculture in National Adaptation Plans (NAP-Ag) Programme
2019Also available in:
No results found.This toolkit aims to help countries in selecting and analysing value chains for opportunities to improve climate change resilience and reduce gender inequalities. It intends to provide policy makers, planners, project developers, technical advisors and implementers at local, regional or national level with good practices of climate-resilient and gender-responsive value chain development. It aims to act as a repository of relevant tools and methodologies for identifying relevant stakeholders and engaging with them to collect data and analyse it to design interventions. Climate change threatens agricultural value chains, and having a gender-responsive value chain approach is useful in analysing the climate risks, as it looks at stages during and beyond production, while using a more systemic approach to risk management. -
ProjectOperationalizing a Gender-Responsive Uganda National Adaptation Plan for the Agriculture Sector (NAP-Ag) - TCP/UGA/3802 2024

No results found.In addition to ensuring food and nutrition security, agriculture is central to Uganda’s economic growth and poverty reduction strategies. The agriculture sector accounts for over 24 percent of gross domestic product and provides employment to over 68 per cent of the total labour force, about 75 per cent of whom are women and 70 per cent youth, most of whom reside in rural areas. However, the country is faced by the challenges of climate change. A rise in average temperature and unreliable rainfall patterns have had significant impact on agricultural production and productivity, undermining efforts for development and food and nutrition security in the country. Erratic weather patterns drive the rural population to resort to coping mechanisms that degrade the environment. With Uganda’s population, currently estimated at about 44 million and growing at 3.2 percent annually, providing sufficient food and a surplus for income generation, in the light of climate change, is a significant challenge. In response, MAAIF has worked closely with development partners to mainstream climate change adaptation strategies into the agriculture sector. However, most interventions were scattered and there was no comprehensive strategic response to climate change challenges. For this reason, MAAIF, in collaboration with FAO, developed the National Adaptation Plan for the Agriculture Sector (NAP-Ag), launched in November 2018. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetUsing impact evaluation to improve policymaking for climate change adaptation in the agriculture sectors 2018
Also available in:
No results found.Impact evaluation (IE) enables programme managers and policymakers to plan interventions in a rational and evidence-based manner. While a range of evaluation methods exists, this briefing note provides an overview of rigorous and quantitatively sound IE methods. These methods provide programme managers and policymakers thorough evidence on the impact of adaptation interventions, allowing them to make informed policy choices on adaptation options. By engaging in detailed, evidence-based evaluation, policymakers and programme managers can address critical elements for the formulation and implementation of the National Adaptation Plans (NAPs).
