Book (series)Evaluation reportTerminal evaluation of the project “AVACLIM: agroecology, ensuring food security and sustainable livelihoods while mitigating climate change and restoring land in dryland regions”
Project code: GCP/GLO/927/GFF - GEF ID: 9993
2024Also available in:
No results found.The project aims to mainstream agroecology in drylands as a tool to address food insecurity, mitigate and adapt to climate change, and restore degraded land. Launched in October 2019, it was led by the Centre for Actions and International Achievements in partnership with the Environmental Monitoring Group, the Research Institute for Development, Both ENDS, and seven national organizations from Brazil, Morocco, Senegal, Burkina Faso, South Africa, Ethiopia and India. The project was found to be entirely relevant and coherent with national and global priorities in the fields of agricultural development, food security, natural resources preservation and climate change response. Overall, the strong integration of project activities into existing global and national dynamics on agroecology strengthened project effectiveness. It is likely that some of the achieved results will continue after project closure, but others require additional financial resources. -

FAO and partners set example for regional collaboration
2019Also available in:
No results found.The FAO-led Integration of Amazon Protected Areas (IAPA) project marks the first time that an EC‑funded intervention in Regional Latin America and the Caribbean has utilized FAO’s Operational Partners Implementation Modality (OPIM). Through OPIM, FAO has been able to make the best use of expertise available on the ground, strengthen national and local ownership of interventions and increase the sustainability of results. Close collaboration on the ground – including numerous in person meetings – between FAO and its Operational Partners - the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) and the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) - proved to be a key factor in the success of the project. Early video conferences helped to ensure clarity of both FAO and EC requirements. Site visits from FAO to Operational Partner offices gave the Organization invaluable knowledge of the partners’ accounting systems and controls. All parties were actively contributing to the strategic and operational development of their respective organization’s programmes. Importantly, the lessons learned by Operational Partners throughout this process will continue to benefit their operations in future interactions with the EC and other donors. -

Book (series)Technical studyManaging heat in agricultural work
Increasing worker safety and productivity by controlling heat exposure
2018Also available in:
No results found.This report reviews the implications of heat stress in working environments in agriculture (with a focus on farming and forestry), how it affects the human body, the risks it poses to human health, how it is measured, how it affects labour productivity, and how it can be managed. Managers often disregard heat stress as an occupational hazard, and workers therefore often have to handle this aspect of the work environment themselves. Heat stress has a negative effect on worker performance, and exposure to severe heat stress can be fatal; nevertheless, it can be greatly reduced with proper work organization and education.
