DocumentStrengthening Evidence-Based Forest Policy-Making. Linking Forest Monitoring with National Forest Programmes 2014
Also available in:
No results found.This paper proposes an approach to assist countries in ensuring that NFM planning more strongly meets the needs and demands of forest-related national policy processes. The approach is based on an understanding that there is a multiplicity of issues and legitimate interests related to forests that require multipurpose information systems. The approach is also based on the following two assumptions: 1) that the technical, financial and administrative design of an NFM system is based on the inform ation needs and user requirements of various policy processes and stakeholders; and 2) that strong stakeholder involvement is needed at all stages of NFM planning and implementation. -
ProjectAccelerating Inclusive Agricultural Transformation through Agricultural Policy Monitoring and Evidence-Based Reform - MTF/GLO/543/BMG 2022

No results found.An enabling policy environment is a key condition for agricultural development, food security and broader poverty reduction. Despite this, government policy analysts and decision makers in developing countries often lack the capacity to generate reliable and economically robust ex post evidence on, and ex ante assessments of, the impact of their policies on farmers, other local value chain actors, consumers and the wider economy. As a result, agricultural policies are often incoherent and inconsistent with the overarching agricultural sector goals stated in national strategies and investment plans. FAO has been implementing Phase I of the initiative Monitoring and Analysing Food and Agricultural Policies (MAFAP I) since 2009. In that time, it has successfully worked with national government policy analysts and policy makers to create policy monitoring systems and a consistent set of policy and public expenditure analyses across a wide range of agricultural value chains in ten countries. Having identified and assessed in the first phase of the initiative some of the key policy constraints affecting agricultural producers, MAFAP II was designed to carry the process forward, while also supporting governments to develop options for reforming problematic policies, with a view to further incentivizing and serving value chain actors, in particular smallholder farmers. -
ProjectStrengthened Evidence-Based Decision-Making and Monitoring of Progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals through Improved National Capacities - TCP/RAS/3709 2023
Also available in:
No results found.The project has helped to improve partnerships between national statistics offices, ministries of agriculture, and other stakeholders with expertise in the relevant new technologies, including GIS experts and departments in other ministries, academic institutions, and international and regional organizations. The project has complemented other projects and programmes involved in building capacity regarding the SDG indicators through the use of the cost-effective methods introduced. Integrating Big Data with traditional survey and census data has also enabled users to analyse and monitor, inter alia, the impact of natural disasters on different types of farmers and the effects of climate change on female-headed agriculture households.
