    Technical Assistance to the Ministry of Agriculture, Irrigation and Livestock to Perform Policy Gap Analysis - TCP/AFG/3606 2020

    In Afghanistan, concerns over food insecurity and malnutrition are major hinderances to ensuring political, economic and social stability. The Ministry of Agriculture, Irrigation and Livestock (MAIL) drafted more than 88 policies, strategies, laws, frameworks and procedures in the 2004–2017 period. Yet, only a few of these proposals have been endorsed and implemented, and Afghanistan continues to face major challenges in transforming drafted policies into actions. Greater coordination among departments and ministries of the Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan (GoIRA) is required to improve the situation and avoid the duplication of efforts. A comprehensive gap analysis to map the major policies that have already been drafted, along with their relevance, will be crucial to this effort. In addition, compliance with the GoIRA’s national and international commitments in the agriculture sector must be prioritized, with a focus on reconciling disparities between ongoing implementation efforts and these commitments.

    The FAO and JICA-funded project “Capacity Development of the Irrigation Department of the Ministry of Agriculture, Irrigation and Livestock of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan” was designed to improve the capacity of the Irrigation Department to formulate, implement, monitor and evaluate agriculture irrigation development projects. The results of this Final Evaluation set a sound foundation for the management of the irrigation sector as it contributed to enhance Irrigation Department’s staff skills, knowledge and awareness, as well as to develop an Irrigation Database useful to support the Department’s decision-making process. The project also contributed to the policy dialogue setting the basis for a future institutional transformation and governance development. This could be achieved in the long-term through further dedicated interventions which could also support the Ministry of Agriculture, Irrigation and Livestock in clarifying the roles and responsibilities for all water management-related institutions, as well as in developing and including a gender approach in its interventions.
