2024Also available in:
No results found.The project, implemented between March 2019 and September 2023, aimed to empower women's cooperatives and producer associations in Lebanon’s agrifood sector. Initiated by FAO at the request of Lebanon’s Ministry of Agriculture, the project sought to improve women's economic empowerment, contributing to local economic growth and social stability. FAO focused on capacity-building and training, integrating 150 women’s groups into local value chains. The project also sought to strengthen Lebanon’s Ministry of Agriculture’s Directorate of Cooperatives ability to manage and monitor cooperatives in Lebanon.The evaluation highlighted the project’s adaptability amidst challenges, such as COVID-19 and Lebanon’s economic crisis. Awareness campaigns, capacity-building efforts, and cash grant disbursements were successful, but there is room for improvement in data generation. Recommendations for future initiatives include refining the monitoring framework, continue supporting government entities, and improving oversight of local partners. Further efforts are needed to ensure long-term impact and support for vulnerable women’s groups. -
BookletEvaluation of the project “Enhancing resilient livelihoods and food security of host communities and Syrian refugees in Jordan and Lebanon through the promotion of sustainable agricultural development”
Project code: UNJP/RNE/011/EC
2024Also available in:
No results found.This report presents the final evaluation of the project “Enhancing resilient livelihoods and food security of host communities and Syrian refugees in Jordan and Lebanon through the promotion of sustainable agricultural development”. Key findings include the partial success of the farmers' registries, which, despite their importance, did not fully meet their targets due to technical and contextual challenges. The grant schemes provided valuable support but were hampered by process inefficiencies and financial barriers faced by beneficiaries. The project’s efforts in natural resource management successfully met or exceeded targets but raised concerns about the sustainability of environmental gains. The project made important strides in capacity building and provided short-term economic support to vulnerable communities, the sustainability of these outcomes is uncertain. The evaluation recommends continued investment in capacity building, the development of robust exit strategies, and more comprehensive approaches to gender equality and social cohesion to enhance the long-term impact of future interventions. -
