No results found.This is the final evaluation report of a project that aimed to strengthen the agricultural and pastoral sectors’ climate change adaptation (CCA) capacities in the Niger. The project reached 21 142 direct beneficiaries (or 106 percent of the target), including 51 percent women. However, the project experienced shortcomings in terms of its management (from start-up to mid-term), its third expected result (integration of CCA into development policies and plans) and its mobilization/accounting of co-financing partners. The expected third result will be continued under the agro-pastoral field school-community listeners’ clubs (AFPS-CLC) component of the Climate-Smart Agriculture Support Project (PASEC). Despite project achievements, the evaluation concludes FAO must nevertheless improve certain project management and mobilization of co-financing mechanisms, strengthen the capacities of partners based on their needs-analysis, and recommends developing a long-term partnership with farmer organizations to strengthen their extension and advisory support capacities. -
BookletEvaluation reportTerminal evaluation of the project “Integrating climate resilience into agricultural and agropastoral production systems through soil fertility management in key productive and vulnerable areas using the Farmer Field School approach”

No results found.In Angola available projections agree that smallholder farmers would have severe impacts from climate change given the rainfall dependence of most staple crops, combined with unsustainable agricultural practices and prevalent soil erosion. This report presents the results of the evaluation of the IRCEA project which was implemented to strengthen the climate resilience of agropastoral systems in vulnerable areas of Bié, Huambo, Malanje and Huíla provinces. The project was relevant to the resilience of target beneficiaries and to the government's priority needs. Its effectiveness and efficiency were moderately satisfactory due to several factors highlighted in the report. Though the project sustainability was moderately unlikely, the project created positive environmental and social effects and satisfactorily integrated and empowered women FFS members. The report provides recommendations to FAO on the support it should provide to the government to ensure better integration of the FFS model and CCA/SLM tools in future similar projects and to ensure the management of several project performance factors.
