The evaluation was very timely as the report provided a snapshot of current and historical activities prior to initiating the country programme framework (CPF) for 2018-2022. The comments and recommendations will be useful inputs to the new CPF. The evaluation reviewed much of the work the country office has been undertaking over the last several years and reinforced the continuation of priorities. It highlighted the office strengths as well as areas that could use improvement. As the country ha s only had one CPF (2010-2015, revised/updated in 2015-2017), the independent outside consultants provided objective and constructive comments to help the new CPF be more strategic. They also noted for a small country office with limited human resources, the CPF needs to consider an appropriate scale and scope so that it’s manageable. The conclusions pointed to the broad role FAO has played as a committed partner to the government and within the United Nations system as well as the challenge of entering new and more relevant areas of work including poverty alleviation and women’s empowerment. Furthermore many of the initiatives undertaken in the Kyrgyz Republic have been appreciated and effective. Still, improvements in monitoring, evaluation and data collection would help understand results better as well as assign attribution.
