Descripción
This evaluation focused on the FAO technical assistance (TA) contribution to a large GAFSP funded agriculture and nutrition programme in Nepal. The project aimed to promote climate-sensitive agriculture, improve knowledge and skills in extension workers and 65 000 participating households, and improve linkages to value chains. The TA function was largely successful in building technical capacity, knowledge sharing, and community engagement through trained staff, quality learning materials, and expanded field school programs, with high female participation. there were some constraints in fragmented coordination and limited integration with local governance structures, affecting sustainability potential. Recommendations were made for similar future investments which focused on stronger integration with Local Governance Structures; improvements in operational efficiency and responsiveness; and better incorporation of inclusion and sustainability mechanisms.
