This baseline report evaluates FP034, a wetland restoration and community resilience project in Uganda, implemented by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). Assessed under the Learning-Oriented Real-Time Impact Assessment (LORTA) Programme, the study uses a difference-in-differences design with matching to measure project impact.

Data was collected from 1,666 households across treatment and comparison wetland systems in eastern and southwestern Uganda, alongside flora and fauna surveys, water quality assessments, and satellite data. These findings provide a foundation for tracking socioeconomic and environmental changes as project implementation progresses.
