Poverty, Reforestation, Energy and Climate Change Project (PROEZA)
Climate smart agroforestry systems: This evaluation evaluates the impact of “environmental conditional cash transfer plus programme” (E-CCT+) on climate resilience of poor households and forest cover in eastern Paraguay. Agricultural expansion and fuelwood harvesting are the major contributors to deforestation. Land use change has also resulted in major losses of unique and valuable biodiversity from the Atlantic Forest. Despite increasing public attention and effort to decrease deforestation and improve water resources management in recent years, progress has been slow. This project PROEZA, implemented by Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), combines cash transfers with productive assets, agroforestry inputs and technical training and extension services to enhance the livelihoods and productive capacities of poor and vulnerable households while protecting the environment. The evaluation will provide insight into the effectiveness of such programme on increasing climate resilience of vulnerable communities as well as the forest cover.

LORTA Inception Workshop 2018
04 Dec 2018
This report introduces the Learning-Oriented Real-Time Impact Assessment (LORTA) programme, initiated by the Independent Evaluation Unit (IEU) of the Green Climate Fund (GCF). The LORTA programme aims to embed real-time impact evaluations into GCF projects to measure their effectiveness and enhance learning. It includes outcomes from the design workshop held in Bangkok, Thailand, project selection criteria, and an implementation timeline.
Impact
Early findings from LORTA's baseline data collection for FP062 are expected to be released later this year.
