These recommendations are a compilation of 2 regional studies at sub-Saharan Africa level which focused on research and technology transfer in the field of rainwater harvesting irrigatio nmanagement on one hand (section 3), and effective policy recommendations on the use of rainwater for off-season small-scale irrigation on the other (section 4). The regional studies upon which this transnational study is based come from the analysis of national studies in Ethiopia, Kenya, Mozambique and Zimbabwe.
These advanced training materials have been produced to foster the capacity of practitioners from private, nongovernmental and public sectors on one hand, and academics and scientists on the other, to practically implement cost-efficient RWHI technologies and practices in arid and semi-arid areas. Therefore, these training materials intend to provide the required information to support proper planning, design and construction of cost-efficient RWHI technologies and practices, with special emphasis on the specific problems encountered in Ethiopia, Kenya, Mozambique and Zimbabwe.
These training materials have been produced to foster the capacity of key members of local communities to practically implement RWHI systems in a cost-efficient manner. The specific target group of these capacity building materials are local community members who are directly involved in the replication and scale-up of RWHI technologies and practices, i.e.
This report is part of the AFRHINET project under the ACP-EU Cooperation Programme in Science and Technology (S&T II). The overall aims of the project are to enhance options for sustainable integration of rainwater harvesting for irrigation through understanding adoption constraints and developing networks for capacity building and technology transfer. The African partners are Addis Ababa University and WaterAid-Ethiopia in Ethiopia, University of Nairobi and ICRAF-Searnet in Kenya, Eduardo Mondlane University in Mozambique, and University of Zimbabwe and ICRISAT-Zimbabwe in Zimbabwe.
This study has been produced with the overall goal to document and analyse exisiting best practices in the field of RWHI management in sub-Saharan Africa, with a special focus on Ethiopia, Kenya, Mozambique and Zimbabwe. This is meant to determine the suitability of RWHI management under multivariate biophysical and socioeconomic conditions. The best practices include specific information and know-how on the performance, cost-efficiency and impacts of RWHI technologies.
The purpose of this paper is to map some elements that can contribute to an IFAD strategy to stimulate and support pro-poor innovations. It is an initial or exploratory document that hopefully will add to an ongoing and necessary debate, and is not intended as a final position paper. The document is organized as follows.
Este reporte presenta un resumen de la primera evaluación del programa del FIDA en Argentina realizada por la Oficina de Evaluación del FIDA en 2009/10.
En el presente informe se hace una evaluación parcial del Programa de Desarrollo Rural de Las Verapaces donde se resumen los principales hallazgos de la evaluación y se presentan las recomendaciones acordadas entre el Gobierno de Guatemala y el FIDA, junto con las propuestas de cómo ponerlas en práctica y quienes serán los encargados de implementarlas.
Documento de evaluación final del IFAD(Fida) a respecto de proyecto implementado en Argentina. Esta evaluación tiene como objetivo principal efectuar una valoración sobre el desempeño y el impacto del proyecto, buscando al mismo tiempo generar hallazgos y recomendaciones para futuras operaciones similares en Argentina y otros países. La evaluación servirá además para informar la Evaluación del Programa en el País que será llevada a cabo por la Oficina de Evaluación (OE) en 2009.
Este informe presenta la evaluación de los resultados del Proyecto de Fortalecimiento de los Mercados, Diversificación de los Ingresos y Mejoramiento de las Condiciones de Vida en la Sierra Sur (PDSS) en el Perú llevada a cabo por la Oficina de Evaluación Independiente (IOE) del FIDA en 2017. El PDSS fue implementado en el periodo 2005-2011. Antes de la fecha de cierre del proyecto, se decidió financiar un préstamo suplementario en el ámbito de la sierra sur peruana (2010-2015).
