Kurzbeschreibung

An independent Mid-Term Review (MTR) of the Multi Stakeholder Forestry Programme (MSFP) was carried out in 2015. The purposes of the MTR is to ‘provide an independent analysis of the achievements against the expected purpose, outcomes, outputs and benchmarks of the MSFP initial phase and provide strategic directions and recommendations for the future of MSFP, the next implementation phase. The MTR review team consisted of 7 members (International Team Leader, Gender, Social Inclusion and Livelihood Specialist, Forest/Institution Specialist, Private Sector Specialist, Climate Change Specialist, Governance/Forest Policy Specialist and a member of National Planning Commission). The MTR uses multiple methods to gather, analyse, interpret and present data/information about MSFP contributions and challenges. The MTR confirms the programme’s relevance and continued importance for local and national economic growth, and in particular for the poor, women and disadvantaged populations. The MTR reveals that the programme has been able to start the process of enhancing the multi-stakeholder cooperation in forest governance, particularly the development of partnership between NGOs and Government agencies and the implementation of a high level multi-stakeholder steering committee. This has been linked to the development of a variety of multi-stakeholder mechanisms and processes down to local levels. The programme has supported sustainable forest management practices and private sector's involvement for job creation for members of local forestry groups. The grant money of the programme is reaching to local communities, especially for livelihoods improvement of the poor and disadvantaged members of local forestry groups. The MTR also reveals that the MSFP is attempting to weaken gender and caste stereotypes in both the domestic and public spheres by creating micro-entrepreneur role models. The MSFP has shown that it is possible using national implementation modality to manage a national programme in the forest sector adopting multi-stakeholder (MS) approach, but there needs strong programme monitoring and capacity building measures to minimize fiduciary risks and achieve expected outcomes. The MTR has also identified some challenges and issues of the programme. The programme operates in a complex and highly politicised environment and that the setup and operationalisation of a complex programme takes time in itself. The programme has been affected by rapid change in staff in all key agencies, capacity gaps and rapid expansion of the programme. The MTR has provided strategic and operational recommendations. The operational recommendations focuses on improving the governance of the programme implementation. The strategic recommendations emphasized for effective engagement of the MFSP in removing policy barriers in tapping the potential of forests for resulting in multiple benefits to people and forest ecosystem and for building resilient of the most vulnerable groups in rapid change (socio-economic, political and climate change) context in Nepal.
