Cross-sectional evaluation of three agro-ecological projects
Misereor commissioned a crosscutting evaluation of Misereor’s engagement on agroecology in the Dominican Republic. This involved the evaluation of three agroecological projects in the north and southwest of the country and to assess their impact on agroecological production practices, food security, adaptation to climate change, strengthening of local farmers cooperatives, reforestation and watershed management. In addition, the specific situation of the partner organisations was assessed.
The main focus of this crosscutting evaluation was learning. FAKT carried out this evaluation to improve potential follow-up projects as well as the strategic orientation of the funding priority.
The following data collection and analysis methods were applied by FAKT:
