About this project

Description

The Adaptive Management and Learning (A&L) child project will be responsible for overall Program coordination among the different child projects. A virtual Program Secretariat will be established and will be charged with Program execution. A Program Steering Committee will be set up and held accountable for Program delivery and national focal points will be designated in each of the four IAP target countries. The A&L project will be instrumental in ensuring that the IAP is viewed as a cohesive whole and that it has a clear identity. This will entail a number of different vital elements including development of an IAP brand identity; Program-level monitoring and evaluation; knowledge management; and implementation of a partnership strategy with global-level cross cutting partners. As part of the KM activities, a Global Community of Practice will be established to convene practitioners from the IAP target countries to share best practices and promote learning. The A&L project will also contribute to developing a robust and policy-relevant evidence base on the effectiveness of different voluntary sustainability standards being used to implement deforestation-free and sustainable production and sourcing initiatives. This will include support to filling key gaps in the evidence base, making existing evidence more accessible to key user groups and synthesizing and communicating evidence in decision-relevant terms.
