About this project
Description
The goal of this project is to help Madagascar meet and sustain obligations under the three Rio Conventions. As a contribution to meeting this goal, the immediate objective of this project is to strengthen a targeted set of national capacities to deliver and sustain global environmental outcomes within the framework of sustainable development priorities. This will be accomplished by five components which will build systemic, institutional, and individual capacities within Madagascar. Among the key activities of the project are the early implementation of an environmental management information system, and the strengthening of institutional structures and mechanisms for mainstreaming and enforcing Rio Conventions compliance. The project's strategy emphasizes a long-term approach to institutionalizing capacities to meet MEA obligations through a set of learn-by-doing activities that lay the foundation for effective decision-making regarding global environmental benefits. Active participation of stakeholder representatives in the full project life cycle facilitates the strategic adaptation of project activities in keeping with project objectives. Moreover, the inclusion of non-state stakeholders contributes to the adaptive collaborative management of project implementation and promotes long-term sustainability of project outcomes.
