Under this contract CAREC will subcontract other consultants/entities as needed to support the execution of activities according to country-specific terms of reference. CAREC will also manage a regional-level M&E system for the RESILAND CA+ Program to monitor, evaluate, and report on the Program’s regional impact using a set of predefined indicators.
RESILAND Tajikistan finances the development and management of a regional exchange platform, bringing Central Asian countries together to address shared challenges.
The Platform will host:
· semiannual meetings of RESILAND CA+ Program implementing entities to discuss program progress;
· annual fora for ministries responsible for forests, landscape restoration, and environment to discuss landscape management and restoration trends and actions; and
· annual fora for the broader cross-section groups of stakeholders engaged in landscape restoration, including nongovernmental entities, prominent regional organizations, private sector, and development partners.
The platform will allow for a two-way dialog between government and non-governmental actors in Central Asia on technologies and approaches to landscape restoration, including knowledge exchange.
