Seminar: Forest programs for mitigating climate change, and poverty

Noen konklusjoner fra seminaret/some conclusions from the seminar:

• past monitoring and evaluation has been generally inadequate and in some cases misleading
• because programs have the potential to affect incomes and poverty, either positively or negatively, these impacts need to be monitored in addition to carbon and deforestation impacts
• rigorous impact analysis is feasible and often necessary for accurate
  conclusions
• real time monitoring of basic aspects of program performance, together with continuous learning and evaluation, need not be expensive and has the potential greatly to increase effectiveness.
