Situation Analyses
The Programme is currently in the Appraisal and Design phase, and has commissioned the following Situation Analyses to inform the design of the research programme.
The objectives of the situation analyses are:
- to collect and analyse evidence on
- the ecosystem services most important to the wellbeing of the poor;
- the main challenges to the ecosystems that provide these services;
- the key ecosystem management functions for maximising poverty alleviation;
- identify how these challenges can best be addressed through research to provide poverty alleviation outcomes;
- to conduct an information and knowledge needs assessment with policy-makers and other stakeholders involved in ecosystem management;
- assess the need for skills and knowledge exchanges to strengthen the capacity of regional research providers and research output users;
- present the analysis to a regional peer group and develop findings based on feedback and collective reflection.
