Completion Evaluation of Envir.&CC Component - Completion Evaluation of Environ.& CC Component
General
Completion Evaluation of Environment and Climate Change Component has been planned for 2016. This follows a contribution agreement of ERN programme signed between the Ministry of finance and Economic Planning (MINECOFIN) on behalf of the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (MINIRenA) and its affiliated agencies (REMA & RNRA). This Completion Evaluation Study involves only the Environment and Climate Change Component one of the two components of Environment and Natural Resources Programme (enR). This component was implemented by Rwanda Environment Management Authority (REMA) while Land Tenure Regularisation component was implemented by Rwanda Natural Resources Agency (RNRA).These agencies are affiliated to the Ministry of Natural Resources (MINIRenA). The objectives of environment and climate change component are: strengthening the capacities of MINIRenA and REMA to be able to secure effective environment pollution control for the sustainable development; mainstream environment in different sectors, strategies, programmes and policies; and address climate change issues. This contribution has not undergone mid term evaluation due to the decision taken by the Swedish Government (GoS) to freeze state to state cooperation with the Government of Rwanda in 2012 which temporarily halted the programme's operations. However, this decision was later on repealed and continued with project implementation as per agreement.
Land administration 2013-2019, Mozambique, GESTERRA
General
GESTERRA was a programme that was implemented between 2013 and 2019, aiming to establish a well-designed and regulated, transparent and implemented land governance system as the basis for inclusive social and economic development. The programme had two main components: (i) Land governance for an integrated vision of land management and land administration, and (ii) Land administration services and building of the National Land Cadastre. The programme focused on institutional capacity building, system development, and de-centralised roll-out of the land administration system. Through DINAT, the National Land Registry in Mozambique (the 'Direcção Nacional de Terras), the Government of Mozambique would be able to lead the land management process and play a critical and constructive role in land governance, with improved communication and enforcement of technical norms and standards for land administration, as well as monitoring and quality control.
