Project Objectives 1.To build a scientifically rigorous and credible assessment of the performance of the implementation of the Convention at national, subregional, regional and global levels; and 2.To build/strengthen capacity and knowledge management systems for subsequent assessment and reporting, including impact indicators. performance review & assessment of implementation system

PRAIS Components 1: Review of indicators, and formulation of guidelines and reporting formats 2: Assessment of current baseline, synthesis and preparation of reports at all levels 3: Knowledge Management System, M&E and Dissemination (4: Project Management) performance review & assessment of implementation system

Role of the Reference Centres performance review & assessment of implementation system 14 Regional and Sub-Regional Reference Centres jointly identified by UNCCD Secretariat and UNEP-WCMC in consultation with the GM and UNEP/DGEF as executing partners for the UNCCD PRAIS project at the regional level. The RCs are specialized institutions in the sub-region/region with recognized mandate in SLM and a recognized experience of UNCCD implementation. These centers are expected to continue to play a major role in the reporting process beyond the 2010 pilot exercise. They should have some mechanisms which retain and share institutional knowledge, including of the assessment and reporting process. In cooperation with UNEP-WCMC, they will be responsible for the execution of the activities at regional level, providing front-line support for nore than140 eligible Affected Country Parties. As such, they will play a crucial role for the successful implementation of the project at regional and national level.
