1. Awareness Framework Team Meeting Assessment Methodology & Tools Development

2. Assessment Methodology & Tools Development Task #3 – Develop Analytical Assessment Tool “Develop an analytical tool to help Missions quickly and efficiently determine and understand the nature of a host country’s property rights system, and resource management and institutional structures. This might be a “quick list” of the most relevant questions to ask, issues to consider, and people or institutions to consult.”

3. Assessment Methodology & Tools Development “Methodology: This is a desk study, based on practical field experience and the literature. The focus is on developing an efficient methodology (which might also include the collection of baseline information) for Missions to be able to assess the impacts of property rights reform activities in short-order and with minimal resources.”

4. Assessment Methodology & Tools Development What type of tool do we want to create?

5. Assessment Methodology & Tools Development What is the purpose? Identifying and prioritizing countries with serious land problems Conducting a first land assessment in a country Designing new programs to address land issues Assessing on-going land tenure programs Designing a program to address a particular problem related to land Provide structure and useful resources to future land assessment teams in order to ensure sound analysis and appropriate recommendations

6. Assessment Methodology & Tools Development USAID program officers with little understanding of land tenure issues USAID officials with greater understanding of land tenure issues Host country partners (govt, NGOs, beneficiaries) Donor community and other land tenure specialists Who is the audience?

7. Assessment Methodology & Tools Development What is the nature of land and property rights systems in a country? Albania to Zimbabwe

8. Assessment Methodology & Tools Development How much time to conduct? How many team members; who are they? Resources available? Field work vs. desk study?

9. Assessment Methodology & Tools Development Assessment Manual vs. Outline List of key questions/issues vs. Complex methodology Step by Step Process vs. Guidelines Qualitative vs. Quantitative WB Methodology vs. Open-ended One-size-fits all vs. 100 different methods Other Considerations:

10. Assessment Methodology & Tools Development An appropriate set of tools that can be used in a broad variety of contexts to conduct an efficient analysis of a given country’s land tenure and property rights system and that leads to well- designed programming and well-founded recommendations

11. Assessment Methodology & Tools Development What will the toolkit consist of? Comprehensive Outline of Land Issues Process of Identification and Prioritization of Key Constraints Gap Analysis of Donor Assistance Sequence of Reforms Tool Illustrative Outline(s) for Assessment Report Questionaire/Survey for Field Work Impact Measurement Tool Suggestions for Team Composition and TORs for Team Members
