1 s Ethiopia Sustainable Land Management Project Impact Evaluation CROSS-COUNTRY WORKSHOP FOR IMPACT EVALUATIONS IN AGRICULTURE AND COMMUNITY DRIVEN DEVELOPMENT Addis Ababa, April 13-16, 2009 Team Members: Zelalem, Leuleseged, Temina, Kinnon

2 Title Already being implemented in 35 watersheds in six regions Community-based Watershed Management Approach A) Watershed Management 1. capacity building sub-component 2. community land and gully rehabilitation 3. farm land and homestead development 4.community infrastructure support B) rural land certification and administration C) project management, coordination PROJECT COMPONENTS

3 Title PRIORITIES FOR LEARNING: INTERVENTIONS interventions: Project will finance : 1) community involved and approved implementation plan 2)training of lower-level experts and farmers 3) Provision of equipment freely for land management activitie 4) technical advice support 5)communal and individual land certification 6)Provision of improved seeds, tree seedlings, livestock hybrids 7) Payment to farmers for labor spent on communal lands

4 Title What is the impact of the community based watershed management approach on the sustainability of land management in watersheds? Does linking certification of community and household lands with community watershed management improve outcomes? Are males and females affected differently by land certification in terms of investment in land management and use? Are males and females affected differently by homestead development activities? EVALUATION QUESTIONS

5 Title 1. POLITICALLY FEASIBLE: Matching of 35 treatment watersheds with 35 others. Difference in difference. Match based on most important variables (soil quality, population density, altitude, accessability, topography, rainfall, etc) Collect baseline data using Central Statistical Agency (2009) and follow up data at mid-term (2011) and project completion (2015). 2. RIGOROUS BUT NOT POLITICALLY FEASIBLE: Phase treatment in over 5 years within the 35 watersheds * Match the 17 best pairs and randomize one to treatment in the first phase, one to control (and this is treated in the second phase) EVALUATION DESIGN

6 Title HOUSEHOLD SURVEYS: Random sample household survey (# to be determined) in treatment and matched comparison watersheds: OUTCOMES Production, Income, Private investment in farm land Extra labor spent on communal work, tenure-related issues, land area under sustainable land management practices PROCESS -Planning and implementation processes -Oversample womenheaded households Data are aggregated by gender. LAND DATA: Remote sensing to measure vegetation cover index SAMPLING AND DATA

7 Title Baseline will be made available in the end of 2009. Midterm impact evaluation survey by independent body in 2011 and project completion IE in 2015. TIMELINE FOR IMPACT EVALUATION

8 Title Data collection: CSA Design and oversight by a team comprising of staffs of the bank, development partners like GTZ, WFP and staffs of the project team and MoARD. Alternatively, some of the analysis work can be outsourced to a specialized agency like EDRI, AAU. IMPACT EVALUATION TEAM: STAFFING

9 Title Baseline survey data and summary: about 350,000 USD from the project budget Two follow-up rounds of surveys (without analysis) tentatively assigned 100,000USD each from project budget (additional funding may be required) Comprehensive analysis: Funds to be identified from other sources. Remote sensing data: to be identified from other sources or financed by other sources. BUDGET
