The appraisal served two primary purposes. Firstly, it aimed to provide an independent assessment of the feasibility and implementation potential of the Local Adaptation to Climate Change (LACC) project, finalizing the Project Document (PD). This involved evaluating project relevance, implementation strategy, organizational structures, resource allocation, sustainability, and effectiveness in the given context. It also assessed the integration of cross-cutting objectives into the PD and addressed specific issues identified during the planning process, considering recommendations from the Quality Assurance Group of MFA Finland. Possible problem areas were pointed out, and workable solutions to the problems were presented. The Appraisal team collaborated with MFA and the Government of Nepal to make necessary PD revisions based on their decisions.

Secondly, the appraisal reviewed opportunities to broaden cooperation between Finland and Nepal beyond traditional development cooperation, particularly under Finland's Country Programme. This review contributed to the appraisal and finalization of the LACC PD, emphasizing practical proposals for the implementation strategy. The appraisal explored possibilities for cooperation in various sectors like natural resources management, WASH, climate solutions, green economy, circular economy, bio- and agro-technology, aiming to diversify cooperation modalities and partnerships involving the public and private sectors, academia, and civil society. The appraisal team presented comprehensive recommendations to support Team Finland's efforts, utilizing ODA instruments to assist Nepal's transition from Least Developed Country status by 2026 to a Lower Middle Income Country by 2030. This review aided Finland in supporting Nepal's graduation and navigating the post-graduation landscape to achieve its national sustainable development priorities. The relevant recommendations were translated into practical steps and activities to be included in the LACC PD, as applicable, taking into account the scope and modality of the Project.

The mid-term review of the project “Renewable Energy for Rural Development 2+ (RERD2+)” was commissioned by Enabel. The project was initiated in 2018 as a continuation of the “Renewable Energy for Development Project 1”. The Project is scheduled for completion by the end of 2024.

The mid-term review served the purposes of accountability, learning, and steering. It addressed the standard evaluation criteria, The purpose of this mid-term review was to support the project towards a successful completion. The work has included the desk review of documents, field visits to the sites of implementation, as well as extensive interviews and triangulation of data, observations, and collected views to formulate findings.

The main objectives of this evaluation are to provide the European Union departments concerned, interested stakeholders and the general public with:

• an overall independent analysis of the performance of the Global Climate Change Alliance Programme in Mali phase 2 (GCCA-Mali2), paying particular attention to its different levels of results in comparison with its expected objectives, and the reasons for these results;
• the main lessons learned, conclusions and recommendations to improve current and future interventions.

The main objectives of this evaluation were to provide the relevant services of the European Union, the interested stakeholders with:

• an overall independent assessment of the performance of the “Support to enhanced cooperation in sustainable transboundary water management in the Mekong Basin”, paying particular attention to its different levels of results measured against its expected objectives and the reasons underpinning such results;
• key lessons learned, conclusions and related recommendations in order to improve future interventions (this will include the presentation of options for potential future follow-up intervention(s)).

This evaluation fed into the EU’s assessment of its engagement in the Mekong sub-region as well as potential follow-up intervention(s) that could possibly be financed under the Regional Multi-annual

Indicative Programme for Asia and the Pacific 2021-2027 (subject to the availability of funds). On this basis, the evaluation was forward-looking and took into account the EU’s bilateral cooperation with the countries of the Mekong, other relevant EU regional projects and programmes (for e.g. on forestry, wildlife, safe food systems), and potential for a Team Europe Initiative stemming from possible synergies with EU Member States’ relevant support (as the case may be).

The purpose of this project was to provide effective management of areas of the ecological network, with the aim of contributing to a favorable state of preservation of endangered and rare species and habitat types at a biogeographical level through the development of management plans.

Group 2 consisted of the development of 37 management plans, which set out the goals and activities required for the conservation and management of the selected ecological network areas, enabling monitoring of the implementation of these activities and evaluation of their effectiveness.

The project consisted of 4 components:

• Component 1: Development of final drafts of the management plans
• Component 2: Engagement of Planning Assistants
• Component 3: Organisation of workshops
• Component 4: Engagement of Experts in Ecology of Species and Habitats

The specific objectives of this contract are as follows:

• Identify, collect, analyse, assess and synthetize all the necessary information for the formulation of the new Programme. This includes the analysis of the possible implementation modalities for the future Programme.
• Write the Action Document of this new Programme according to the template (to be provided).
