Bhutan Trust Fund for Environmental Conservation (BTFEC) in collaboration with National Soil Service Centre (NSSC), and Gross National Happiness Commission (GNHC) has undertaken the Evaluation and Learning (E&L) activity with financial support from Climate Investment Funds (CIF) for the project ‘Evaluation of Sustainable Land Management (SLM) and innovative financing to enhance climate resilience and food security in Bhutan’.
The overall objectives of the project were to study the effectiveness of SLM projects by mapping and establishing the baseline data from existing sites; stocktake best practices of SLM projects and streamline them into national plans, policies and programs for scaling up of SLM; document and share experiences from SLM projects outside Bhutan; and undertake feasibility study for establishing innovating financing mechanisms for climate change and SLM.
