Has the Global Environmental Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Project Objective? Yes Board Approved Revised Global Environmental Objective (If project is formally restructured) To expand the area under sustainable land and water management in selected watersheds.

Satisfactory Overall Performance. Project overall performance is satisfactory. Achievement of Project targets is consistent with the Project stage and disbursements to date. Spatial development activities, implemented by the Savannah Accelerated Development Authority (SADA), have progressed significantly after a long initial delay. Based on the progress report and mission findings in the field, implementation of the core SLWM activities through sub-projects is on track (these are implemented by the Ministry of Environment, Science, Technology and Innovation, Ministry of Food and Agriculture, and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). High demand for project support to SLWM activities was noted among the new and old beneficiary communities, exceeding available funding about two-fold. Implementation of biodiversity activities by the Wildlife Division of the Forestry Commission continues experiencing delays. Sustainable forest management activities implemented by the Forest Services Division of the Forestry Commission have been initiated and are progressing according to the work plan. Activities related to monitoring of SLWM implemented by the EPA are progressing with minor delays. Implementation of Payment of Environmental Services was deferred until the concept is sufficiently mature and ready for implementation.
