Final Evaluation of Local Climate Adaptive Living Facility (LoCAL) in 14 countries across Asia, Africa and Asia-Pacific; Deep dives in Bhutan, Tanzania, Niger and Tuvalu

UNCDF designed Local Climate Adaptive Living Facility (LoCAL) in 2011 to build climate-resilient communities and promote local economies. This included establishing a standard, internationally recognised country-based mechanism to channelise climate finance for local government authorities in developing countries, particularly the Least Developed Countries. 

We have been assigned by UNCDF to conduct the final evaluation of the LoCAL Global Portfolio. The evaluation will be done at three levels:  

• Macro-Level (Portfolio and Global Level)  
• Meso-Level (National Level) 
• Local-Level (Local Government Institutions & beneficiaries) against the OECD-DAC evaluation criteria.  

In addition to the portfolio evaluation, we will also be undertaking in-country deep dives in four countries namely, Bhutan, Niger, Tanzania and Tuvalu.
