APFED Project Final Evaluation Report 2011 6. Efficiency of project operational strategies Multiple strategies were applied by the project which include village based risk and resource mapping; village based organization development; community awareness creation; positive discrimination policy application to women’s participation; establishment of community based early warning systems and linking it with the DMIC; receiving flood early warning 72 hours in advance; linkage building with upazilla government departments for better access to government services; coordination with UP; establishment of village based EW board; hydroponics cultivation; raising homesteads; linking indigenous and scientific knowledge, and promoting personal hygiene, access to safe drinking water etc. The project also has engaged multiple stakeholders which include especially the government machinery that is often neglected by the NGO-led activities in most of the developing countries. This has brought great visibility to the project activities in the district. 7. Effectiveness The project has created the following positive effects: Augmentation of knowledge and awareness among the community about climate risk reduction: From the field visits and interviews, it was observed that the project has contributed to the knowledge and awareness among the community members on various issues related to the climate change and related driving forces and needed adaptation mechanisms. Improvement in mitigation measures and Emergency Response: The project has contributed to the improved emergency response and disaster mitigation efforts. The Figure 19 indicates responses from the community members on the impact of the project in terms of the risk reduction. The community members were of the opinion that raising the cattle shed has contributed to a sense of security to them since the loss of cattle and other assets were one of the major concerns for them during the floods. Following the cattle shed raising, the preparedness activities have contributed to the next biggest sense of security to them since they opined that the preparedness would help them to avoid any kind of ‘surprises’. 35

Strengthening institutional linkage and coordinated effort on climate risk reduction issue among relevant stakeholders at union, sub district and district level: responses of stakeholders presented in Tables 4 and 5 indicate that the project has made efforts towards institutional linkage building among relevant stakeholders. Responses cited in the table 4 indicate that the project has transformed the culture of non-collaboration into a culture of greater collaboration between government agencies, media, NGOs and communities at the district and upazilla (sub-district) level. It has also activated UDMC and UZDMC. However, stakeholders have suggested that besides event wise discussion and sharing, it would have been better to establish a quarterly sharing mechanism by forming multistakeholder forum of sharing at upazilla and district level. The project has brought the communities together and instilled the sense of collaboration and coordination among them.
