The programme
• Six-year initiative (August 2013 to July 2019) funded by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
(MoFA) of the Netherlands and World Vision Australia (WVA).
• The World Agroforestry Centre (ICRAF) is the overall implementing agency working
with a Consortium of 21 NGOs

3. Transforming Lives and Landscapes with Trees
The programme
Vision: Households residing in arid and semi arid areas
have transitioned from subsistence farming and
emergency aid to sustainable rural development
• Through increasing food and water security, enhancing
market access, and strengthening the local economy for
different categories of farmers.
• Implemented in 110 sites across 5 countries
• Informed by farmer priorities
• Site based integration and saturation of
interventions
• Scaling up what works

• Is there something the farmers and team are not absolutely
confident about the selected options with regards to i) applicability
(where does it work best), ii) application (how is it implemented)
and, iii) effectiveness (where and when does it give desired
outcomes)?
• Are there differing opinions among i) farmers, ii) extension/
technical experts, and iii) between farmers and technical experts ?
• Is there another way of implementing the option?

• Opportunities and

• Process not

39. Transforming Lives and Landscapes with Trees
Outcome 6
More supportive/appropriate policies & wider conducive institutional
environment for wide uptake of evidence
In the Sahel countries contributed to
• improvements in land tenure security,
• revitalization of land tenure commissions (CoFo) at village levels.
Kenya the main achievement
• domesticating the Water Act that empowers Water Resource Users Associations
• formation of village and ward level development committees and stakeholder forums for
improved coordination, cooperation and service delivery
41. Transforming Lives and Landscapes with Trees
Lessons and insights
• Options by context framework allowed promotion of locally suited and priority interventions to
farmers and cultivated a sense of ownership among the farmers and it is expected that the farmers will
sustain the programme results
• Funding research in development
• Integration of research and learning contingent on funds availability
• Limited funds constrained generation of evidence and scaling
• Need for proactive gender and social inclusion strategy
• Relatively fewer women engages -needed targeted efforts to influence and challenge existing gender
and social norms to allow women to participate and make decision about household resource
allocation including labour
42. Transforming Lives and Landscapes with Trees
Lessons and insights
• Meticulous partner selection is critical for consortium delivery
• Innovative delivery requires more than capacity, needs learning, ability, willingness and ability to
change, adapt
• Proper functioning of country level consortiums was key and this was not achieved in all the
countries affecting programme delivery
• Limited staffing and technical capacity in some the country teams
• DryDev not benefiting from partner development infrastructure, always treated as separate unit
• Programme governance and oversight critical in mobilising and directing technical support
• Clear separation of responsibilities, roles among the three tier structure, implementing agency,
national lead organization and implementing partner
• Responsibilities should be accompanied by adequate resoures at all levels
• Implementation time frame
• The extended inception period rendered the implementation quite short, when interventions need longer term
investment to deliver impacts
43. Transforming Lives and Landscapes with Trees
Lessons and insights
• Enabling sub national governance systems can make the ultimate difference
• Subnational governance systems and existence of stakeholders with capacity to engage with and leverage
resources to the programme played a key role in the success of the East Africa Programme
• Effective extension and facilitation are key for success
• DryDev relied on grassroots extension service, often weak or inexistent
• Each country teams designed technology transfer models and methods centred on farmer-to-farmer
extension, with variable degrees of success
Land tenure
• Can influence the success and appropriate strategy to design watershed management
interventions; it took longer to negotiate approach in the private land in Kenya
• Scale of intervention for natural resources management
• DryDev used the sub-catchment watershed scale to implement community-based landscape
restoration commonly used in Eastern Africa, Sahelian concept was not easily implemented
44. Transforming Lives and Landscapes with Trees
Key message
• Contextual tailoring of interventions, bottom up processes and co-learning
approaches enhance farmer-stakeholders interaction and technology
uptake/ adoption –builds confidence
• Generating evidence on what works where for who is critical for learning,
adoption and scaling in mega development projects
• Successful scaling of technologies require massive local level participation
facilitated by enduring local institutions including farmer organisations,
subnational governments and strategic stakeholders with capacity to
leverage resources
