This resource introduces Causality Assessment for Landscape Interventions (CALI), an approach developed by UNDP to support adaptive management of projects that aim to reduce deforestation at the landscape or jurisdictional level.
The approach was developed within the framework of the GEF-funded Good Growth Partnership (GGP).
Interesting features of the approach with potential application to other types of interventions and evaluations include:
- Developing and updating a landscape system map, which describes the complex system dynamics driving deforestation;
- Identifying project impact areas;
- Developing and refining project impact pathways;
- Refining the theory of change to reflect the project impact pathways;
- Facilitating collaborative sensemaking processes involving diverse stakeholders in all these activities.
The CALI resource was officially launched in October 2023 in a public webinar. You can watch the recording below:
