A field practitioner's guide: Institutional and organizational analysis and capacity strengthening
The purpose of this Guide is to support institutional and organizational analysis and strengthening (IOA/S) for design and implementation of programmes and projects.
The Guide is designed to be a practical, hands-on set of directions to those needing to answer the following questions: “how to go about doing institutional and organizational analysis? And once I’ve done it, how do I go about using this analysis to promote sustainable institutions and organizations?”
This is intended as a user-friendly Guide, the use of which could help identify strategic partners and key areas for intervention at COSOP level; to deepen the COSOP analysis at the design stage by generating interventions that support sustainable institutions and organizations, and progress
at implementation stage should be easier to monitor and evaluate effectively.
A time of transition: Agricultural development and rural poverty reduction in the Near East and North Africa
with small-scale farmers in 122 countries and territories around the world to help
them overcome rural poverty and increase their food and nutrition security. IFAD
has invested a total of about US$15.6 billion in grants and low-interest loans to
developing countries, reaching more than 400 million people.
Agricultural development can be a major driver of poverty reduction. IFAD acts as
an advocate for poor rural people, helping to create an enabling environment – with
appropriate policies, know-how, finance, infrastructure and market access – for
them to improve their lives and livelihoods.
Investing in the future: Agricultural development and rural poverty reduction in Europe and Central Asia
The International Fund for Agricultural Development works with small-scale farmers in 98 countries and territories around the world to help them overcome rural

La présente brochure met en lumière les raisons justifiant l'utilisation des FGP et examine les différents types d'accords de garantie ainsi que leurs forces, leurs faiblesses et les possibilités qu'ils offrent. Elle résume en outre l'expérience acquise au niveau mondial en matière de FGP. Elle a été rédigée à partir de consultations et d'études sur dossier guidées par les documents sur la Politique du FIDA en matière de finance rurale (2009) et les Outils décisionnels du FIDA en matière de finance rurale (2010).
Leçons apprises - Organisations financières à assise communautaire
Pour réduire la pauvreté, l'un des outils essentiels consiste à ouvrir l'accès au système financier pour ceux qui en sont exclus. Les organisations financières à assise communautaire (community-based financial organizations – CBFO) sont souvent les seules structures disponibles pour fournir aux ruraux pauvres les services financiers essentiels, surtout dans les zones éloignées dépourvues d'infrastructures.

Strong links to markets for poor rural producers are essential to increasing agricultural income, generating economic growth in rural areas and reducing hunger and poverty. Every product that is sold locally, nationally or internationally is often part of an agricultural value chain (VC). From a development perspective, VCs are one of the instruments through which market forces can be harnessed to benefit poor rural women and men – not just producers, but wage earners, service providers and others.

Leçons apprises Appui des projets du FIDA aux jeunes ruraux
Le FIDA a toujours adopté une approche proactive de ciblage des ruraux pauvres de tous âges, dans le but de réduire les inégalités sociales et économiques qui contribuent à générer et perpétuer la pauvreté.
Jusqu'à une date relativement récente, l'attention portée aux besoins et attentes des jeunes était limitée, car ils n'étaient pas considérés comme des acteurs à part entière mais plutôt comme des subordonnés, des bénéficiaires indirects et ils étaient dès lors invisibles.
De tels sentiments ont radicalement changé, et les projets financés par le FIDA sont de plus en plus nombreux à prendre des dispositions spécifiques en faveur du développement de la jeunesse.

Étude de cas − Le système d’apprentissage interactif entre les sexes − Ghana, Nigéria, Ouganda, Rwanda et Sierra Leone
La méthode GALS a été mise au point dans le cadre du programme Autonomisation de l’intégration des femmes et réseautage pour la justice de genre dans le développement économique (Women’s Empowerment Mainstreaming and Networking [WEMAN]) conduit par Oxfam Novib depuis 2008 avec des partenaires locaux et Linda Mayoux. L’application de cette méthode au développement des filières a été lancée à titre pilote par Oxfam Novib et ses partenaires en Ouganda grâce à un petit don du FIDA (2009-2011). La méthode a ensuite été déployée par Oxfam Novib avec des partenaires locaux au Nigéria, en Ouganda et au Rwanda avec l’appui d’un don plus important du FIDA (2011-2014) ainsi que dans d’autres pays grâce aux cofinancements d’autres donateurs.

change. During the monsoon period, the Haor region of Bangladesh becomes
completely inundated with 4-8 metres of water for around 6-7 months of the year.
Flash fl oods are common, and in some years 80-90 per cent of crops are lost
because of extreme weather events. The situation is expected to worsen as a climate
change-related shift towards pre-monsoon rainfall is coinciding with the paddy rice
pre-harvest period. This severely affects food output in the Haor, which provides up
to 16 per cent of national rice production.

A market approach to drip irrigation
Between 2009 and 2012, the IFAD-supported Scaling up Micro-irrigation Systems (SCAMPIS) project developed a market approach for the dissemination of locally adapted drip irrigation kits.
The approach identifies the technology that is best suited to the local context and appropriate for the most vulnerable rural inhabitants. It then builds a sustainable local supply chain for the irrigation equipment that makes the technology affordable and available, not just for the duration of the project but in the long term.
In just three years, the pilot project was able to dramatically change the lives of 30,000 farmers and their families (in total, around 150,000 poor rural people) on three continents.

FAO-IFAD Using livelihood to map best investments in water
In 2005, IFAD and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) formed a partnership to promote a better understanding of the links between rural poverty, livelihoods and water access.
Together they developed an approach to map information relating to poverty, livelihood activities and water availability across sub-Saharan Africa.
By correlating this information, they have been able to substantiate context-specific proposals for water investments.

Outil d’évaluation multidimensionnelle de la pauvreté (MPAT): Guide de l’utilisateur
L’objectif final de ce Guide de l’utilisateur et du Tableur Excel qui l’accompagne est de faire du MPAT un outil réellement libre et accessible à tous, afin que toute institution ou agence, quelle que soit son échelle, puisse mettre en œuvre son propre MPAT sans appui externe. Depuis la publication en 2009 de la version “bêta», nous nous sommes employés à mettre à jour et à améliorer la méthodologie du MPAT en intégrant les commentaires et les leçons apprises par d’autres utilisateurs en y incorporant les résultats de nos propres tests itératifs au Bangladesh et au Mozambique. Au cours des pages suivantes, nous expliquerons qu’est-ce MPAT, comment il fonctionne et de quelle façon il est utilisé en fournissant étape par étape des instructions, des documents et d’autres sources de formation.
