En 2017, le FIDA a commandé une évaluation du quatrième cycle de l'IPAF, portant sur l'examen et l'analyse des résultats obtenus par les partenaires régionaux dans la mise en œuvre du Mécanisme ainsi que des résultats obtenus dans l'exécution des projets financés par l'IPAF entre 2015 et 2018.

Las organizaciones indígenas parte del IPAF han identificado los resultados más relevantes de sus proyectos.

The Indigenous Peoples Assistance Facility (IPAF)1 finances small projects designed and implemented directly by indigenous peoples’ communities and their organizations. The projects are selected through global calls for proposals, based on a competitive process. In managing the IPAF when it was established in 2007, IFAD realized that the Facility was not only a grant-making mechanism, but it also contained a wealth of knowledge derived from the project proposals themselves. With its limited funding, the IPAF can support only a small number of these proposals. Thus, a knowledge-harvesting mechanism was set up with funding from the Initiative for Mainstreaming Innovation (IMI).
