[null,null,"Project Summary: ","The overall project objective is to increase the adaptive capacity and resilience of small-scale agriculture producers to the impacts of climate change and its variability, particularly those deriving from the increase in the intensity of hydro-meteorological events such as floods and droughts. The project has three components: 1) Improvement of the adaptive capacity to climate change and its variability of small-scale producers of North-eastern Argentina; 2) Strengthening of information, monitoring and climate information management systems; and 3) Generation of local and regional capabilities on the impact of climate change and its variability, and implementation of adaptation measures.\n\n\n"]

Such increase was dismissed. In April 2015, the request was filed once again. At last, in May 2015, after presenting the case before the National Park Administration (APN, in Spanish), owners of a donation which will not be executed in 2015, part of the funding was transferred. Such process is an Administrative Ruling in nature, which is pending approval.

[null,null,null,"The Project is rated as MS given that most of the activities anticipated do not show any substantial progress for the period. The main reason that prevented progress at a higher pace was a problem of budget availability. Due to an internal problem, by the end of 2014, when budgets are requested of the Ministry of Economy, that pertaining to INTA and to ORA was rated as “not budgetary” of the UCAR. This led to those budget authorization requests to be overlooked, which gave rise to a budgetary restriction during the year, which was made up for with funds transferred from other donations. \nThe positive progress of the period are mostly related to greater fluidity in the project procurement and administrative procedures, as well as an improvement in the articulation and communication between the executing parties and the NIE for a successful implementation of the project. \n\nIn this regard, the problems observed during the first year of implementation were overcome, and the mechanisms for equipment procurement as well as other administrative mechanisms, deemed to be slow and too bureaucratic, were adjusted during the period. As for the progress of the activities, during the period, the main progress was achieved in the activities of the subcomponent of Implementation of improvements in the efficient use, catchment, harvesting and storage of water, particularly regarding the retrofitting of roofs to catch and store water.  The goal anticipated for this subcomponent is expected to have been even exceeded. Also, the activities of Integration and expansion of the agro/hidrometeorological networks for the NEA region have made significant progress attaining 80% of the goal anticipated as regards simple meteorological stations converted to full stations, and new 6 automatic stations were installed, which amounts to 40% of the final goal.

Also, the delay of the period does not jeopardize the accomplishment of the results anticipated, which are estimated to be reached given the progress of processes and actions of the project surveyed so far. In this regard, the activities of component 1, which had already started, continued to move forward and 70% of the goal could be attained in terms of families assisted through well boring. The activities contribute to enhance the agricultural production and to reduce economic and social vulnerability of producers/families in which the project’s contribution (material, technical and human) is perceived as essential.

Also, progress was made in inter-institutional negotiations to integrate meteorological networks in Argentina’s northeast that will allow sustainability of actions on the long term. This way, even though the activities of component 2.2.

[null,null,"Implementation and Adaptive Management","Response"]
[null,null,"What implementation issues/lessons, either positive or negative, affected progress?","Progress was mainly affected in an adverse manner by the lack of available funds (see explanation below). This caused involuntary delays in the performance of the activities anticipated. On the side of positive lessons learned, the permanent articulation between the various executing parties and the NIE made it possible to move forward more fluidly in terms of project administration. Also, special emphasis was placed on articulating with other institutions in the territory including but not limited to local municipalities and other public institutions such as the INTI or ministries of production, which also brought to the table technical or financial resources, which allowed leveraging the project actions and achieving greater coverage and effect in the area of intervention. This also enables the sustainability of the actions in the long run. ",null,null,null,"\n \n\n"]
[null,null,"Were there any delays in implementation?  If so, include any causes of delays. What measures have been taken to reduce delays?"," Indeed, there were delays in the implementation during the 2015 period due to problems of fund availability. By the end of 2014, the budget of UCAR programs and projects was raised, which later gave rise to the opening of a line of credit to use throughout the year. Upon making such application, the execution of INTA and ORA was treated as non-budgetary. That is why lending was authorized only for UCAR execution. Upon detecting such problem in February 2015, a letter was sent to the Ministry of Agriculture, Farming and Fishery, in order to request before the National Budget Office an increase in lending for Fuente 21. Such increase was dismissed. In April 2015, the request was filed once again. At last, in May 2015, after presenting the case before the National Park Administration (APN, in Spanish), owners of a donation which will not be executed in 2015, part of the funding was transferred. Such process is an Administrative Ruling in nature, which is pending approval. The Ministry of Economy must sign it before it can be referred to Presidency for the Chief of Cabinet of Ministers to sign it. Also, a new increase was applied for in July this year for Fuente 21. It is in the original stage of the processing.\n\n\n"]
[null,null,"Describe any changes undertaken to improve results on the ground or any changes made to project outputs (i.e. changes to project design)","One of the actions implemented to improve the results of the projects was the beginning of the on-site visits by project coordination (INTA and UCAR) to detect potential changes of design aimed at improving results. Also, an external consultant was hired to conduct a permanent follow-up in the territory and collect sensitive information for the improvement of the project’s inter-institutional management.                                                           In addition, an external consultant was hired to perform follow-up visits to the different locations where activities are being executed. Such consultant collects information on the problems and delays, and they also verify the actions performed and obtain information on gender issues and on how those intended as beneficiaries make the project their own or not. Such information is being processed and shall be soon available for its presentation and analysis.\nWork continued in the form of meetings between INTA and UCAR to overhaul the administrative flow path with the purpose of shortening terms for agreement performance, and advanced payment of traveling expenses to technicians in the project’s area could be maintained. All of the foregoing has led to improve project’s results. Also, the thorough follow-up has continued with INTA’s local technicians and providers awarded with the contracts/bids to ensure success of the scheduled goals.  \nDuring the period considered, annual planning was performed with all coordinators of PRETs [Regional Projects with a Territorial Approach] of the INTA in the project’s area. Such consolidated information has been strategic for the preparation of the bidding documents for the purchase of materials so as to reduce administrative times for execution of the scheduled works.\n"]
[null,null,"How have gender considerations been taken into consideration during the reporting period? What have been the lessons learned as a consequence of inclusion of such considerations on project performance or impacts?","Specific training on gender was performed in December. A workshop was performed on “Sensitization and introduction to the topic of Climate Change Effects on gender gaps”. Such workshop had a methodology that included time for the development of theoretical contents and other times for participatory debates around topics. The purpose proposed was to question the effects of climate change using the gender transversal approach. Gender approach: What is gender? Difference between sex and gender, natural vs. culturally constructed; Sex-Gender system. What are and where do gender gaps stem from? Some tools to identify gender gaps; What effect does Climate Change pose over gender gap? The role of female technicians in gender-based Rural Development. \nA new training is planned for the next period, with the objective of addressing this perspective in greater depth."]
