GEF IWCAM establishing suite of indicators

The GEF-IWCAM Project Coordinating Unit, consultants hired for this activity, Demonstration Projects and Participating Countries (PCs) are working together to develop a suite of indicators.

The first step in this process was to determine the baseline. To do this the Project surveyed all PCs regarding their current tracking of indicators and other data. This provides a “snapshot” at the beginning of the GEF-IWCAM project against which comparisons can be made at a later date, or at different stages.

Currently, GEF-IWCAM is compiling a template of key indicators related to institutions, policy, legislation, community participation and stakeholder involvement, atmosphere, biodiversity, coastal zones, freshwater, land, natural disasters, sanitation and human health, population, poverty level, land tenure, etc. This template will be evaluated at a Workshop of experts in early 2008. It will then be further refined and presented to the PCs.
