| Lessons | |
|---|---|
| Findings |
| Recommendations | |
|---|---|
| 1 | The project’s scope included the tobacco sector. However, after the survey investigation, it was found that tobacco producers do not use endosulfan. This problem should be spotted before project design and implementation. The recommendation is a feasibility study or a pre-analysis of the sectors. |
| 2 | This project has a positive impact on the environment but the impact on climate change mitigation and adaptation is unclear. Recommendations are to estimate GHG emissions reduction and adopt a strategy to mitigate the impact of climate change on the project sites. |
| 3 | The gender issue is important for the development of modern Chinese society. For this reason, the project should take this topic seriously. The recommendation is to find solutions to enhance gender equality and women’s empowerment within the project. |
| 4 | 4.1 The project should prepare a well-written lesson learned report. This important document will be useful for the PMU and for similar projects in the country and abroad. 4.2 The project should hold a workshop or prepare a document about a comprehensive exit strategy to ensure the long-time sustainability of results |
