Brief DescriptionThis five year programme provides assistance to the Rwanda Environment Management Authority (REMA)

towards achieving its statutory mandate of identifying and fragile ecosystems. The programme is also aligned tothe second phase of the MDG-linked Economic Development and Poverty Reduction Strategy (EDPRS ll), theGreen Growth and Climate Resilience Strategy, Vision zozo and commitments to the Convention onBiodiversity.

The support will build on the successes of two successful UNDP programmes: DEMP ll (which supporteddecentralisation as a vehicle for sustainable growth and poverty reduction) and the PEI (which enhanced thecontribution of sound environmental management to poverty reduction, sustainable economic Arowth andachievement of the MDGs).

The programme will support innovative approaches to restore and conserve fragile island and wetlandecosystems, promote the sustainable management of natural resources and support livelihood diversification toenhance household incomes and reduce the number of people dependent on subsistence agriculture.Knowledge management component of the programme will track progress, assess impacts and capture anddisseminate lessons learned to improve the approach, establish good practice and facilitate up-scalingecosystem rehabilitation and protection for pro-poor green growth.The program will be implemented under the National Execution modality, with a total budget of US$5,4o3,ooofinanced by UNDP (USs 5 million) with an in kind contribution of USs 4o3,ooo from the Government of Rwanda.

1. SITuATIOTv AruALYSIS

Rwanda achieved a sustained high economic growth of 8.2 percent over the completed first phase ofEDPRS zoo9-zo:-z, lifted a million people out of poverty, and improved human development, genderequality and other MDG-linked goals. The Government of Rwanda has in the last five years made

significant progress towards sustainable management of the environment and natural resources as well.Policies were put in place including Rwanda's the Forest Policy (zotz), the National Land Policy (zoo4), theMining Policy (zoro) and the National Policy and Strategy on Energy. Policy instruments adopted include

the zor3-zor8 Environment and Natural Resources Sector (ENR) sector strategic plan and the Green

Growth and Climate Resilience Strategy (zorr).

However, the poverty rate in the country at 45percent in zorzlr3 and inequality as measured by the Gini

co-efficient of income inequality at o.49 in zoro/rr as well as unemployment especially among the youthstill remain high. Biomass fuel dependency for domestic requirements, reliance on rain-fed subsistence

agriculture, high population density living in unplanned settlements maintain serious pressure on thecountry's natural resources mainly characterized by deforestation and the degradation of land and waterresources. Over time human development has encroached into fragile ecosystems including wetlands,lakes and islands.

Climate change impacts are adding to the anthropogenic stresses on natural ecosystems. The

temperature has increased by r.4oC since r97o and an increasingly unpredictable temporal rainfall patternis observed throughout Rwanda (periods of intense rainfall as well as longer periods of drought) thatadversely affects food production and water security (for drinking water supplies, irrigation and hydro-power generation'). By zo5o rainfall could increase by zopercent (on r97o levels). ln the mountainousareas of the country, over-cultivation combined with an increasing trend in rainfall intensity has given rise

to high levels of run-off, erosion, landslides and flooding during the intense rainfall events that have

become more prevalent inthe lastdecade.ln otherpartsof the country, particularlythe Eastern province,

droughts have become more frequent impacting on agricultural production and food security. Thepotential economic costs of climate change in Rwanda are estimated to be around lpercent of GDP per

annum'.

The Rwanda Environment Management Authority (REMA) as the statutory authority responsible for theimplementing environmental policy and legislation has the mandate under Articles 5z and 53 of OrganicLaw N" o4lzoo5 of oSlo4lzoo5 determining the modalities of protection, conservation and promotion ofenvironment in Rwanda, to identifli reserved areas for protection, conservation or rehabilitation ofecosystems; forests, woodlands, species of biodiversity and protected zones; monuments, historical sites

and landscapes; water systems and its quality; as well as banks and shores, rivers, streams, lakes, plains,

valleys and wetlands.

Key achievements with regard to ecosystem rehabilitation and protection of the over the last 5 years ofEDPRS I implementation were possible with the support of UNDP in the collaborative framework of thesecond phase of the Decentralization and Environment Management Project (DEMP) Phase ll that run

from zooS to zor3. Key achievements included the following:

Successful resettlement of over r,zoo family dwellings from the dangerously steep slopes ofMount Rubavu, Western Province into a safe umudugudu of Karukogo within the neighbourhoodincluding construction of 35 houses for poor families with rainwater harvesting installations;

o Mugesera lakeshores (45V0 of target achieved);

o Rehabilitation of Lake Kivu watersheds (rro % of target achieved)

o Lake Kivu tributaries (2660/o of target achieved)

Promoted adequate sustained capacity for effective environmental governance and decentralizedservice delivery;

Serious challenges remain with respect to ecosystem health requirements including the following:

lncreased pressure on renewable and non-renewable natural resources by high population growthand unsustainable agricultural practices;

Deforestation and loss of biodiversity;

High vulnerability to climate change;

Development of strategic enabling tools (notably economic tools and approaches) for pro-poorenvironmentally sustainable use of natural resources in order to achieve economic transformationis still weak;

lnsufficient mainstreaming of poverty and environment objectives and climate change intodifferent sectoral and local policies;

Weak monitoring and evaluation systems;

Limited inter and intra sector coordination;

Going forward in pursuing its ecosystem rehabilitation and protection mandate in the EDPRS llframework, REMA has prioritized island and wetland ecosystems as needing urgent and critical attention.

a) ISLAND EcosYsrEMs

Rwanda has a dense hydrological network with ror lakes and 86o wetlands, covering around r6percent ofthe country's land area. The largest of the lakes is Lake Kivu which extends along Rwanda's western borderto the west of the Congo-Nile Ridge and whose waters are shared with the Democratic Republic of theCongo. gopercent of Rwandan waters drain into the Nile basin to the East of the Congo-Nile Ridgethrough two main rivers, Nyabarongo and Akagera. The Nyabarongo River is joined by the Akanyaru Rivernear the City of Kigali to become the Akagera, a main tributary of Lake Victoria. The Nile basin has manysmall lakes (including Burera, Ruhondo, Cyohoha South, Mugesera, Muhazi, Rwampanga, Mihindi andMirayi).

Within these lake ecosystems, there are numerous islands that are significant repositories of biologicaldiversity and natural beauty. Although many of the islands have a history of human habitation, populationpressure (from the natural growth rate and the influx of displaced people after the 1994 Genocide againstthe Tutsi) has led to an expansion in agriculture, cattle rearing and firewood colleciion resulting in anoverexploitation of natural resources and destruction of important island habitats.

Moreover, in recent years a number of poorly planned settlement and tourist developments on the islandshave caused environmental degradation. Across Rwanda, there have been 782 residential and touristresort developments on various islands as recorded in the following Districts: 49 in Nyamasheke, q3 in

Burera, r5z in Musanze and 4rr in Bugeseral. These developments have involved the clearance ofvegetation, dredging and filling, canalization, gravel extraction, and sand and coral rock mining associatedwith the construction of tourist resorts, hotels and other businesses. These activities have impacted on theislands' upland watersheds, freshwater wetlands, beaches, shorelines and lake grass beds. Many of thesenew developments lack proper waste management facilities resulting in the discharge of wastewaterdirectly to streams, canals or directly to the lakes contaminating surface waters and increasingeutrophication.

Recent inventories of island biodiversity in Lake Kivu conducted in zoro and zorz revealed that someislands still contain rich plant and animal diversity, with some endemic species but that island biodiversityis severely threatened by humdn development. ln some islands invasive species have replaced much of thenatural vegetation4. Table r shows some of the islands affected by environmental degradation.

Without adequate protection, it is likely that the natural heritage and the eco-tourism potential associatedwith these islands will soon disappear. Since zoo8, habitants from several islandss have been graduallyresettled on the mainland but, due to a scarcity of land, have continued to cultivate and/or graze theiranimals on the islands. A longer-term solution is needed to conserve the biodiversity and the richlandscapes while at the same time ensuring that the island inhabitants have sustainable livelihoodopportunities that don't involve further degradation of island habitats. Any intervention must deliversignificant benefits to both island communities and the mainland communities where they are resettled atthe same time as protecting the islands.

b) Werlnruo EcosysrEMs

Wetlands comprise around rrpercent of Rwanda's land mass (86o wetlands, covering a total surface of z7B

536 ha)6and are the most physically and chemically heterogeneous of all aquatic ecosystems in Rwanda.These wetlands are highly productiveTand play an important role in regulating and purifying waterflows(removing sediments, nutrients, toxic substances and other pollutants in surface run-off), controllingsedimentation of downstream watercourses, ground water recharge, biodiversity, nutrient re-cycling andspawning grounds for many fish species as well as breeding environment for birds including criticallythreatened migratory birds. As carbon reservoirs, wetlands also help to stabilise the climate and attenuateclimate changes.

ln Rwanda, the critical role of wetlands in ensuring the effective functioning of Rwanda's hydrologicalnetwork is important for agricultural production, hydro-power production and domestic water supply (as

wetlands facilitate the regulated movement of large volumes of water into the underground aquifers,thereby recharging the water table). ln Rwanda, the majority of wetlands are essentially seasonal with thewater table being near or above the lowest ground surface during the wet season and do not generallyhave large flood plains (generally less than zoom wide)e.

Rwandan wetlands host a wide variety of flora and fauna including many migratory birds and other speciesprotected by CITES'.. Wetlands also supply a source of wildlife, fish, wood and several non-timberproducts that are widely used by local communities and wetland soils can provide fertile conditions foragricultural production when properly used. They can also provide recreational and tourism (bird-watching, game viewing and sport fishing) benefits due to the variety of wildlife found in these areaslx.

As rainfall has become more unpredictable, many farmers have begun to cultivate crops such assugarcane, rice, flowers, and sweet potatoes in wetlands where the water supply is more reliable.Approximately 3opercent (9o,ooo ha) of Rwanda's wetlands area is already being used for agriculture".This has created many adverse effects including: reduced water flow downstream, declining fishproduction, a loss of biodiversity and genetic resources (including rare species) due to habitat destruction,pollution from the use of fertilisers and pesticides and a reduced capacity of these systems tomoderate/attenuate climate change. This has created significant bio-security concerns over Rwanda'sability to meet its national obligations under international conventions related to biodiversityconservation.

Climate change is expected to compound anthropogenic stresses on wetlands. lncreasing variability inprecipitation (anticipated from climate change'3) and increased droughts will exacerbate the pressure onwetlands for agricultural production further reducing the ability of wetlands to ability to filter, hold andregulate water flow (especially during extreme climatic events which are becoming more frequent) leadingto adverse effects on aquatic ecosystems as well as economic and human losses.

Aside from unsustainable agricultural practices and climate change, wetlands are also threatened bypollution (from agriculture, sewage and industry), reclamation (for settlements and road construction),invasive species, hunting, uncontrolled fishing, the collection of certain plant species and the excavation of

clay, sand and peat'4. Drains and channels have also been constructed to divert or to increase the flow ofwater out of wetlands lowering the water table drying out of the wetlands leading to a loss of biodiversity.Although 20 meter buffer zones have been established around some wetlands and agro-forestry specieshave been planted, some farmers continue to cultivate crops in these zones.

With increasing population growth important trade-offs between food security and wetlands sustainableuse and conservation are necessary's. This will require careful balancing of increasing water demand fromadjacent communities with conservation and management goals to ensure water security for downstreamuses and to maintain biodiversity. Ultimately it is vital that the productive and regulatory functions ofwetlands are not compromised. Part of this will include building capacity for wetlands management at alllevels to increase institutional sustainability, ownership, user rights and access.

This programme is builds on the successful work of DEMP ll in a continued partnership with UNDp underthe title "Supporting ecosystem rehabilitation for pro-poor green growth".

The program will contribute to Result r: lnclusive Economic Transformation the UnitedNations Development Assistance Plan (UNDAP) and its Outcome 3 of aimed at improvedsystems for sustainable management of the environment, natural resources and renewableenergy resources, energy access and energy security.

The approach will include a geo-referenced assessment of the ecological status of theBugarama wetland to be used as baseline for the preparation of a rehabilitation plan. Therehabilitation and improved management of the Bugarama wetland will be achievedthrough a community-based watershed management approach. The aim is to (i) restore theecological functions and values; (ii) conserve biodiversity in both natural and modifiedenvironments; and (iii) promote sustainable agriculture to minimise negative on and off-siteimpact. This will also require effective water demand management and use efficiency, withcareful balancing of the need to (a) protect the ecological functions of the wetland so that itcan effectively regulate flows in the watershed with (b) the needs of the poor for water tosustain livelihoods.

A baseline biophysical and socio-economic inventory of the islands in Lakes Ruhondo,Burera and Rweru will be conducted to also to inform respective re-settlement andrehabilitation plans. lmplementation of island rehabilitation plans will involve an integratedsustainable food, water and energy resettlements.

The livelihood support function will promote market-oriented, enterprise development topromote diversification out of subsistence agriculture and promote pro-poor, green growth.The support will be delivered through self-help groups and co-operatives and vocationaltraining to develop skills. Green jobs and training will be stimulated for the pooresthouseholds through public works schemes associated within wetland restoration activities.

A knowledge management strategy will also be developed and implemented to promotesharing and learning as well as to build community knowledge and capacity. Regularbriefing notes will inform policy makers and cross visits between communities will promotethe spread ofgood practice.

Four sites are proposed for pilot interventions: Burera and Ruhondo lakes (located in theNorthern districts of Burera and Musanze respectively); Lake Rweru in Bugesera district inthe Eastern Province and the Bugarama wetland in Rusizi District in the extreme south westof the country.

Lake Burera (SSoo ha) and Ruhondo (z8oo ha) are high altitude, acidic, deep lakes whichcomprise part of the Rugezi-Bulera-Ruhondo wetland complex designated by Ramsar as a

wetland of international importance in December zoo5'5. There are around 48 species ofphytoplankton from 4 families (chlorophyceous, Cyanophyceous, pyraphytes and

ln early zorz, MINIRENA commissioned a team to categorise the islands in selected waterbodies around Rwanda in order to enable land registration. The subsequent REMA reportrecommended that all 16 islands in Burera and Ruhondu Lakes should be registered as

public lands and that the resident population should be resettled on the mainland'8. Therecommendation is made on the basis of increasing threats from climate change (rising

water levels and extreme weather events), poor living conditions and low potential forsocio-economic development on the islands as well as the protection and conservation ofthe environment under the Organic law N" o4lzoo5 (article nos. 52, 53, 85, 85 and 87). Themapping of these islands revealed that the 5o m buffer zone (required on lakeshores)extends over most of the surface area of the islands.

Bugesera district is in the Eastern province but is located due south of Kigali and borderswith Burundi. The Nyabarongo River flows through district and is a source of flooding in therainy season'e. Lake Rweru in Bugesera is an important habitat for protected speciesincluding hippopotamuses, crocodiles, varans (sand crocodiles), snakes and a variety ofmigratory birds (including species on the IUCN list of protected the endangered species)and can be considered as an ecosystem of international importance under the RamsarConvention.

The lake is relatively shallow (f-Sm)with high turbidity and high phosphorous and organiccontent which results in phytoplankton that is very rich in biodiversity and flora that is

mainly dominated by papyrus with Cyperus papyrus mixed with Miscandium violaceum andNymphea nouchallif'. The lake is associated with gallery forests onshore or on small islandsand is considered to have high potential fortourism.

The Lake has two islands, Mazane and Sharita, which are located in the permanent freshwater marshes constituting the Rweru-Mugesera wetland complex. Mazane is actually an

archipelago of 3 islands. There are 4o3 very poor (falling into either category r or z of theubedehe categories) households living on the islands. A recent REMA report highlighted thepoor living conditions on the island (waterborne diseases, inadequate access to cleandrinking water, a shortage of land and inherent difficulties in installing proper sanitation)and recommended resettlement of the entire population (4o3 households) currently livingon the two islands.

The Bugarama wetland in Rusizi district in the southwest corner of Rwanda is an importantagricultural resource as it provides perfect conditions for the cultivation of wild varieties ofrice. The wetland is located in the Bugarama depression in the lmbo agro-climatic zone, at arelatively low altitude (<rooom). The soils are mineralised vertisols and vegetation found in

the wetland includes: Typha and Pragmites mauritianum2T. There are five villages with a

totalof r95 housheolds located in and around the wetlands as shown in Table 4.

Table 4: Villages located in and around Bugarama wetland in Ruzizi district (Source:REMA, zorz).

ln Rusizi district 53percent of the population is poor (including 2Tpercent which areextreme-poor) and around T8percent of the population is engaged in agriculture. The meansize of land cultivated is o.57 ha and 5zpercent cultivate less than o.3 ha. zSpercent ofhouseholds in Rusizi are headed by women and a further 5percent are de facto womenheaded households".

The wetland is threatened by human activities (due to the growing population) includingencroachment for settlement and cultivation (due to the scarcity of land), extensivedrainage or irrigation, poaching, overfishing, soil excavation etc. These human activitieshave contributed to lower volumes of water flowing out from the wetland, lower groundwater yields and disruption of the ecological services provided by wetland, habitatdestruction and loss of biodiversity, invasive species (e.9. Water hyacinth) and

deforestation. The continued degradation of the wetland is likelyto result in a further lossof biodiversity, disruptions in water supply as well as adverse economic and livelihoodimpacts on poor local communities dependent on wetland resources for food andlivelihood.

The proposed interventions are targeted at poor (category r and z) island and wetlandcommunities living in or adjacent to fragile ecosystems. However, the benefits of theecosystem management and restoration activities will accrue to a wider population livingaround the target areas due to a restoration of ecosystem services and a growth in eco-tourism. The livelihood interventions will target 92o poor households dependent of rain-fedagriculture living on and around the islands and wetlands and an additional 4ooo poorhouseholds living on the adjacent mainland in Musanze, Burere and Bugesera and areasaround the Bugarama wetland in Ruzizi. The effect of this pro-poor, green growth will be tobuild resilience to climate change and reduce the reliance on social support programmesenabling the graduation of households from extreme poverty in line with EDpRS llobjectives.

MONITORTNG FRAMEWoRK AND EVALUATIoN

The monitoring and evaluation system will be linked to the results and resource framework,annual work plans and budgets. The timely provision of results from Monitoring andEvaluation activities will enable the team to take corrective or enhancing measures as

necessary. The project will also establish a Participatory Monitoring and Evaluationsystem with beneficiary groups to enable beneficiaries to measure progress of projectinterventions. The project will employ a variety of means for data collection includingsurveys, participatory methods and case studies with project beneficiaries. The system willuse of sex and age-disaggregated indicators to track the delivery of outcomes in itsinterventions.

Overall responsibility for monitoring and evaluation will rest with the Executing Agency,REMA. Outcomes and outputs will be monitored during project with data collected,compiled and analysed by the Monitoring and Evaluation Officer on a regular basis.

ln accordance with the programming policies and procedures outlined in the UNDP UserGuide, the programme will be monitored through within the annual cycle and at the year-end. Within the annual cycle the following monitoring and evaluation activities will be

carried out:

7.. on a quafterly basis, a quality assessment shall record progress towards thecompletion of key results, based on quality criteria and methods captured in the OualityManagement table below;an lssue Log shall be activated in Atlas and updated by the Project Manager to facilitatetracking and resolution of potential problems or requests for change;

based on the initial risk analysis submitted (see annex r), a Risk Log shall be activated in

Atlas and regularly updated by reviewing the external environment that may affect theproject implementation;based on the above information recorded in Atlas, a Programme Progress Report(PPR) shall be submitted by the Project Manager to the Project Board through ProjectAssurance, using the standard report format available in the Executive Snapshot;

a project Lesson-learned Log shall be activated and regularly updated to ensure on-going learning and adaptation within the organization, and to facilitate the preparationofthe Lessons-learned Report at the end ofthe project; and

A Monitoring Schedule Plan shall be activated in Atlas and updated to track key

ma nagement actions/eve nts.

The Programme Progress Reports (PPRs) will describe progress on implementation as wellas lesson learning, a risk update and management and an ongoing assessment ofsustainability and acceptance of project interventions by the stakeholders particularly thebeneficiaries. The report will also include the expenditure report and a work plan andbudget for the following reporting period. The PPRs will include certified periodic financialstatements. ln addition, the project will commission two audits (to be conducted by an

accredited auditor) of project accounts to ensure compliance with Government rules andprocedures. The PPR's and audits will be submitted to the Project Board for regular reviewand approval. This will ensure continuous monitoring of project activities and allow forcorrective measures in due time.

Annually, the programme will prepare an Annual Review Report. The Report shall be

prepared by the Project Manager and shared with the Project Board and the Outcome

Board. As minimum requirement, the Annual Review Report shall consist of the Atlas

standard format for the OPR covering the whole year with updated information for each

above element of the OPR as well as a summary of results achieved against pre-defined

annual targets at the output level.

Based on the above report, an Annual Project Review shall be conducted during the fourth

quarter of the year or soon after, to assess the performance of the project and appraise the

Annual Work Plan (AWP) for the following year. The review will be co-ordinated by the

Monitoring and Evaluation Officer. S(he) will collect and collate indicator data and measure

performance against the baseline and targets in the Results Resource Framework. S (he)

will work closely with the Communications Officer to ensure timely and effective

communication of the results to all the key stakeholders. The assessment will include a field

survey and case studies and will report on:

progress made against the indicators, milestones and targets,

effectiveness of delivery of project outputs and efficiency of implementation and

risk management,

achievement of objectives,

identify corrective actions if needed and

Lessons learned from project design, implementation and management.

ln the last year, this review will be a final assessment. This review is driven by the Project

Board and may involve other stakeholders as required. lt shall focus on the extent to which

progress is being made towards outputs, and that these remain aligned to appropriate

outcomes. The report will summarise the results achieved (objectives, outcomes, outputs),

lessons learned, and make recommendations on any actions needed to ensure

sustainability, replicability and scaling up.

Monitoring results will be disseminated in a user-friendly format and timely manner to

project stakeholders by the Communications Officer to enable a responsive approach to

implementation and allow for troubleshooting of any problems to ensure smooth

implementation of project activities. Results and lessons learned from the project will be

periodically disseminated within and beyond the project intervention zone using a variety of

media (briefing notes, website as well as through existing information sharing networks and

forums).

The programme staff including the Project Manager will be field based and therefore able

to make regular visits to project sites. The Project Director and members of the Steering

Group (none of these positions are funded through the project) willtake part in an Annual

field visit to familiarise themselves with the project interventions on the ground and

validate the annual review

External Program Review: The program will be subject to an external program review

towards the end of its znd Year or beginning of its 3rd year. This will be the mid-term

program evaluation. The exercise will be carried out to assess the performance of this

project, progress achieved so far and assess if the program outPuts and deliverables need

adjustment whereas the final program review will be conducted toward the end of the

project lifespan.

Gishwati Land and

Water ManagementProject

Aimed at ensuring sustainable use of the Gishwati forestand implemented by MINAGRI'3 and the Ministry ofLocal Government through the Rwanda AgriculturalBoard. The project has a budget of USsz6 million and

aims to improve land productivity and reduce erosion(with bench terracing and improved land husbandry on

3o2ha) as well as increase forest cove r (loha) and

ecosystem restoration in the Gishwati Forest Ecosystem.

This includes rehabilitation zoo ha of new range land in

Gishwati and construction of feeder roads in the area.

Systems / Supportfor IntegratedWatershedManagement in

Flood Prone Areas

This project is funded by the LDCF (USsr.25 million)through GEF/UNEP and implemented by the Rwanda

Environment Management Authority in partnership withUNEP, UNDP, RAB (Rwanda Agriculture Board),

MIDIMAR, MET RWANDA and the African AdaptationProgram (AAP).

The project promotes soil conservation and improvedresource management (reforestation, radical terracing,horticulture and agroforestry) including the restorationof ecosystem functions to Karago Lake. Specifically, theproject aims to: (i) prepare an early warning and disastermanagement plan for the Gishwati forest and theCongo-Nile watershed; (ii) produce a Iand use masterplan for climate resilience; (iii) introduce improved land

use management practices; and (iv) distribute thelessons learned from pilot areas to the rest of thecou ntry.

The main outputs include: dn Early Warning System(EWS) established in Gishwati area, climate change risks

incorporated into District development planning; and

good practices to reduce vulnerability promoted amongcommunities in the project areas. The main components

implement Iandscape restoration management plans

and develop risk and vulnerability assessments for the

Gishwati forest area. The project will also support

infrastructure measures and the restoration of wetlands

and river basins along with improved Water

management practices. There is also provision for the

support of alternative ene rgy sources and the adoption

of sustainable and alternative agricultural practices and

Iivelihoods including Climate resilient agricultural and

livestock practices in the target areas.

This GEF project (funded under LDCF) will have 3components: (r) local and national institutional capacity

development for an ecosystem management approach

to adaptation; (z) strengthening the policy and strategy

environment to promote the up-scaling of an ecosystem

management approach to adaptation in Rwanda; and (:)Interventions that reduce vulnerability and restore

Environmentlnitiative (PEl)

Led by the Rwanda Environment Management Authority(REMA) and the Ministry of Lands, Environment, Forests,

Water and Mines (MINITERE) and funded by UNDP, theintended outcome of the PEI is the integration ofenvironment into national policy and district planning,policy and budget processes to implement the EconomicDevelopment and Poverty Reduction Strategy (EDPRS

I t).

The expected outcome for PEI Phase ll is thatenvironment is integrated at nationaland districtplanning, policy and budget processes to implement theEDPRS with the expected Output that six selected lineministries (selected on the basis of expenditure) and

districts have fully mainstreamed environment in theirsector policies, plans and strategies and capacity has

been built for sustainable sector performance. Theproject works at the central, district and communitylevels and has been instrumental in mainstreamingclimate change issues into the development agenda at all

leve ls.

Lake VictoriaEnvironmentalManagementProject (LVEMP)

LVEM P Il is a five year East African Community projectunder implementation in the five countries that share theLake Victoria Basin: Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania

and Uganda. lt is funded through a USS r5 million IDAloan from the World bank. There are four components:

1. Strengthening institutional capacity for managingshared water and fisheries resources;

2. Point source pollution control and prevention;

3. Watershed management with two sub-components:(i) Natural resource conservation and livelihoodsimprovement; and (ii) Community capacity buildinga nd pa rticipation; and

4. Project coordination and management.

Development (CDD) sub-project rnitiative. This approach

enables local communities to access project funds forsusta i na ble enterprise development.

This, the second five year phase of the Project funded

through UNDP was designed to build on and scale up the

successes of the first phase (2oo5-B). The overall

objective of DEM P !l is to rntegrate environment withdevelopment and promote sustainable Iivelihoods using

decentralisation as a delivery mechanism. The project

has 3 components:

1) Enabling MINITERE to effectively implementenvironmental policies, and support the decentralisation

and coordination of quality delivery of environmental

services in the districts;

z) Strengthening district Capacity for environmental

management - to enable districts to integrate

environmental issues into the development process,

through the District Development Plans (DDPs) and thebudget proce ss;

3) Assisting in the implementation of environmentalpriorities identified in the DDPs by ,sing innovativepractices (e.9. improved cooking stoves, soil

conseruation technologies etc.), and building public-

private-civil society sectors in integrating conservation

and development, targeting communities in/ around

protected areas where degradation threatens livelihoods

sustainability.
