Global Learning for Adaptive Management
Institute of Development Studies
DFID and USAID have formed a partnership to understand and implement adaptive management approaches to delivering aid. The GLAM programme will establish a technical assistance mechanism that delivers monitoring, evaluation and learning (MEL) support to adaptive development programmes in DFID and USAID. It will also establish a centre for learning about adaptive management. Programme objective: The objective of the GLAM programme is to improve the value for money and impact of development interventions as a consequence of using better monitoring and evaluation evidence for adaptive management decisions. In addition, the programme will support the use of innovative methods, approaches and digital technologies to monitor, evaluate and learn from adaptive programmes. It will also build a set of standards and an evidence base to understand links between the use of effective monitoring and evaluation strategies which allow adaptive management, and the delivery of more effective, efficient, relevant and sustainable development interventions.

Supporting the Implementation of the ASEAN-RAI
The International Institute for Sustainable Development
As guiding, voluntary principles, the ASEAN-RAI must be operationalized by actors throughout the public, private and civil society sectors in order to have an on-the-ground impact in improving sustainable development outcomes for agricultural investments. Therefore, SMEs and domestic agribusinesses must be incentivized to adopt the ASEAN-RAI via relevant channels: national regulations and financial mechanisms. For government officials, this means ensuring their national framework of laws, regulations, and contracts embeds the principles of the ASEAN-RAI.

Strengthening Forest Legality through Transparency and Accountability
World Resources Institute
The Strengthening Forest Legality through Transparency and Accountability Project builds on previous rounds of FGMC support. The first round supported WRI to launch Global Forest Watch (GFW), an online platform monitoring forests everywhere in near-real time. In the second round, WRI worked to demonstrate how transparency combined with customized information technology solutions could strengthen timber legality enforcement and private sector compliance, and drive greater accountability for tropical forest management. In the third FGMC round, WRI will deepen gains in forest and timber trade transparency while securing emerging processes and practices to hold governments and the private sector accountable for forest management and land use decisions. GFW remains central, and the Project will maintain and expand the global functions and reach of GFW. We will also expand ongoing engagement with actors and political processes globally and in key VPA and processing countries (Cameroon, Republic of Congo, China) to scale use of targeted information technology solutions. These include: Forest Watcher – a mobile app that brings near-real time deforestation alerts offline and into the field to assist law enforcement and civil society to identify and interdict forest crime. Forest Atlases – nationalized versions of the GFW platform owned and operated by forest ministries to enhance forest land use transparency and related policy enforcement. Open Timber Portal (OTP) – a web-based platform promoting trade in legal forest products by compiling information about forest sector compliance from government, companies and third-party forest monitors in producer countries. Uptake of these tools will support governments and private sector to implement their commitments to eliminate deforestation and illegal logging, and enable civil society to hold these actors accountable for their commitments.

Low Carbon Development Initiative for Indonesia
World Resources Institute
The Low Carbon Development in Indonesia is a program to implement new climate economy and new food and land use economy in Indonesia. It will undertake systematic economy-wide assessment and provide independent and authoritative evidence on the relationship between actions that strengthen economic performance and those that reduce the risk of climate change. In addition to examining economic sectors such as in forestry, agriculture, and peat, attention will be given to the overall performance of food and land-uses systems. The program intends to identify opportunities where policy reforms, investment and business solutions could yield large multiple benefits for the economy, society and the environment. It aims to contribute to building a low carbon development in Indonesia through new climate economy at a national level and sustainable food and land use economy in selected sub-national jurisdictions of East Kalimantan, South Sumatra, and Papua/West Papua. At a national level, it will develop an investment model to inform Indonesia’s Mid-term National Development Planning (RPJMN) strategic environmental assessment and to achieve Indonesia’s global commitment to emissions reduction. The investment model will be supported by background studies for several sectors, including forestry and agriculture, that document stakeholder’s knowledge in these sectors to inform the country’s development and investment options. Moreover, it will establish science-based targets and pathways at scale to include national and sub-national levels and agreed upon by multi-stakeholders in the public and private sectors; provide business solutions that raise ambition of the private sector; and present these in action roadmaps with innovations that can mobilize financing and investments. It will also identify key policies, investments and actions needed to establish a new food and land use economy, which enhances agricultural productivity and rural livelihoods, addresses food waste, improves diets while at the same time protecting forests and biodiversity and increasing Indonesia's resilience and adaptation to climate change. Combined these will aim at providing proof points for key sectors (such as in forestry and agriculture) in specified jurisdictions (such as in East Kalimantan) where opportunities and policy reforms are likely to yield the largest economic, social and environmental impacts and co-benefits.

TDDAP (Tackling Deadly Diseases in Africa) Programme
Institute of Development Studies
This is a five-year flagship programme for DFID’s Africa Regional Department. Following the Ebola crisis and various outbreaks since then, DFID is using learning from these and its regional preparedness programme to deliver on its commitments on global health security. DFID’s interventions during the Ebola crises and in other public health emergencies have contributed to a common understanding of the weaknesses in African health systems and the international health architecture. The programme proposed here aims to address a number of challenges that limit the effectiveness of responses to disease outbreaks. The TDDAP will focus on building the ability of our partner countries and institutions to prevent and respond to the health emergencies presented by exceptional outbreaks of diseases like Ebola, Zika and yellow fever.
