wetland boundary from Kopege-Odwarat village and Angod village
in Odwarat Sub County.
ii) 19,630 Ha in terms of km 1,963 of the degraded wetland were demarcated, restored
through blockage of drainage channels and removal of constructed bunds.
Note ;The targeted area of degraded wetland for restoration was 700Ha
iii) 199 affected farmers were profiled and their names to be submitted to MAAIF for
provision of alternative livelihoods under component 2 of the project.
iv) Enterprises engaged by the affected community members were identified as rice
cultivation, potatoes Millet ,Ground nuts ,grazing of cattle, fishing, papyrus
harvesting in areas of kopege growing of maize, tomatoes among others.
v) The technical team was able to meet the wetland users and compiled valuable
information concerning the targeted wetland.
vi) The targeted wetland users were provided information that guided all the
presentations during stake awareness meeting.
B) Delays and challenges according to the planned sub-activities. (Include a
description of key milestones of the funded activity achieved during this reporting
period including any deviations from original expectations. Also describe challenges
encountered and actions undertaken to resolve these challenges)

i) The wetland area to be restored had immature crops planted and


destruction of these crops would have caused riots in the community.
ii) Funds were inadequate thus the target of restoring 700 Ha could not be
achieved.
iii) The wetland terrain was very difficult for transportation of the pillars and
this made the exercise very expensive.
iv) There was a fear among the local leaders that affected farmers would not
be provided with alternative livelihoods this negatively affected their
moral during the exercise.
(i) Funds were inadequate to procure personal protective gears such as gumboots
for all the participants especially the leaders, this made the movement of the
team difficult during the exercise.
(ii) Risks encountered, there were high chances of bush or wild snakes during the
rapid assessment and demarcation exercise.
(iii) Risks of community members and few local leaders with threatening
languages that interferes with the exercise in areas of wetland they fell belongs
to them the community members.
ix) Risk of high sunshine throughout the exercise causing headeque to the
technical team.
Actions undertaken to resolve the challenges;
i) The farmers were allowed to harvest their planted crops but not to replant
within the demarcated area after this season.
ii) Only 1,963 Kilometres of the wetland area were restored instead of the
targeted 700 Ha.
iii) The team managed to work through the difficult terrain.

2|Page
iv) Farmers were assured by the RDC that those affected would be given
alternative livelihoods by MAAIF under component 2 of the project. And
should live activities that degrades wetland.
v) RDC assured farmers that the restoration activities was good because it is a
presidential directive.

period, please provide a description of those risks and how they have impacted their
implementation and final targets. Please provide information on key results and

with the why and how results were achieved).

i) There is need to provide the affected farmers with alternative livelihood


immediately after the demarcation and restoration exercise is conducted to prevent
re-encroachment of the restored areas.
ii) Follow up monitoring and enforcement should be continuous to sustain the actions
taken.
iii) The wetland restoration activities should always be aligned after harvest season to
avoid destruction of the crops during restoration which attracts sympathy and
rioting.
iv) Profiling of the affected farmers should be conducted on the day of demarcation
and restoration this help get the actual affected persons on ground.

3. PERFORMANCE AGAINST THE FOLLOWING THE GCF INVESTMENT


CRITERIA

Provide a narrative report describing the progress on the funded activity’s performance
against the following.

3.1 Impact Potential (potential to achieve impact)

i) Demarcation of the wetland boundary helps to show where cultivation


and other developments should end; this will help the wetland vegetation
to naturally regenerate.
ii) The removal of the construct bunds and drainage channels will help to
restore the wetland hydrology.
iii) The recovery of the wetland hydrology and vegetation will also enhance
the biodiversity i
iv) Areas of degraded wetlands were sketched up during the field exercise
and final reports ,maps produced.
3.2 Paradigm Shift Potential

a) Potential for scaling up and replication


i) Prior to the actual restoration of the wetland, a rapid assessment of the wetland
area to be restored was undertaken and a map developed. The map made it easy
for the stakeholders to appreciate the need to restore the degraded wetland.

3|Page
ii) The stakeholder engagements from the district level, Sub County down to the
village level enhanced participation, support and ownership of the wetland
restoration activities.

iii) The locals in every village provided labor during the demarcation and did not
accept persons from outside their village to engage in carrying and planting of the
demarcation pillars.
iv) This practice was good because the locals obtained an income through provision
of the labor but it also enhanced ownership of restoration in each village.

These practices should be replicated and scaled up in other wetland restoration programs.

b) Potential for knowledge sharing and learning

The reports generated during stakeholder engagements and the actual restoration shall be
used to improve on the understanding amongst different stakeholders on wetland demarcation
and restoration in the district.

c) Contribution to the creation of an enabling environment

The different stakeholder engagements conducted helped to increase awareness of


stakeholders on issues of climate change adaptation and mitigation through wetland
restoration. This awareness created an enabling environment for wetland restoration in the
district.

The demarcation of the wetland boundary will enhance rejuvenation of the wetland
vegetation and hydrology.

d) Contribution to the regulatory framework and policies

The demarcation and restoration exercise improved awareness among the stakeholders of the
buffer distances for lakes, rivers and wetlands as specified in The Nationals Wetlands,
Riverbanks and Lakeshores regulations, 2000 (200M for lakeshores, 100M for riverbanks and
30M for wetlands).
These practices should be replicated and scaled up in other wetland restoration programs.

e) Contribution to climate-resilient development pathways consistent with relevant


national climate change adaptation strategies and plans.
Restored Kopege and Angod wetland system will enhance mitigation and adaptation to
climate change and improve the resilience of the community to climate change impacts.
3.3 District/ Community ownership
The land owners bordering the wetland systems of Kopege and Angod throughout the
demarcated sections were involved in the exercise to ensure ownership. In each village, the
labor was provided by the residents of that particular village so as to enhance.

4|Page
3.4 Efficiency and Effectiveness
Efficiency and Effectiveness (Give information on the delivery of activities, gaps, what
needs to be improved for better delivery, etc)

The preliminary activities conducted prior to the actual restoration were;


i) Rapid assessment of the wetland
ii) Stakeholder engagements from the district to the village level
This approach was effective in promoting stakeholder support and participation however,
more funds should be provided and other incentives to support the demarcation and
restoration exercise
