It will assess the project’s relevance, coherence, effectiveness, efficiency, sustainability, and scalability with a focus on the interventions in the wine, tea, and eco-tourism sectors, as well as institutional mechanisms such as common marketing organizations, business associations, and inter-municipal cooperation platforms. The findings will serve both accountability purposes (for SDC and stakeholders) and learning purposes (for the project team and partners), generating evidence-based recommendations to inform decision-making and the design of a potential Phase 2.
