1.4 Reference(s) to Questionnaire(s) on SLM Technologies

2.1 Short description of the Approach

It is a local level participatory planning approach.

2.2 Detailed description of the Approach

Detailed description of the Approach:

Aims / objectives: This approach is to strengthen and hinance the community participation on SWC based development to bring sustainable development, To improve soil fertility and water infilteration, as the result to improve productivity, By group approach and volentier farmers, 1. Socio economic survey , 2. Teaching the target group and community, 3. Designing the plan, 4. Designing or prepaing action plan, 5. Implimentation of the planned activities, Back round information role, planning role, implimentation role, management role.

2.5 Country/ region/ locations where the Approach has been applied

2.7 Type of Approach

• project/ programme based

2.8 Main aims/ objectives of the Approach

The Approach focused on SLM only

2.9 Conditions enabling or hindering implementation of the Technology/ Technologies applied under the Approach

3.1 Stakeholders involved in the Approach and their roles

3.2 Involvement of local land users/ local communities in the different phases of the Approach

	Involvement of local land users/ local communities	Specify who was involved and describe activities
initiation/ motivation	interactive	public meetings, workshops/seminars; Produce new idea some problem by disccsion.
planning	interactive
implementation	passive
monitoring/ evaluation	passive	interviews/questionnaires, reporting, measurements/observations;
Research	none

3.4 Decision-making on the selection of SLM Technology/ Technologies

Specify who decided on the selection of the Technology/ Technologies to be implemented:

• mainly land users, supported by SLM specialists

Explain:

First wereda expert were inform for community on the import one of natural resource conservation then the community organized in auorteanteary base and difinite area with the specialist.

Decisions on the method of implementing the SLM Technology were made by mainly by SLM specialists with consultation of land users. Expert delimat the area and recommeded pasebel measures and follow the implementation.

4.1 Capacity building/ training

Was training provided to land users/ other stakeholders?

Yes

Specify who was trained:

• land users

• 1-extensionists/trainers. 2-school children/students

Subjects covered:

About SWC objective the reason to b conserved and it about its benefit.

4.2 Advisory service

Do land users have access to an advisory service?

Yes

Describe/ comments:

Key elements: Motivation, Production; 1) Mainly: government's existing extension system, Partly: projects own extension structure and agent

Advisory service is quite adequate to ensure the continuation of land conservation activities

4.3 Institution strengthening (organizational development)

Have institutions been established or strengthened through the Approach?

• yes, moderately

Specify the level(s) at which institutions have been strengthened or established:

• local

Specify type of support:

• capacity building/ training
• equipment

4.4 Monitoring and evaluation

Is monitoring and evaluation part of the Approach?

Yes

Comments:

technical aspects were regular monitored through measurements

socio-cultural aspects were regular monitored through observations

economic / production aspects were ad hoc monitored through measurements

area treated aspects were None monitored through observations

no. of land users involved aspects were monitored

management of Approach aspects were monitored

There were few changes in the Approach as a result of monitoring and evaluation

5.1 Annual budget for the SLM component of the Approach

If precise annual budget is not known, indicate range:

• < 2,000

Comments (e.g. main sources of funding/ major donors):

Approach costs were met by the following donors: government (national): 25.0%; national non-government (-): 50.0%; local community / land user(s) (-): 25.0%

5.2 Financial/ material support provided to land users

Did land users receive financial/ material support for implementing the Technology/ Technologies?

Yes

5.3 Subsidies for specific inputs (including labour)

• equipment

• agricultural

If labour by land users was a substantial input, was it:

• food-for-work

Comments:

Within voluntary labout input seedling planting & repitting, Within food for work sonstruction of terriace.

6.1 Impacts of the Approach

6.3 Sustainability of Approach activities

Can the land users sustain what has been implemented through the Approach (without external support)?

• yes

6.4 Strengths/ advantages of the Approach

Strengths/ advantages/ opportunities in the land user’s view
About its increasing of grass production (How to sustain/ enhance this strength: Through protection from any interfirance)
Satisfuction of their fuel wood demand (How to sustain/ enhance this strength: Through protection from any interfirance)

Strengths/ advantages/ opportunities in the compiler’s or other key resource person’s view
Reducing run-off and inc infiltration (How to sustain/ enhance this strength: contineous mentenance of physical and biological structure.)
Moisture harvesting (How to sustain/ enhance this strength: contineous mentenance of physical and biological structure.)
Increasing income generation (How to sustain/ enhance this strength: Contineous protection from animal interfirance with proper utilzation by cut and carry system.)
It is solving shortage of fuel and construction wood (How to sustain/ enhance this strength: Throught contineous replantation and protection from misusing interfirance)
