Support Evaluation and Learning for the NAMA Facility
The NAMA Facility was jointly established in 2013 by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU) and the UK Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) to provide support to developing countries and countries with emerging economies that show leadership in tackling climate change and that want to implement transformational country led Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs).
The vision of the NAMA Facility is to support developing and emerging economies to increase the transformational impact of their Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs) to ultimately accelerate the global transition to a low-carbon society in line with the 1.5/2 °C international climate goal. The Facility directly pursues this vision by providing technical and financial assistance to NAMA Support Projects (NSPs) related to specific mitigation actions with highly transformative potential supporting overarching NAMAs.
The learning and evaluation exercises shall hence be conducted in an integrative approach, allowing those implementing and steering the change processes to participate in the learning process from the design of the individual approach to the final learning products. The learning process shall enable implementers to adjust and improve their approach based on specific recommendations and the joint learning process.

Project Activities
The main objective is to generate knowledge and enable learning for implementers and local policy makers, the NAMA Facility and interested stakeholders:
Promote learning for it to be regularly generated, analysed, disseminated and mainstreamed into the design and delivery cycles of the NSPs and the NAMA Facility.
Promote accountability of the NSPs and the NAMA Facility results, particularly in terms of GHG reductions at the project, sector, and Facility levels, transformational change, and scaling-up of public and private climate finance
Specific objectives are:
Development of the theoretical framework (FW) guiding the mid-term and end-of-project evaluation and learning exercises (ELEs) of the NSPs.
Design and implementation of 17 mid-term and end-of-project, 20 evaluation and learning exercises of NSPs, based on the FW and NSP-specific factors.
Produce three intermediate and one final synthesis reports structured as comparative meta-analysis of the key findings and lessons from the NSP evaluation and learning exercises.
