As part of its ongoing commitment to transparency, accountability, and effective implementation of the European Union-funded Leh Go Green (LGG) Project, the Forestry Development Authority (FDA) has initiated a field monitoring exercise across multiple project sites.
The current mission aims to evaluate activities carried out by implementing partners under the LGG Project. FDA’s monitoring team is engaging directly with project beneficiaries to assess their involvement, benefits received, challenges faced, and overall perceptions of the project’s impact.
“This monitoring effort allows us to measure actual progress against the project timeline,” said Alvin Roberts, LGG focal point at the FDA.
“By visiting project sites and speaking to those directly affected, we gain clearer insights into achievements, areas needing adjustment, and how to better support stakeholders in meeting project goals.”
During the field visits, the monitoring team is assessing progress against established timetables and identifying successes, gaps, and areas where accelerated efforts may be needed to meet targets.
Beneficiaries in several counties have expressed appreciation for the project, noting improved environmental awareness, increased access to alternative livelihoods, greater inclusion of women and persons with disabilities, and enhanced community participation in forest management.
FDA remains dedicated to fostering inclusive, sustainable development through close collaboration with communities and implementing partners.
Insights gained during this monitoring mission will inform future technical support, necessary realignments, and enhance stakeholder reporting.
The monitoring exercise will continue over the coming days, culminating in a comprehensive report detailing project performance, community impact, and strategic recommendations.
Implemented with funding from the European Union and managed by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the Leh Go Green Project promotes forest conservation, biodiversity protection, climate change resilience, gender equality, and community empowerment across key forest landscapes in Liberia.
