Book excerpt: This report provides an overview of the impact evaluation findings of the FNS-REPRO project in Somaliland. [Author] The report draws on data collected from a panel and two rounds of surveys (baseline in 2020 and endline in 2023), collected from both intervention and non-intervention areas in Sool and Sanaag regions. [Author] This method of panel data collection provides the strongest evidence for attribution of a causal relationship between the implemented interventions and the effect on beneficiaries. [Author] Among others, the impact evaluation found that the Resilience Capacity Index among the beneficiary households increased from 28. [Author]1 in baseline to 35. [Author]9 in endline. [Author] The project reported a positive impact in building resilience, with the most notable change recorded in the adaptive capacity pillar. [Author] The FNS-REPRO project reflected a significant positive change in income. [Author] The overall annual income among the beneficiary households increased from USD 215 to USD 430. [Author] Uptake of fodder production due to the project’s intervention is observed – with a 22 percent increment in households involved in fodder production between baseline and endline surveys. [Author] Overall, at endline, multiple benefits are realized from the increased availability of fodder. [Author] Reduced distance covered in search of fodder and more milk for the family are the top benefits reported at 53. [Author]7 percent and 50 percent respectively, a 28. [Author]7 percent and 13. [Author]7 percent increase compared to baseline. [Author] Furthermore, 31. [Author]7 percent of the households reported that the increased availability of fodder has provided more income for the family. [Author]
