PRIMEX is providing the services of an international Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) Expert to the ADB loan-funded Northern Regions Sustainable Livelihoods through Livestock Development Project (Loan No. 2259-LAO [SF]) in Lao PDR under a subcontract to the Lao Consulting Group (LCG), a leading Laotian consulting firm.

Mr. Preethi de Silva is tasked to supervise the design, conduct and carry out a comprehensive analysis of a baseline survey; design a Project Benefit, Monitoring and Evaluation (PBME) system for incorporation into the routine project review procedures to be carried out at provincial and national levels; design mechanisms and procedures for monitoring the use and repayment of loans from village revolving funds provided under the Project, and develop mechanisms for monitoring changes in the upland livestock production systems based on whole farm enterprise models, including impacts on household labor utilization, among others.

The Project aims to improve livestock growth through the introduction of forages from contracted nurseries supported by the Project; improve livestock survival through better management of livestock movements, improved disease monitoring, and support for emergency vaccinations; improve management practices through farmer training, and demonstrations of livestock management. Another component has been developed to enhance village capacities and participatory approaches in identifying public investments and managing village resources to ensure participation of the poor households and women in project benefits.

The 18 priority poor districts identified as beneficiaries of the project include those in the northern provinces of Luang Prabang, Xieng Khouang, Luang Namtha, Bokeo, and Huaphanh. (Arvin Yana /PRIMEX)
