Targeting planning dec2012
Creating a Strategy and log frame for Targeting and Environment for CRP 3.7 A two-day facilitated discussion 4th/5th December 2012 Info Centre, off main courtyard, ILRI Background The Spatial systems, household analysis, targeting environment component for the CGIAR Research Program (CRP) 3.7 on “More Meat, Milk and Fish for the Poor, by the Poor” has begun work in the four focus value chains in nine countries. There is a need to bring key stakeholders together and complete the draft log frame and to develop an action plan for this component, including how it will integrate with the overall CRP 3.7 and other research programs. The objective of this component is to generate the spatial, systems and farm household level related data, knowledge and tools required to guide the effective targeting, implementation and scaling out of the program and support the value chain team in the use of those tools. In addition to the original proposal it is also mandated to ensure that all work on the CRP 3.7 value chains is done in an environmentally sustainable manner.
This participative meeting in Nairobi is designed to look at all these existing activities so far and jointly develop a log frame and action plan.
The desired outcomes of the workshop will be:
- A shared vision of what is involved in the targeting and environment
- An agreement on which environmental dimensions we are looking at
- An understanding of how this component links with other components
- A revised log frame that supports a coherent research agenda
- A draft work plan for 2013
- Resource mobilisation with shared ideas and plan.
- An action plan with personal responsibilities, timing, resource needs and allocation.

Session Note
Feedback on Logframe Outcome1: Program staff partners and decision makers select the most promising value chains and sites to focus their efforts and investments for significant impact and wider scaling out Outcome2: Spatial systems and household level data, tools and knowledge used to guide the effective targeting implementation and scaling-out of pro-poor and sustainable animal source food value chains development action by decision makers (CRP staff, policy makers, VC actors, NGOs, donors)
Issues around the proper name for the component were raisd, agreed to leave the name as 'Targeting and Environment' and to embed the environment aspect in the out puts
Key Questions / thoughts How does this component fit with the other components Is the environment aspect being captured enough in this component Indicators - where should they be generated from Rename to: Targeting Sustainable Interventions
