Baseline Assessment for the Gold Project under the Pathways to Prosperity Program Baseline Assessment for the Coffee Project under the Pathways to Prosperity Program

Stakeholder Analysis:
Stakeholder analysis ensures that project interventions consider all stakeholders in the project’s target areas and increases the chance that projects will ‘do no harm’ and hopefully create positive change for excluded stakeholders. In general – the more stakeholders involved in the project’s design/implementation, the more successful and sustainable the project results will be.
The stakeholder analysis should aim to accomplish the following:

Map the key stakeholders and their interests (supportive or unsupportive) in the project
Note the relationships and power dynamics between different key stakeholders
Assess the relevance of the project to each stakeholder as well as their influence on the project
Identify if/how to engage stakeholders

The stakeholder analysis matrix (to be given to the consultant) can be used to synthesize the information gathered for the analysis. Based on the stakeholder mapping, the project team should decide which stakeholders the project interventions should prioritize and how they should be engaged to strengthen inclusive impact.
Gender Analysis:

With reference to Solidaridad Gender Inclusivity Buckets Book (to be provided) a gender analysis shall be conducted following the Step 1 on stakeholder analysis. The consultant will utilize gender analysis tools to identify the gender issues, and social inclusion/exclusion issues in relation to P2P pathways. And suggest strategies to address them using a gender transformative approach. A simplified gender analysis matrix has been developed to inform project design and ideally with the participation of key local stakeholders/partners. The matrix provides guidance and step-by-step instructions on how to complete the matrix as well as the analysis of the information captured.

Problem Analysis:

After having mapped the project’s key stakeholders and their relationships/influence, as well as analyzing the specific Gender considerations in the project’s context through a gender analysis, the program team should be ready to identify the overarching main problems the project wants to address.
The main problem we are trying to address through this Gol project is sustainable production (minimum use or zero use of mercury, formalization and legalization, traceable ASM chain) as well as sustainable markets.

Indicator Framework:

This will involve selection of key indicators for project monitoring aligned with generic programme indicators provided in the project document. Initial basis of these indicators will involve the collection of information which allows the project team to track progress on targets and systems change over the duration of the project.
