Implementation Status and Key Decisions
Overall implementation is significantly delayed. The project achieved reasonable progress in the implementation of activities for sub-components
A1, A2, A3, A4 and B1. But all other components are significantly delayed. A protracted process to agree on the design of the optimized hydro-met
network and procurement-related delays on the strategic technical assistance to INAM as well as weak cooperation among the implementing agencies
are the main reasons for the slow implementation to date. Thus, there is a risk of unbalanced achievements by the end of the project between the
hydrological and meteorological components.
A major accomplishment is the Data-sharing Protocol between the hydrological and meteorological institutions. A data sharing protocol and
memorandum of understanding (MoU) between INAM and DNGRH is now effective. It will guide data collection, transmission, verification and storage
and inter-agency exchange. This is a major achievement under the project towards improving communication between the two institutions and access to
hydro-met data in general.
Implementation during the first half of the project life focused on improving the quality and quantity of hydrological and meteorological data. However, it
should be noted that the success of the project will be to a great extent a function of how the different stakeholders receive and use the weather and
climate information.
The Bank team recommended the following actions to further strengthen the alignment of the project with main PPCR goals to foster resilient
development through climate-informed planning and investments:
• Knowledge exchange and shared learning: setting up of a mechanism to distill land disseminate lessons learned throughout the project duration,
Since PPCR is a pilot program and demonstrative in nature. It would also be helpful to ensure that future participation in international climate
services events are closely tied to one or more project activities and directly benefits the project.
• Service delivery: Stakeholder/user consultation is key to ensure effective information service delivery and uptake of the information by user
groups. Therefore it would be critical that hydrological and meteorological products that are envisaged under sub-components A.6 and B.7 are
designed and developed in close consultation with specific user groups/sectors from the outset.
• Gender sensitive interventions: The project seems to make assumptions on the benefits to women, based on the demography of the project
locations. More deliberate attempts needs to be made to reach and engage with different beneficiary groups during stakeholder consultations. The
training activities should also be gender targeted and tracked.
• Synergy/complementarity with the other PPCR projects in Mozambique: Under the Mozambique PPCR program, six investment projects and two
technical assistance projects are being implemented in addition to this PPCR hydro-met project. There are important synergies among these projects
in terms of locations, beneficiary groups as well as tools and technologies used. The Hydro-met project has the potential to inform and influence the
PPCR portfolio in Mozambique through the provision of climate information. More emphasis needs to be placed on sharing hydro-met data and
related climate information across the PPCR portfolio.
