Targeting poor farmers: contributions to rural development in Thailand (pdf 708K)

An evaluation of three AusAID projects addressing rural development in Thailand to assess their effectiveness and impact on village family (men and women) and community life, the environment and on the future work of the implementing agencies.

The aim of the evaluation was to assess the effectiveness of three rural development projects in achieving design objectives.

The three projects evaluated were:
- HASD II, Thai-Australia Agricultural and Social Development Project, implemented by the Hill Tribe Welfare Division, Department of Public Welfare, Ministry of Labour and Social Welfare, 1988-1993

- TAAEP, Thai-Australia Agricultural Extension Project, implemented by the Department of Agricultural Extension, Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives, 1991-1995

- ULRAP, Ubon Ratchathani Land Reform Area Project, implemented by Agricultural Land Reform Office, Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives, 1991-1995.

Lessons drawn from project experience will be used by AusAID in designing future projects.
