- : 16 : - The most effective FFW-assisted projects visited by the evaluation team were primarily of two types: * those in which the project holder was a private voluntary organization (PVO); and * those in which the project holder was a priest or nun with maay years of experience with FFW, and good technical and development skills. The PVO managed FFW projects were particularly impressive. All of these projects visited by team members not only had on-site technical and management staff, but most also had staff specialized in establishing village organizations and cooperatives. All of these projects had very strong community involvement in project planning and Implementation, and consequently, better maintenance of assets. Moreover, the PVO FFW-assisted projects had much more in the way of complementary inputs, such as tools, materials, and cash. Examples One project holder, a PVO founded in 1946 had 10 on-going FFW activities as components in its Tribal Development Project. The purpose of the project was to bring self-sufficiency to a tribal area encompassing 33 villages. The PVO staff assigned to the project area totalled 15 people, and included 2 agronomists, 2 water engineers, 1 community organization specialist, and a project director. The FFW activities included construction of 6 check dams for irrigation, land development of 40 acres for rice production, I irrigation canal and 2 drinking water wells. One of the 6 check dams nearing completion was 600 feet long, and was expected to hold water covering 25 acres. It will provide irrigation water to 150 acres belonging to farmers from 6 villages. Given that these 150 acres - which up to now have only provided I millet crop per year - will soon be providing 2 rice crops each year, it is not difficult to speculate on the significant impact that the FFW- constructed check dam will have oI tle lncoines of the beneficiaries. Three thousand ,nandays of FFW have been provided by CRS to construct this check dam, which translates into 12,000 kg of bular and 300 kg of soybean oil. Another project holder, a PVO founded 25 years ago, has been able to involve the community actively in project planning and implementation with the result that it has been possible for the PVO to utilize the FFW resource as a catalyst for
- : 17 attracting resources from other donors and the State Government; and has been able to integrate these resources very well into a long-term plan of community development. The project has self-employment schemes with assistance from IRDP and has successfully completed a village wide sanitary latrines programme with FFW produced bricks and labour, and design assistance obtained from the Block Development Office. The PVO has also constructed a Community Centre, part of which has been let out on rental basis to a Bank, in the process attracting institutional credit facilities to the village. The PVO has also assumed responsibility for the maintenance of assets created and actively liaises with Government for implementation of environmental programs like Social Forestry. Clearly much more could be accomplished with the FFW resource if all project holders had sufficient access to complementary inputs such as technical input, support in site management and community organizing, and material and cash resources. 2.5 Zonal Personnel Issues: Unrealistic Roles and Responsibilities of Field Reviewers The roles and responsibilities of CRS zonal field reviewers are currently unrealistic, not only because of the geographical coverage which is expected of them, but also because their scope of work is much too demanding in that it expects them to provide program audit functions, promotion functions, and linkage to project sites. Table 4 indicates the magnitude of Field Reviewer's task in maintaining linkages with consignees, project holders, distributors and project sitzS.
