“…Rather than conducting data analysis, these four papers summarised the characteristics of included programmes and/or the analysis results conducted in other related studies (FAO, 2009; Meizen‐Dick et al, 2003; Sheriff et al, 2010; WorldFish, 2009). Finally, the fourth category consists of papers that utilised qualitative or mixed‐methods research techniques to explore the views of programme stakeholders (Hallman et al, 2003; Hima et al, 2016; Kessler et al, 2017; Mandal et al, 2014; Moumin, 2016; Naved, 2000; Omobowale & Akinola, 2017; UNIDO, 2019). Because these eight papers tried to achieve qualitative goals (i.e., understand the first‐hand experience of participants), they were critically appraised to provide a sense of their trustworthiness in terms of how the studies were contextualised, conducted, analysed, and presented.…”

“…As the Fadama III programme was a successor to Fadama II, the Nigerian government aimed to expand the programme across the whole country, rather than in select regions. This expansion of resources was not adequately covered by the programme budget, leading to low funding in certain areas, with Fadama II beneficiaries feeling particularly affected (Hima et al, 2016).…”

Background: A steady increase in the international production and consumption of fish has positioned aquaculture as a development option. Previous literature has highlighted the potential of aquaculture to improve economic, nutritional and gender equality outcomes, however, the evidence on the effectiveness of these programmes remains unclear.Objectives: The review assessed whether aquaculture interventions increase the productivity, income, nutrition, and women's empowerment of individuals. We additionally aimed to identify barriers and facilitators that could affect the effectiveness of these interventions, and the cost-effectiveness of such programmes. Methods:We searched for experimental and quasi-experimental studies focused on low-and middle-income countries. We used standard methodological procedures expected by The Campbell Collaboration for the data collection and analysis.Results: We identified 21 impact evaluations assessing the effect of 13 aquaculture interventions in low-and lower-middle income countries. Twelve of these studies have a high risk of bias. Aquaculture interventions lead to a small increase in the production value, income, total expenditures and food consumption of participants.The limited availability of evidence prevented us from assessing other nutritional and women's empowerment outcomes. We identified barriers and facilitators affecting the programmes' set up, the participation of beneficiaries, and the level of productive activities. Insufficient cost data hindered full comparisons across programmes. Conclusions:The review suggests a lack of rigorous evidence assessing the effectiveness of aquaculture programmes. Future research could focus on evaluating nutrition and women's empowerment impacts, promoting reporting standards, and the use of cost data to continue building quality evidence around aquaculture interventions.

Adaptive project management for the civil society sector: towards an academic research agenda

International Development Planning Review

In order to react adequately to the complex, fast-changing and politicised environments in which development projects operate, donors have started adopting more adaptive project management approaches. Projects dealing with civil society actors in particular are said to benefit from adaptive management. As adaptive management largely depends on locally led and politically smart programming, it is presented as one avenue for addressing long-standing problems of civil society organisations, such as donor dependency, lack of legitimacy and accountability issues. However, the evidence base concerning the effects of adaptive management is scarce and rather anecdotal and an overarching definition of adaptive management has not been established. In order to work towards an academic research agenda for adaptive management, the article systematically reviews twenty-one case studies to generate insights into what donors and implementers consider as adaptive practices, their perceived effects, obstacles and derived recommendations. The article thus contributes to identifying which actors are driving the adaptive agenda, which practices are considered as adaptive, what we can learn from first pilot interventions and which research gaps can be derived from this analysis.
