The objective of the evaluation is to examine the progress of R4 toward the main goals of increased food and income security from 2012 to 2016. The study builds on findings of the first phase of evaluation, which examined the impacts of HARITA between 2009 and 2012. The evaluation serves three purposes: -  Learning how the program is working, who is benefiting, who is not, why, and what can be improved, with the audience being the main stakeholders: OA, WFP, the International Research Institute for Climate and Society, and REST.   - Presenting evidence of program impacts to funders.     - Sharing the knowledge created by R4 about managing risks in smallholder agriculture with development practitioners and the academic community to foster the broad use of that knowledge.
