This report presents results and conclusions from a Pilot exercise undertaken to assess the experience of
affected country Parties to the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) with
reporting on impact indicators under the Convention’s Performance Review and Assessment of the
Implementation System (PRAIS). The experiences and recommendations presented in this report should
be used to guide the 2012–2013 reporting and review process.

The UNEP World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC) was commissioned to provide
technical support and backstopping for this Pilot, under the leadership of the UNCCD Secretariat and
with guidance from the UNCCD’s CST Bureau.

The Pilot took place between July and October 2011, with participation from the following countries:
Algeria, Argentina, Armenia, China, Colombia, Mexico, Portugal, Senegal, Spain, South Africa and Tunisia.
It involved a series of multi-national and national activities which aimed to produce evidence, examples
and recommendations on national reporting against the impact indicators.

The Pilot aimed to review the UNCCD’s impact indicators which have been developed in line with the
Convention’s 10-year Strategic Plan and its newly adopted results-based management approach which is
now used to monitor and assess implementation of the Convention in addressing sustainable land and
ecosystem management, poverty reduction and delivering global environmental benefits.
