MINISTRY OF GREEN ECONOMY AND ENVIRONMENT TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPES FOR RESILIENCE AND DEVELOPMENT (TRALARD) II PROJECT TERMS OF REFERENCE (TOR) TO HARMONISE THE TRALARD COMMUNITY FACILITATION MANUAL AND THE GLOBAL CENTER FOR ADAPTATION SUB PROJECT MANUAL 1.0 Background The Government of the Republic Zambia (GRZ) through the Ministry of Green Economy and Environment (MGEE) has designed the Transforming Landscapes for Resilience and Development in Zambia II Project (TRALARD II or “the Project”). The Project is supported by the World Bank, Climate Investment Funds, Nordic Development Fund, Least Developed Countries Fund, Global Environment Facility and Scaling Climate Action by Lowering Emissions at a total investment of USD137m. The Project builds on the successful achievements and lessons of the Transforming Landscapes for Resilience and Development in Zambia Project (TRALARD) that began in 2019 and closed in December 2025. The TRALARD II Project will be implemented over a 5-year period (from January 2026 to December 2030), and will cover five provinces: Copperbelt, Luapula, Muchinga, Northern and Southern. The Project is being implemented in selected landscapes in 32 districts of the five target provinces. The Project is designed to combat landscape degradation, build community resilience to climate change shocks such as droughts and floods, and advance Zambia’s 2030 goal of becoming a low-carbon, resource-efficient, and socially inclusive economy. The TRALARD II Project design is based on the Sustainable Land Management (SLM) approach which aims to adopt land use systems that, through appropriate management practices, enable land users to maximize the economic and social benefits from the land while maintaining or enhancing the ecological support functions of the land resources. The project field activities, especially under Component 2, will be implemented in landscapes that will be identified and adopted within the first semester of implementation. Implementation
