Abstract

Landmine Action (LMA) has two sites in Liberia for their agricultural reintegration program-the Sinoe Agricultural Training Program (SATP) in Panama, Sinoe County, which accommodates 200 trainees, and the Tumutu Agricultural Training Program (TATP) in Salala, Bong County, which accommodates 400 trainees. A baseline survey was conducted in the Sinoe region in August 2009 before implementation of the program in that location. A follow-up survey is planned for December 2010, approximately one year after the training sessions are complete. Another baseline survey was conducted in Gbarpolu, Nimba, Bong, and Margibi Counties in September and October 2009 for the TATP evaluation. As with the Sinoe baseline survey, the results summarize the average characteristics of the target population and verify balance of means between treatment and control groups. A follow-up survey is planned for March 2011, approximately a year after the completion of the program. The impact analysis will be conducted at the conclusion of the TATP follow-up survey, combining the results from the two sites.
