Following the launch of the National Agroecology Strategy in Kenya and its mandate to establish an M&E framework, the TRANSITIONS Metrics project convened a three-day in-person workshop (15–17 January 2025) on behalf of the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development (MoALD), through the Intersectoral Forum on Agroecology and Agrobiodiversity (ISFAA). This workshop initiated a co-design process for the NAS-FST M&E framework. TAPE+ National was presented and widely recognized as a highly suitable solution for many aspects envisioned to be incorporated in the NAS-FST M&E framework. TAPE+ National has a strong overlap in themes and indicators with those envisioned to be assessed through the NAS-FST M&E framework. Further, the NAS-FST M&E framework envisions to establish a comprehensive baseline, for which the TAPE+ survey offers an ideal methodology, offering a solid empirical foundation upon which to build the monitoring system. Component 5 of the EU-funded and IFAD-managed TRANSITIONS Metrics project will build on this momentum and continue supporting the co-development of the NAS-FST M&E framework and ensure the integration of TAPE+ National as an integral component of the NAS M&E framework.
Duties and responsibilities

This review will be used to ensure that TAPE+ National and the NAS-FST M&E framework align with existing frameworks at the national and county levels.
