Project outcomes and beneficiaries Outcomes The importance of NLP funding for funded projects The majority of all stakeholders who received direct funding (NRM regional organisations, NRM local groups who received funding or direct NLP grant recipients) indicated that none of the NLP funded projects would have gone ahead if they had not received NLP funding. The proportion was higher among direct NLP grant recipients (60%) compared to NRM regional organisations stakeholders (54%) and NRM local groups who received funding (50%) (Figure 9). Figure 9.

Question 14 ‘How many of the National Landcare Programme funded projects would have gone ahead if they had not received National Landcare Programme funding?’, n=433 Direct impacts All NRM stakeholders were asked about the broad impacts of the NLP (Table 26). While the majority of stakeholders agreed with all types of potential impacts listed, the most frequently identified across all stakeholder groups were: Improved landscape management (86% agree or tend to agree) Increased adoption of sustainable management practices (86%) Enhanced social and institutional capacity for sustainable management practices (82%).
