The document outlines a priority-setting process for CRP2 funding in a specific region. It involves regional experts scoring 10 subthemes of CRP2 based on their contribution to 4 objectives: increasing food security/nutrition/health; reducing rural poverty; improving sustainability of natural resources; and enhancing opportunities/participation of women. Scores are weighted and combined to determine priority levels for each subtheme to guide CRP2 implementation and funding in the region. The goal is to reflect the most important priorities for that region. The principles are participation, transparency, standardized measurement, and simplicity.
