Users should identify the needed qualifications given the objectives, scope and type of the technical review. For example, a technical review of GHG impacts with the objective of demonstrating results to a donor is likely to require different qualifications from a review of sustainable | development impacts for a domestic audience. Box 6.1 provides an example of how the technical reviewer was selected to conduct the technical review of an impact assessment of a nationally appropriate mitigation action (NAMA) .\u003Cbr>6.2 Identify and prepare the necessary documents and supporting evidence\u003Cbr>To prepare for a technical review, a complete assessment report is needed. Each ICAT assessment guide has a chapter on reporting that specifies the information that should be included in an assessment report. The assessment report and supporting evidence should be prepared and provided to potential technical reviewers as part of the selection and planning process. The quality of the assessment report and supporting evidence provided to the technical reviewer can either facilitate (if the quality is high) or hinder (if the quality is low) their understanding of the policy to be evaluated.\u003Cbr>It is helpful for the user to prepare a “terms of reference” document for the potential technical reviewer so that they have these in writing.

The NAMA includes state-led policies and actions for the regeneration of forests, and the implementation of planned grazing in 12 states. An ex-post assessment of impacts was conducted for the mitigation actions already implemented, and an ex-ante impact assessment was conducted for the scale-up and replication of the mitigation actions. Impact assessment reports were prepared following the key recommendations of the ICAT Forest Methodology, Agriculture Methodology, Non-State and Subnational Action Assessment Guide and Transformational Change Methodology.\u003Cbr>Some of the mitigation actions included in the NAMA were implemented as part of a Grupo Ecológico project with financing from the Multilateral Investment Fund of the InterAmerican Development Bank. Therefore, Grupo Ecológico decided to pursue technical review of the impact assessment reports in conjunction with the final evaluation of the project.
