for example while the output of a capacity building exercise on the impact of climate change on agricultural productivity can be identified relatively easily eg x number of people trained identifying the outcome of this activity eg droughtresistant crops planted on y hectares of land is more difficult to identify the impacts of such an activity eg improved food security will be even more difficult to attribute given time lags natural variability in weather patterns shifting baselines due to the effects of climate change and interactions with outcomesimpacts from other related interventions while assessing the effectiveness of an intervention in producing projectlevel outputs is relatively straightforward attributing longterm global impacts to an intervention is extremely challenging lamhauge per s comm
