The One Billion Trees Fund (1BT Fund) was developed as one part of the wider One Billion Trees Programme aimed at increasing tree planting across New Zealand. This $176.8 million Fund has run for 3 years between August 2018 and June 2021. The focus of the 1BT Fund has been to encourage and enable activities that support tree planting. The Fund is comprised of two parts, namely, a tree planting Grants scheme and a Partnership Fund.
Te Uru Rākau plans to evaluate the 1BT Fund in accordance with Cabinet directives that enable the Government to publicly demonstrate progress towards the one billion trees goal, and to account for investment in the Fund.
The 1BT Fund is closely aligned to the Provincial Growth Fund (PGF), and therefore evaluation of either Fund should also be closely aligned. The PGF review was completed on 12 March 2021. The PGF’s Evaluation Plan will be closely considered and inform planning of the 1BT Fund evaluation to ensure a degree of congruency between the two.
The main objective of the evaluation is to assess and report on the 1BT Fund’s performance, impact, effectiveness, and value to date. Secondary objectives include consideration of strategic alignment, cost-effectiveness, outcomes and benefits achievement, stakeholder perceptions and Fund administration
