The one-paragraph answer: years, implementer, funder and purpose, each from document metadata.
In 1981, the program's planned activities were carried out in each country except El Salvador, through contracted residents and national counterparts assisted by the central office staff.1 The main activities the program carried out included the socioeconomic diagnosis and the evaluation of forest plantations.1

Operated in: Central America, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Honduras, Nicaragua, Brazil, Panama, Caribbean, Latin America.
Districts, regions and facilities the program's own documents name, with what the document says it did there. Source: sentences in the program's documents
Districts, regions and facilities named in the program's own documents, not verified sites. Place dots exist for Malawi and Guatemala only so far.
Sample Built from district names in Malawi documents while the full place data loads; it is not yet the finished place list.
Solid: the documents describe the program's work there. Faint: named in the program's documents. Bigger means more mentions. Shown: district, region or province; squares are facilities.
Countries where this program operated, set by the countries its documents name most often. Countries only tagged on documents are listed apart. Source: document tags, scope rule
Scope: regional. How the scope was set is not described yet. High confidence.
How sure we are: 0.9.
When the program ran, from its start year to the latest document year. A hatched bar means the start is our estimate. Source: award and document years
Axis: years in documents. The start year comes from design document year; the end is the latest document year, so the program may have run longer.
Who started the program, and which administration it began under. Timing only; it does not say who started it. Source: initiative records, start year

DEC topic and subject tags. They describe the documents, not what the program was. Each tag opens its evidence in the drawer.
Programs worth reading next, by topic, implementer, country and years. Similar by facets (topic, implementer, country, years) and, when available, description. It says the programs look alike, not how they are related in time. Source: catalog facets
