F.a: Bhutan country programme Environmental challenges in Bhutan are relatively small due to the history of the country. Nevertheless due to rapid modernization of the Bhutanese society, the pressure to exploitation of natural resources is also increasing. For instance infrastructure a
nd hydropower development, poaching and illegal wildlife trade, human- wildlife conflicts, illegal logging, excessive gathering of forest commodities as well as forest fires threaten the valuable and untouched nature of Bhutan. In addition, climate change 
is already causing major changes in the environment which causes challenges for local people's livelihoods.The establishment of protected areas and national parks and training of forest guards and villagers to prevent poaching and illegal wildlife trade we
 improve the status of endangered species such as tigers and snow leopards. The promotion of research including camera trapping and GPS tracking increases information about the movement of the species and helps to improve their protection. The development 
of alternative forms of income such as ecotourism and viewing centers for women, improves the well-being of local people. Local villagers are also supported through development of compensation schemes, in case their cattle has been attacked by wildlife. Be
neficiaries: Villagers, cattle herders, women’s groups, ethnic minorities, forest guards, park staff.Implementor: WWF Bhutan http://www.wwfbhutan.org/, Cooperation partners: Department of Forest and Park Services (DoFPS), Wildlife Conservation Division, 
local villagers and farmers.
FLC/ NNFT Developing aquaponics for improving food security at Okukuna Farm at Goreangab community PYM/ NFFT/ Aquaponics -viljelymenetelmän kehittäminen yhteisön ruokaturvan parantamiseksi Namibia Future Farming Trust (NFFT) is an organization that aims at finding solutions to uplift the quality of life for people burdened by poverty malnutrition poor education and limited income opportunities. NFFT improves urban food production to urban fo
od production in order to curb malnutrition poverty and unemployment in Namibia. With the Okukuna Farm Project NNFT aims to establish a model of innovative urban farming technology for vulnerable communities. The project offers on-site support and training
 to employees community volunteers (specifically women and released offenders). NFFT also aims to increase awareness of the importance of intake of fresh produce to prevent malnutrition. The duration of the compact project is 12 months. Within that time fr
ame NFFT has planned to establish a community farm on a plot offered by the City of Windhoek and to train the community members to take over the profitable farm. Namibia Future Farming Trust (NFFT) on järjestö jonka hanke tähtää ruokaturvan parantamiseen ja elinkeinojen lisäämiseen Windhoekin köyhissä lähiöissä. Hankkeen toisessa vaiheessa hyödynnetään vettä säästävää aquaponics-viljelymenetelm
ää. Hanke toteutetaan yhteistyössä Windhoekin kaupungin ja keskusvankilan kanssa. Molempien kanssa oli toimittu jo hankkeen ensimmäisessä vaiheessa ja kumppanit lähtivät innolla mukaan toiseen vaiheeseen. Windhoekin kaupunki tarjoaa suuren maa-alan
 jossa harjoitetaan muutakin yhteisöviljelyä ja keskusvankila tarjoaa osaamista ja työvoimaa. Hankkeen puitteissa työllistetään vapautuneita vankeja sekä työttömiä Katuturan asukkaita.Kyseessä on innovatiivinen hanke jonka aktiviteetit ovat yksi
nkertaiset ja tavoitteet erittäin käytännönläheiset. Hanke on kestoltaan vain 12 kk ja budjetti pieni. Hankkeella voidaan parantaa elinkeinomahdollisuuksia ja lisätä ruokavalioon terveellisiä aineksia Windhoekin kaikkein köyhimmissä yhteisöissä
. Lisäksi vapautumassa olevat vangit oppivat uuden viljelymenetelmän jota he voivat hyödyntää sopeutumisessa takaisin yhteiskuntaan.

F.a: Non-formal training in support of livelihood for adult refugees in Kyangwali refugee settlement The development problem that the project aims to alleviate is poverty defined as lack of certain minimal or basic capacities needed for generating human well-being. The overall objective of the project is to alleviate poverty among the refugee population i
n Kyangwali settlement. The poverty is alleviated through increased self-reliance of beneficiaries which is achieved by building the capacities of participants by supporting their livelihood activities and training. The project has human rights based appro
ach enabling participation of different groups of refugees in the planning and implementation of the project. Special emphasis is put on participation of women and minorities. Training and group discussions will include topics on gender equility, human rig
hts and democracy. The improved level of knowledge and skills of the participants will result in increased self-esteem and better capacity to take actively part in the decision making and development activities in their communities. By including participan
ts from the vulnerable groups projects aims to reduce inequalities within refugee population. The project seeks to contribute - in a small-scale - towards climate change adaption by promoting environmentally friendly and adaptable agricultural technics wit
hin the livehood projects and trainings of supported interest groups. The project is implemented by FRC field staff together with refugees. In implementation existing leadership structures within the settlement are utilised. The supported interest groups a
re mostly existing prior to the project and selected considering different vulnerabilities. The learning groups will be established for intrested and motivated participants. The facilitators are refugees selected by the communities and then trained in part
icipatory methods and adult education by the project. The main beneficiaries are the members of those 30 groups involved, 600-800 persons. Another immediate beneficiary group are 20-25 group facilitators receiving training. Other potential beneficiaries ar
e the families of learners and facilitators and wider community. The key activities are 1) facilitators' training, 2) support for the development of the group livelihood activities as well as providing group specific thematic, literacy and language trainin
gs, 3) providing training in literacy, languages and business skills combined with small-scale group livelihood projects, 4) supporting district adult education with training.
F.a: Defending Trade Union Rights of Vulnerable Groups In the extra-component of the project the cooperation and mutual learning between Colombia’s trade union education and research institute ENS and Ecuador’s trade union education and research institute ENSec is strengthened. Colombia’s ENS has a long 
experience on education and research activities whereas Ecuador’s ENSec was established only in spring 2015 and is in the beginning of its journey. Colombia’s ENS strategically supported for the establishment of ENSec.With the budget increase a year-lo
ng mentoring and exchange programme between Colombian and Ecuadorian researchers and/or trainings is implemented. In the programme the idea is to deepen the training of trainers, strategic planning and systematic research capacity. Ecuador’s ENSec benefi
ts from Colombians’ experience and knowledge while Colombia’s ENS benefits from strengthening their regional networks and systematisation of their own strengths.SASK has supported Ecuador’s ENSec establishment and its activities in 2015-2016 together
 with Finnish Electrical Workers’ Union (project no. 3020). ENSec’s operations and activities started very well but making the organisation self-contained remains a challenge. The cooperation project with ENSec was cut during the agreement period when 
SASK focused its work in Latin America only to Colombia. The idea in the budget increase is to strengthen the capacities and know-how as well as deepen the cooperation through south-south cooperation between the two countries.For administrative reasons the
 extra-component will be attached to SASK’s and ENS’s cooperation project no. 3019 (Defending trade union rights of vulnerable groups) which contains three different components related to domestic workers’, farm workers’ and young workers’ rights
 promotion.
F.a: Strengthening of Trade Unions in Commerce Sector The project strengthens the capacity to defend workers´ rights of commerce sector trade unions in Colombia and Peru. In Latin America, large multinational chains such as Cencosud, Exito, Falabella, Ripley, Zara and Sodimac dominate retail markets. All the
se companies are known for their anti-union policies. In commerce sector, wages are poor, precarious work is very common, unions are relatively weak and their ability to bargain collectively is low. Multinational companies operating in this sector commonly
 don't comply with international agreements on workers´ rights, their own internal guidelines or the international framework agreements they have signed with the trade union movement. In many countries in Latin America, governments´ interest and ability 
to monitor companies´ activities is low. Workers´ legal rights are commonly violated in all the targeted enterprises and in both target countries. The project intends to respond to these challenges by strengthening trade union unity, creating union netwo
rks at regional and national level, and taking up proactively cases of violations to workers´ rights. The project aims at strengthening first commerce sector trade unions in Colombia and Peru through affiliation campaigns and training, and then regional n
etworking in order for the unions to get concrete tools to negotiate with multinational companies and defend the workers. As a result of this project, Colombian commerce sector union has strong representation in the biggest commerce chains, the union has s
tarted collective bargaining with the companies and the negotiation capabilities of union leaders and shop stewards are improved. In Peru, commerce sector unions have better bargaining capacity and their membership has increased. Unions have started social
 dialogue with the companies to force them to respect labor rights and agreements they have signed. Unions have also created regional networks and joint strategies. The beneficiaries of this project are 39 000 commerce sector workers in Peru and Colombia. 
The project is implemented by UNI Global Union together with its commerce sector member unions in Colombia and Peru.
