FLC: Strengthening local natural resources management (NRM) institutions and empowering local communities advocate for improved governance Community-based Natural Resources Management (CBNRM) is a development approach that supports natural resource conservation. More conservation-minded people will define CBNRM as a natural resources conservation approach that brings along income and employme
nt. One could also argue that conservation of natural resources and sustainable use of these resources for the benefit of the community are two sides of the same coin. The community is more inclined to conserve natural resources if is able to realize benef
its accruing form such an activity. The wise use of these resources is a precondition for sustained development. CBNRM rests on the recognition that local communities must have direct control over the utilization and benefits of natural resources - wildlif
e forests water resources - in order to value them in a sustainable manner. CBNRM is both a conservation and rural development strategy involving community mobilization and organization institutional development comprehensive training enterprise developmen
t and monitoring of the natural resource base. It therefore aims for local stakeholder participation in the planning development management and policy making for a community as a whole.In the recent past the issue of community participation has been emphas
ized in the Kenyan constitution and subsequent legislations and these present opportunities for engagement to further promote CBNRM nationally and at county level.  To optimize on the opportunities there is need to look at some core areas that support the 
participation of citizens through robust advocacy mechanisms. They include but are not limited to:  Citizen Awareness institutional strengthening and capacity building planning implementation monitoring + evaluation feedback + reporting mechanisms financia
l resource mobilization and Citizen Engagement Forums. There is therefore need for practitioners and local institutions to have a common understanding of the current opportunities understand inherent institutional weaknesses and form a strong advocacy coal
ition to tap into the few existing opportunitiesThis project therefore hopes to bring together CBNRM practitioners from different sectors (forestry and water) to share common principles and approaches informed by experiences and to ensure that their voice 
informs the County integrated development strategies and plans.

Support for institutionalising the CDF mechanism in Ethiopia Yhteisörahoitusmalli CDF:n käytön laajentaminen kansalliselle tasolle Etiopiassa Finland provides the Government of Ethiopia strategic technical and financial support for mainstreaming and scaling up the use of Community Development Fund (CDF) on federal level. The key feature of CDF is that it transfers funds and project management re
sponsibilities for physical construction directly to communities via a micro credit institution. The communities are fully responsible for the development process through planning implementation and maintenance. The results of CDF have been promising. Suomen kehittämä CDF (Community Development Fund) -rahoitusmallin käyttö halutaan laajentaa koko Etiopiaan. Malli on kehitetty Suomen rahoittaman Amharan osavaltion maaseudun vesihuolto- ja ympäristöohjelmassa jossa CDF on osoittautunut erittäin teh
okkaaksi ja siksi sitä ollaan nostamassa koko Etiopian vesisektorin käyttöön. CDF eroaa muista Etiopian WASH-sektorin rahoitusmalleista erityisesti siten että varainhallinta- hankinta- ja toteutusvastuu on siirretty suoraan yhteisöille ja rahoituksen
 hallinnointi ja kanavointi on ulkoistettu yksityiselle toimijalle. Malli on todettu sektorin keskiarvoa paremmaksi kustannustehokkuudessa rakennustahdissa ja tuloksien kestävyydessä.Suomen Amharan alueen maaseudun vesihuolto- ja ympäristöhankkeessa ot
ettiin vuonna 2003 käyttöön ohjelmassa tukirahan tehokkaaseen kanavoimiseen kehitetty Community Development Fund (CDF). CDF:n käyttöä on myös pilotoitu vaiheittain 2008 ja 2009 Benishangul-Gumuzin osavaltiossa. Suomen ohjelman tavoitteena on tukea j
a turvata CDF-yhteisrahoitusmallin laaja käyttöönotto Etiopiassa ja siten merkittävästi parantaa maaseudun yhteisöjen elinoloja nopeutetun vesihuolto- ja sanitaatiokattavuuden kasvun myötä.
F.a: Regional Coordination and Capacity Building Programme Regional Coordination and Capacity Building Programme. The Regional Coordination and Capacity Building Programme aims to build up local partners’ capacity to do holistic development work and to create a well-functioning network of these partners. Over th
e years Fida’s work in South Asia has expanded and this has created a need for systematic coordination and capacity-building for the partners in the entire region. In Nepal, Bangladesh and Pakistan, Fida partners with the national Assemblies of God churc
h of each country. The programme brings together and networks Fida’s partners in the region; first within each country and then between the countries. Through the programme the partners also receive training in various mainstreaming themes, such as HIV/A
IDS and gender and are encouraged to integrate the themes into all of their projects. Through a well-functioning network, the partners are able to share experiences and learn from each other. This has a positive influence on the effectiveness and quality o
f their work, and increases their impact at community level.
F.a: Skills training and employment promotion A vast majority of the inhabitants of Bo – the second city in Sierra Leon - live in extreme poverty. There is a high unemployment among young people especially those within the youth age bracket (between the ages of 17 to 35 years). The area also has a v
ery high school dropout rate among young people due to various factors ranging from lack of finances to continue their education to having to work for an income to support other more vulnerable family members. The continuous increase in the fees and cost o
f University education is drastically decreasing access to that level of education for the poor and vulnerable. Consequently, this makes the improvement of the options, quality and access to technical and vocational training institutions extremely importan
t.However, despite these trainings, unemployment remains high as the trained youths lacked the level of skills and competencies required for accessing employment. And for those who wanted to become self-employed they lacked the skills required to turn busi
ness ideas into bankable business plans. Moreover, access to credit facilities and business advisory services continues to be a limitation. The need to improve on the employability of the graduates so that they fit into the context of the work place also r
emains a challenge.The key objectives of the project are to improve the livelihoods of poor young male and female artisans in relation to their respective trades, to adopt improved entrepreneurial practices in the production and sale of goods/services and 
access  resources, business advisory services and wider markets.It is also ensured that the training delivered at the centre meets the industries requirements and occupational standards for key sectors to support a competency based certification – this w
ill require partnership with the private sector.The main activity is vocational and skills training in carpentry, masonry, tailoring, welding, hairdressing and catering services. The cross cutting courses will include: literacy and numeracy, life skills, e
mployability skills to include interpersonal skills, communication skills comportment and sensitivity to diversity.Rights-holders /beneficiaries: Vulnerable urban and peri-urban youthImplementing partner: Rehabilitation and Development Agency (RADA)

F.a: Developing District Level Hospitals Developing Potonggang and Jongju District Hospitals. The project seeks to improve the quality of health services at Potonggang and Jongju District Hospitals. The health care system in North Korea suffers from extensive lack of resources and well-trained st
aff. District level hospitals are unable to provide even basic health care for the residents. Fida cooperates with two district hospitals, one in the capital city of Pyongyang and the other in North Pyongan Province. The project provides training for medic
al staff in various aspects of modern medicine. The two hospitals are given support in improving basic health care services, and they also receive equipment and other supplies through the project. Through training, the hospital staff’s professional knowl
edge and understanding of modern medicine will increase. Material assistance, in turn, helps the hospitals to provide much-needed health services to the residents. As a result, the overall quality of district-level health services will improve.
F.a: Community Capacity Development Programme Coastal Community Development Programme in Krishna District. The Coastal Community Development Programme focuses on increasing the attitude of self-help in local communities in the district of Krishna. Fida partners with the Full Gospel Churches of India (
FGCI). The work concentrates on the poorest communities in the vulnerable coastal region where most families get their income from agriculture labour and fishing. The main approach of the programme is that of Community Health Education (CHE). Through the p
rogramme the village communities gain courage as well as practical tools and know-how for developing their own communities. For instance, Community Health Educators are trained and self-help groups formed in each village, and youth (men and women) are trai
ned in vocational skills. As the people in the villages learn new skills and are encouraged to take initiative, they become willing and able to develop their own communities. And as they begin to take action, the quality of life in the communities improves
. In several villages the increased attitude of self-help has already led to a great deal of improvements in e.g. children’s school attendance, adult literacy, livelihood skills and means, and prevention of common diseases.
