Kvinna till Kvinna SPACE-programme 2024 Civil Society Strategy Kvinna till Kvinna insatsavtal SPACE-programmet 2024 CSO-strategin The Kvinna till Kvinna Foundation (KtK) works for gender equality and women's participation in peace processes in countries affected by war and conflict in line with UN Security Council Resolution 1325 (and the subsequent resolutions on the Women, Peace and Security Agenda). KtK's application to Sida for support for the program "Strengthening Peacebuilders' Actions for Community Engagement -¬ SPACE" was for the years 2024-2028. This agreement has been signed for eleven months due to the government's steering to Sida in the appropriation direction. Within the SPACE program, KtK works with four thematic areas of change: 1) feminist peace, 2) political and economic rights, 3) gender-based violence (GBV) and sexual, reproductive health and rights (SRHR), and 4) feminist movements. KtK supports more than 60 local partner organizations within the framework of the SPACE program in KtK's four geographical operating regions: Sub-Saharan Africa, South Caucasus and Ukraine, Western Balkans, and Middle East and North Africa (MENA). The programme is assessed as relevant to the CSO Strategy 2024 and its target areas: 1) Strengthening the capacity of civil society in developing countries; and 2) Conditions for civil society actors in developing countries to operate. Kvinna till Kvinna (KtK) arbetar för jämställdhet och kvinnors deltagande i fredsprocesser i länder drabbade av krig och konflikt i linje med FN:s säkerhetsrådsresolution 1325 (och de efterföljande resolutionerna om kvinnor, fred och säkerhetsagendan). KtK:s ansökan till Sida om stöd för programmet "Strengthening Peacebuilders' Actions for Community Engagement -¬ SPACE" gällde åren 2024-2028. Detta avtal har tecknats på elva månader p g a regeringens styrning till Sida i regleringsbrevet.
Inom SPACE-programmet arbetar KtK med fyra tematiska förändringsområden: 1) feministisk fred, 2) politiska och ekonomiska rättigheter, 3) könsrelaterat våld (GBV) och sexuell, reproduktiv hälsa och rättigheter (SRHR), och 4) feministiska rörelser. KtK stödjer dryga 60-talet lokala partnerorganisationer inom ramen för SPACE-programmet i KtK:s fyra geografiska verksamhetsregioner: Afrika söder om Sahara, Södra Kaukasus och Ukraina, Västra Balkan samt Mellanöstern och Nordafrika (MENA).
Programmet bedöms som relevant för CSO-strategin 2024 och dess målområden 1) Stärkt kapacitet hos civilsamhället i utvecklingsländer; och 2) Förutsättningar för civilsamhällesaktörer i utvecklingsländer att verka. Sida följer upp insatsen på nivån "CIVSAM Global Outcomes", till vilken resultat från landprogram och den regionala nivån förväntas bidra. "CIVSAM Global Outcomes" har följande 12 mål (WCSO's står för "Women Civil Society Organizations"). Notera att bedömningen är gjord på ett femårigt resultatramverk.
