UN Women: Supporting Syrian Womens Engagement in the Syrian Political Process UN Women: tuki naisten osallistumiselle Syyrian poliittiseen prosessiin UN Women's project aims at supporting the participation of Syrian women in the process in two ways. The project will 1) Support the Women's Advisory Board (WAB) with targeted capacity development and technical support to enable their meaningful role in sup
port of the Special Envoy and his mediation efforts; and 2) Reinforce a unified Syrian women movement around a common agenda. The project is very well aligned with the Finnish Strategy for Development Cooperation and Humanitarian aid in response to the con
flicts in Syria and Iraq 20172020 and with the Women Peace and Security National Action Plan. Finnish support is 800.000 Euros for the time of 7/2018 - 12/2019. UN Womenin hankkeen päämääränä on tukea syyrialaisten naisten osallistumista rauhanprosessiin kahdella raiteella: 1) YK:n Syyria-erityisedustajalle neuvoja antavan Women?s Advisory Boardin (WAB) kautta (Track I); sekä 2) tukemalla mahdollisimman laa
japohjaisen syyrialaisen kansalaisyhteiskunnan koalition syntymistä naisten oikeuksien ja tasa-arvon puolustamiseksi (Track II). Hanke on erittäin tärkeä osa Suomen Suomen kehitysyhteistyön ja humanitaarisen avun ohjelmaa 2017?2020: Syyria ja Irak sek

F.a: Honey for the future The project supports small producers in Guatemala to generate income from honey production and improves their capacities to mitigate and adapt to the effects of climate change. It also supports the Latin American honey network to advocate for the honey pro
ducers and increase their markets. Beekeeping can be a great source of income generation for small producers in Guatemala, as well as an alternative source of income for coffee producers. However, in recent years, bees and beekeeping are facing multiple ch
allenges. The human activities such as deforestation, the development of intensive monocultures, the use of pesticides and agrochemicals among others, are directly affecting beekeeping, causing a loss of flora, fauna and biodiversity, and so altering ecosy
stems and putting the lives of bees at risk. Climate change has also a very negative influence on beekeeping. Among its most visible effects there are changes in rainfall regimes that no longer coincide with flowering seasons, causing a substantial drop in
 honey production. Moreover, due to climate change, beekeepers are experiencing a decrease in the bee population due to variations in temperatures, quality deterioration due to increase of honey moisture by increased rainfall and increase of previously und
etected pests and diseases. The goal of the project is to ensure the beekeepers’ right to a sustainable livelihood by implementing a holistic strengthening strategy. The project’s purpose is improved capacities of small beekeepers’ organizations in G
uatemala to adapt to climate change. The project also supports CLAC’s Honey Network to assume the role of representation and leadership for the small honey producers in the region. Direct beneficiaries of the project are 7 organizations of small honey pr
oducers with a total of 1320 producers, of which 300 are women. During the project implementation, the project is encouraging more people to test and start honey production, thus the number of beneficiaries will increase. Especially the project encourages 
women, youth and rural poor to consider beekeeping as a livelihood option. Implementing partner organizations are Latin American and the Caribbean network of small Fairtrade producers, CLAC and la Coordinadora Guatemalteca de Pequenos Productores de Comerc
io Justo (CGCJ) in collaboration with honey importing company Hunajainen Sam and an educational organisation ECOSUR. http://clac-comerciojusto.org/ http://www.cgcj.org.gt/

FLC: Wajir Women for Peace - a gender perspective approach to violence against women and girls in Wajir County Social and cultural norms continue to undermine ongoing legal and administrative efforts helping to sustain gender inequalities which hinder women and girls from fully exercising their rights and make them vulnerable to preventable death and disability.Stu
dies show that the patriarchal system in Kenya and particularly among the Somali Community combined with absence of rights at the household level have made women and girls vulnerable to violence and it is time for every man woman and leaders in Kenya to st
art doing something to end the scourge of violence against women and girls in their homes and communities.FGM  for example is an old age barbaric act that was and is still used to subdue and violate the rights of women in many counties. It is widely practi
ced by some communities in Kenya as a heritage of the past and is often associated with ethnic identity as a rite of passage. Despite horrors and life long consequences that it puts women through it is still practiced with impunity. In Kenya an estimated 2
7.1% of girls and women aged 15-49 years have undergone FGM (DHS 2008- 09) a figure that has decreased from 37.6% % in 1998 and 32.2% in 2003. There are significant regional variations with prevalence ranges from 0.8% in the west to over 97% in the North-E
ast (DHS 2008-09). The practice is particularly widespread among the Somalis in the North Eastern province (97.7%) with 75% having undergone Type III infibulation. The prevalence is also highest among the Kisii (96.1%) and the Maasai (73.2%).

F.a: Deeper Inclusiveness in Political Parties: Participation of Women and Youth with Disabilities Demo Finland, otgether with its Partners ZNWL and DRW has planned a pilot project linked to disability inclusion in politics in Zambia. This is ground breaking, as the minimal work done globally with persons with disabilities in politics has been purely fo
cused on elections, and typically accessibility issues on the election day. Working with political parties to ensure inclusivity of the disabled not only as objects, but active subjects is a highly needed and innovative way on improving the civil and polit
ical rights of the disabled, and in this case the disabled women.  In Zambia, Demo Finland´s work with its local partner ZNWL has focused on inclusion of women in politics since 2013 and the experience and working modalities on gender inclusion can be uti
lized in the field of disability inclusion also, in cooperation with a local disability NGO.  However, In 2018 assessment and appraisal processes were made, involving needs assessment workshops with politically active disabled women. A project proposal was
 created and further external funding will be needed for its full implementation. The existing funding does not allow the full implementation of this kind of pioneering programme in 2019.
Securing an enabling environment: Supporting and protecting human rights defenders worldwide (...) ISHR Ihmisoikeuspuolustajien toimintaedellytysten turvaaminen: Ihmisoikeuspuolustajien tuki ja suojelu maailmanlaajuisesti This project Securing an enabling environment will support human rights defenders in their vital work to promote human rights good government and the rule of law and will leverage the international and regional human rights systems to provide protection an
d prevent regression in the operating environment at the national level. The project will ensure that human rights defenders are better networked and capacitated in their strategic use of international and regional human rights systems and mechanisms. It w
ill also ensure that international and regional mechanisms develop standards and make recommendations which respond to the situation operating environment and protection needs of defenders and become more accessible effective and protective in pushing for 
change on the ground. Further an increased number of jurisdictions will enact and effectively implement specific national laws and mechanisms to recognise and protect human rights defenders in line with the UN Declaration on Human Rights Defenders (which I
SHR had a key role in bringing about) and the recently launched landmark Model National Law on Human Rights Defenders endorsed by 27 eminent human rights experts). Defenders of LGBTI rights womens and ESC rights  are priorities of and for this project with
 e.g. ISHR planning organising and convening with partners a much-needed General Comment to the Yogyakarta Principles on this key documents 10th anniversary (2017) co-steering the first and only space for defenders and multinational corporations to regular
ly come together to meet and to push for constructive human rights defender-related changes with their corporate social responsibility policies in line with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and training a new generation of defenders i
n multiple languages working on these thematic issues to use the international and regional human rights systems and mechanisms. Projekti tukee ihmisoikeuspuolustajia työssään ihmisoikeuksien hyvän hallinnon ja oikeusvaltioperiaatteen edistämisessä sekä ohjaa kansainvälisiä ja alueellisia ihmisoikeusmekanismeja tarjoamaan suojelua ja varmistamaan toimintaympäristön kansal
lisella tasolla. Ihmisoikeuspuolustajien verkottumista ja kyvykkyyttä parannetaan mahdollistaen ihmisoikeusmekanismien paremman käytön. Lisäksi nämä mekanismit kehittäisivät standardeja ja antaisivat suosituksia jotka vastaisivat ihmisoikeuspuolust
ajien tilanteisiin ja toimintaympäristöihin. Tuloksena haetaan myös sitä että syntyisi yhä enemmän YK:n ihmisoikeuspuolustajajulistuksen mukaista kansallista lainsäädäntöä. Erityisenä prioriteettina projektissa ovat LHBTI- naisten ja TSS-oikeu
ksien puolustajat. Rahoitusta hakeva järjestö (ISHR) järjestää mm. Yogyakartan periaatteita käsittelevän kokouksen tuo yhteen ihmisoikeuspuolustajia ja monikansallisia yrityksiä ja kouluttaa uusia ihmisoikeuspuolustajia.

Planning funds for Finland's Embassy in Kathmandu for the year 2017 Hankevalmistelu Kathmandun suurlähetystössä Implementing development cooperation in Nepal requires the identification and preparation of new projects as well as managing monitoring and evaluating ongoing projects. An important part of the Embassy's work is also cooperation and coordination between d
onors. In addition the successful management of development cooperation funds requires the staff to regularly participate in trainings relating to Finnish development cooperation and policy.  Planning funds are annually made available to the Embassy of Fin
land in Kathmandu to address the above mentioned needs. The funds may thus be used for preparing planning monitoring and evaluating development cooperation projects and programs as well as reviews and studies related to future funding. In addition training
 needs of the staff may also be covered from these funds. Kathmandun suurlähetystön käytössä oleva määräraha joka käytetään esim. kehitysyhteistyöhankkeiden valmisteluun seurantaan ja evaluointiin sekä edustuston henkilöstön kehitysyhteistyökoulutukseen.Kehitysyhteistyön tuloksellinen toteuttamin
en Nepalissa edellyttää uusien hankkeiden identifiointia ja valmistelua sekä käynnissä olevien hankkeiden ja ohjelmien ohjausta seurantaa ja evaluointia. Keskeisenä osana toimintaa on myös avunantajien yhteistyö ja koordinointi. Lisäksi ohjelmien 
laadukas suunnittelu ja seuranta vaatii edustuston henkilökunnan osaamisen säännöllistä päivittämistä ja kehittämistä koulutuksiin osallistumisen kautta.Rahoitus vuodelle 2019 on 40 000 euroa.
