F.a: Decent Work and forestry in Nepal The unions participating in the project continue organizing forest workers, with the aim of getting 10?000 new members in four years. Occupational health and safety measures continue to reduce the number of accidents and injuries in forestry work. The unio
ns advocate for legislation that influences interest representation of forestry workers, and participate in cooperation with environmental organizations to promote sustainable green jobs.  The major problems of the forestry sector are unstable work relatio
nships and dangerous working conditions. Awareness of rights, collective bargaining and union density have before the project been low, and before 2016 workers of the sector were not even officially recognized as workers. The project activities have brough
t around 20?000 new members to the unions, and close to 12?000 people have participated diverse types of trainings and advocacy work. Almost 2?000 people have through cooperatives gained additional income to supplement the forestry work, making use of othe
r products of the forest, such as tree leave plates, mushrooms, berries and honey. The cooperation with environmental organizations, especially WWF, has reduced tensions between forestry workers and environmentalists by fitting together sustainable forestr
y and conservation, as well as nature tourism.  This last project phase ensures the continuity and sustainability of the work done in the current target regions and through spreading the successful models of action to a few new districts. The project benef
its Nepalese forestry workers and their families through improved income and safety, as well as the participating unions through strengthened membership base, negotiation position and cooperation in advocacy work. The main actors of the project are BWI NAC
 (Building and Wood Workers’ International Nepal Affiliates Committee) as the coordinating cooperation body and its affiliates CAWUN (Construction and Allied Workers’ Union in Nepal), CUPPEC (Central Union of Painters, Plumbers, Electro and Constructio
n in Nepal) and ANCWU (All Nepal Construction Workers’ Union) that implement the project in cooperation with WWF Nepal.
F.a: Program development It is more challenging to involve special groups in development than socially and culturally “mainstream” population. Improving social inclusion methods in project planning and implementation the socially challenging groups can be better taken into acc
ount in development work, both as target group and actors. The development program trains all development partners in social inclusion of disabled youth in planning and implementation of development projects. The beneficiaries are the staff and target grou
ps of development partners. Disability Partnership Finland and its partners in developing countries support the training program in Finland and all partner countries.
F.a: Building strong and resilient local trade unions in the Malawi tea supply chain Malawi is Africa’s second largest tea producer, after Kenya. The tea industry is the largest formal sector employer in Malawi, employing more than 50,000 workers. The purchasing power of the CBA remains far from a living wage. Negotiation between the wor
kers and the national tea producers’ association has proved a challenge for the workers, as the trade union is struggling to maintain the 15 % minimum threshold required to grant them bargaining rights. One reason for low union membership is short term c
ontracts. In many tea estates joint consultative committees are preferred over trade union membership as they don’t have a membership fee. This has translated into inactive plantation level trade unions and shop stewards. Workers low productivity don’t
 support trade union’s demands for wage increase. Significant number of women work in the tea sector, and they face several gender-based challenges like GBV, low job security in case of pregnancy and weak opportunities for managerial positions. The issue
 of harsh treatment and harassment by capitaos and the difficulties involved in raising these issues is an important driver of vulnerability, especially for unskilled women labourers. The US Department of Labor recognizes the use of forced labour and/or ch
ild labour in the tea industry in Malawi. Elderly people, people with disabilities and people with HIV/AIDS have an even higher vulnerability to low wages, as they tend to be the first to lose their jobs during economic hardships. Malawi is also really vul
nerable for climate change and has experienced series of heavy rains, landslides and flooding.The rightsholders of the project are 6,400 workers in 2 tea plantations in Malawi, of which 23 per cent are women. The goal of the project is to ensure right to a
 sustainable livelihood for worker households in tea sector in Malawi. The purpose of the project is improved terms, conditions and rights at work. The expected outputs of the project are: 1) Strengthened trade union capacity to represent workers, 2) impro
ved worker welfare in tea estates, 3) Improved worker productivity, 4) Improved resilience and adaptation to climate change and environmental degradation by tea estates, 5) Improved gender equality, 6) Increased work opportunities for people with disabilit
ies in tea estates.The project is implemented by Fairtrade Africa in cooperation with the trade union PAWU, Tea Association of Malawi (TAML) and Oxfam. http://www.fairtradeafrica.net/
Core contribution to the UNISDR Secretariat Humanitaarinen apu; Yleistuki UNDRR:lle Core support to the ODA eligible activities of the UNISDR Secretariat (International Strategy for Disaster Risk Reduction) for the four-year period 2018-2021. The UNISDR is the focal point for disaster risk reduction within the UN system and follows and su
pports the implemantation of the Sendai Framework for Action and it's link to Agenda 2030 and climate agenda. Konfliktien ja luonnononnettomuuksien aiheuttamat menetykset ovat merkittävä kehityksen este. Ennalta varautumalla voidaan kuitenkin huomattavasti estää tuhojen laajuutta ja säästää ihmishenkiä. Koronaviruspandemia on nostanut aiempaa voimakkaammi
n esille biologiset riskit sekä kriisien terveydellisten taloudellisten ja yhteiskunnallisten seurausten väliset kytkökset. UNDRR (United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction) koordinoi YK-järjestelmän toimia katastrofiriskien vähentämiseksi j
a tukee vuonna 2015 Japanin Sendaissa hyväksytyn Sendain viitekehyksen toimeenpanoa ja seurantaa. Viitekehyksen tavoitteena on mm. vähentää katastrofien inhimillisiä ja taloudellisia vaikutuksia ja parantaa riskeihin varautumista vuoteen 2030 menness
ä. Toiminnalla edistetään myös katastrofiriskien vähentämisen kestävän kehityksen Agenda 2030:n ja ilmastotavoitteiden yhteensovittamista. Suomen rahoituksella tuetaan muun muassa vähiten kehittyneitä maita ja pieniä saarivaltioita laatimaan ja 
toimeenpanemaan omia kansallisia katastrofiriskien vähentämisstrategioitaan.
HALO/Humanitarian Mine Action in Somalia HALO/Humanitaarinen miinatoiminta Somaliassa HALO?s project will support and strengthen Somalia?s security stability and development through humanitarian mine action and stockpile destruction. HALO?s project seeks to 1) contribute to the human security and reduce civilian accidents and casualties by 
limiting the impact and proliferation of explosive items 2) contribute to the peace dividend and assist fragile communities in their own efforts to reinstate a working and stable society and 3) reduce poverty and hunger by removing blockage to high priorit
y infrastructure water access and roads. The project takes place in two phases: First completing the manual clearance of Somaliland at which point mine action in Somaliland will become completely owned funded and implemented by national authorities with su
fficient capacity to tackle any residual tasking. Finland has supported this project since 2003. Second HALO will seek and destroy community held or abandoned stockpiles of ammunition held outside of state control across their area of operations in Souther
n Somalia. The primary beneficiaries of the project are local populations in areas where HALO will conduct mine clearance and stockpile destruction. Finland will support HALO?s project in Somalia during 2017-2020 with one million euros. HALOn hankkeen tavoitteena on tukea ja vahvistaa Somalian turvallisuutta vakautta ja kehitystä humanitaariselle miinatoiminnalla sekä ammusvarastojen tuhoamisella. HALOn tavoitteena on 1) inhimillisen turvallisuuden parantuminen ja siviiliuhrien määrä
n vähentyminen räjähteiden vaikutuksia ja leviämistä rajoittamalla 2) rauhan rakentamiseen vaikuttaminen tukemalla hauraan valtion omia yrityksiä rakentaa toimivaa ja vakaata yhteiskuntaa sekä 3) köyhyyden ja nälänhädän vähentäminen poistamal
la maa-alueiden kulun ja käytön esteitä. Hanke toteutetaan kahdessa osassa: Ensin Suomen vuodesta 2003 tukema raivaustyö saatetaan loppuun Somalimaassa ja miinatoiminta alueella siirtyy kokoaan kansallisten toimijoiden vastuulle. Tämän jälkeen HALO 
toteuttaa ammusvarastojen jotka eivät ole valtion hallussa paikallistamista ja tuhoamista Etelä-Somaliassa. Hankkeen hyödynsaajina ovat erityisesti paikalliset yhteisöt joiden lähialueilla tehdään miinanraivausta tai joiden hallussa on räjähdevara
stoja. Suomi tukee HALOn Somalian hanketta vuosina 2017-2020 yhteensä 1 miljoonalla eurolla.

F.a: Women's income generating support WINGS project 1. Project: 11777 Women's Income Generating Support (WINGS) Project #2. Project area and Country: Kamwenge district, Uganda #3. Project justification: #In the Kamwenge district the poverty level at 77.8% is one of the highest in Uganda. The influx of Congo
lese refugees in Kamwenge has put significant pressure on social services in the district. The women in the project location areas (9 sub-counties) have the highest illiteracy rates (65%), work longer hours, produce most of the food consumed in households 
and are more vulnerable due to their limited access to cash income and resources such as land, which are largely controlled by men. Due to high illiteracy rates and lack of employment opportunities, women do not have the necessary incomes to address their 
and their familys needs and to break the vicious cycle of chronic poverty.  #4. The main objective and expected results:#The WINGS project will address the above-mentioned challenges and work with women, especially girls, from the nine sub-counties to incr
ease their household income through savings and investment.#The main objective of the project is to reduce household poverty for 75% of the targeted women so that they can meet their basic needs and are food secure by end of 2019. This will be accomplished
 through enhanced capacities of the 4800 VSLA members to accumulate savings, the targeted girls and womens improved skills in agricultural practices and in business management and entrepreneurship, as well as increased participation of women and girls in d
ecision making in the targeted villages.#5. Right-holders/ beneficiaries: 4,800 marginalized women and girls#Duty bearers: District Local leadership (Commercial Officer, Community Development Officers, Sub-county Chiefs, Chief Administrative officer), poli
ticians and religious leaders.#6. Implementing partner: Rural Action Based Organization (RACOBAO)
