Frame agreement with NGO (Siemenpuu) The project includes the translation of the guidebook produced by Thai Human Rights Lawyers Association into English, and layout and printing of the book in Thai and English. Activities are divided into 3 stages: 1. Translation from the original Thai versi
on into English by a translator or an institution specialized in civil society work in order to communicate the story naturally and reach out to the public, 2. Production: contracting a producer specialized in pocket book to design graphic arts and story f
ormat in order to avoid serious contents for presentation to the general public.3. Distribution of the publication to various agencies through distributors of well-known printing press, post and by hand. The contents of the book is divided into 3 parts inc
luding 1) essence of the case (background of Mae Om Ki community), 2) analysis of the court case, and 3) academic articles on community/ethnic rights. Siemenpuu?s partner in this project is the Human Rights Lawyers Association (HRLA) of Thailand, which has
 helped two Karen farmers in litigation process over the past years. The rotation farmers were accused of producing climate change and sentenced to prison in a lower court, but the sentence has been since overruled. Now the case is in the Supreme Court of 
Thailand. The Karen case is a watershed case in Thailand and in Southeast Asia, and thus HRLA wants to highlight the discrimination and prejudice towards ethnic minorities that are common in the Thai society. The book also gives guidelines how to support t
he (community) rights of the ethnic minorities and how to proceed in the court cases. The primary beneficiaries of the project are the karens and other forest dwelling ethnic minorities, but the publication is targeted to public organizations (esp. forestr
y agencies), non-governmental organizations and social activists, lawyers and legal practitioners, people living in the forest areas, scholars and universities. The English version is distributed especially in Southeast Asia, where the challenges of ethnic
 minorities/indigenous people are similar. The immediate results of the project are expected to be the increase of knowledge and awareness of the situation of the forest minorities and their rights, and the increase of practical work to help them in legal 
processes.Human Rights Lawyers Association (HRLA) has been established in 2008 by a group of lawyers and attorneys aiming to upholding the rule of law, social justice and Human Rights in Thailand.

Mbabane Dry Sanitation and Waste Management Project The goal of the project is to improve sanitation and waste management in the three project communities and to disseminate best practices of Msunduza to other areas of Swaziland. The project will continue the cooperation established during the Msunduza Dry 
Sanitation Project (MDSP project code 28000301) and the Environmental Health Education Project (EHEP) and combine and utilise the best practices from the two projects. During the project the cooperation network between the University of Swaziland (UNISWA) 
Green Living Movement (GLM) Swaziland the Turku University of Applied Sciences (TUAS) and the City Council of Mbabane (CC) will organise trainings in Mnyamatsini Mangwaneni and Malagwane in sanitation waste management (reduce reuse and recycle) and grey wa
ter reuse. The education will target especially the youth of the communities which will gain skills for income generating activities (e.g. in dry toilet construction gardening and waste collection). A network between the youth groups will be established fo
r peer support. Through them the benefits will be spread to the entire community.Education will target also authorities of the field as well as representatives of different medias in order disseminate improved sanitation and waste management schemes furthe
r and to promote open discussion of the development challenges. Through UNISWA the dissemination is further enhanced by inclusion of future professionals in environmental health integration of project themes and results in their curricula and by provide re
search on critical project themes such as health risks of human originated fertilisers and test-fields with comparative analysis.Cooperation between the two local partners UNISWA and GLM will enable organisational capacity building and transfer of know-how
 for a new local NGO with limited resources. Hence they will gain valuable local networks experience of field work and skills of project management in practise.Women's and girls' participation in trainings youth groups and decision-making is emphasized. In
equality will be decreased through inclusion of the disadvantaged through increases in income and by access to sanitation.  Affects of the climate change can already be seen in Swaziland as consecutive droughts which is mitigated by constructing waterless 
sanitation facilities with rainwater harvesting systems and grey water reuse.

Frame Agreement with NGO (Finn Church Aid) United Nations Populations Fund (UNFPA) has gathered statistical evidence from gender-based violence in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Relative recently published data show no abatement in sexual violence cases. In North Kivu alone, 4689 cases were 
reported in 2011 and 7075 in 2012. Same tendency has been witnessed in South Kivu (2713 cases in 2011 and 5028 in 2012). According to UNFPA, DRC has the world?s highest number of reported gender-based violence cases.  The role of woman in the Congolese soc
iety is still very weak. Project Specific Objective: The role and participation of women in managing public affairs has improved in selected Provinces of North Kivu, South Kivu and Oriental ProvinceExpected Results:? Legal structures at Provincial level of
 North Kivu have improved to better address the issue of sexual violence? The awareness of community members in selected target communities on women?s and children?s rights has improved? Vulnerable women in selected communities participate actively in savi

Memory capsules - memories of the disappeared and executed political prisoners The general purpose is to retrieve and disseminate everyday memory of the disappeared and those executed prisoners prior to their arrest after the military coup of 1973 and the following military dictatorship through the production and broadcast of radio s
pots. Specific Objectives ? Recover the memory of everyday life of the disappeared and executed prisoners prior to their arrest after the military coup of 1973 and the Military Dictatorship through stories of family and/or significant others. ? Develop sto
ries in brief format (micro stories) containing memories submitted by their relatives and/or significant others. ? Produce stories in 1.5 minutes radio spots. ? Disseminate radio spots on other media such as websites of institutions collaborating with the 
project. ? Develop a report of work done and its projections.Through this project the transgenerational harm is a central axis which gives relevance and meaning to this particular mode of approach. Several investigations on the impact of human rights viola
tions and political violence both in Chile and in other countries have given us thoughts on the transgenerational impact of dictatorships.Another dimension that gives relevance to this proposal refers precisely to the repair. In Chile the governments in de
mocracy have focused on national reconciliation and repair of the direct victims of violations of human rights. The repair has been mainly with regard to economic and health dimensions to the affected themselves or their direct family leaving behind the so
cial fracture of the tragedy.It is relevant to note that in recent results obtained by an important survey in Chile- published in September 2013 - there is a significant number of young people who have shown no comment about the coup and Pinochet. This seg
ment between 18 and 25 are those born after 1988 and who grew up in democracy. Having access to the memory on the daily lives of direct victims of the dictatorship (in this case of detained missing and executed political prisoners) would be anchored in the
 present and closer to understanding the experiences of people involved for today?s youth.
