DRR Network – Small Action Credit 2013-2014 The DRR small action credit line enables timely, efficient and solution-oriented funding of short-term and non-recurring DRR initiatives and internventions that enhance the overall objective of disaster resilience and integral risk management. The promotion, the safe-guarding and the institutional mainstreaming of DRR knowledge is a key goal of the DRR network. It is through the DRR Network’s knowledge management efforts that an effective transfer to the field and into SDC’s programmes and those of its multilateral and bilateral partners takes place. DRR-related interventions contribute to SDC’s objective of transcending its strategies and programmes which again enhances SDC’s international role as a leading actor in the field of DRR. It further allows for an extensive valorization of Swiss thematic expertise.

The SABA Water and Sanitation Experience: Boosting Impact at Global Scale (SABA+) Many countries transitioning to a higher economic status still struggle on the water and sanitation component. In countries where water supply or sanitation have been installed, aggregate outcomes tend to mask that the quality of services is poor, that inequalities are increasing and improvements in access do often not reach those groups who suffer most. Thus, new models of intervention and financing strategies are required for such countries.. Through this new initiative, and by finalizing a unique scaling-up process in Peru and replicating it in post-conflict areas of Colombia, SDC will also enrich the global debate on the fulfillment of the SDGs and the gradual exercise of the human right to water with a new model of intervention and a new financing strategy.

Membership contribution to the Multilateral Organisation Performance Assessment Network (MOPAN) Since Switzerland annually spends approximately CHF 700 million in core contributions and multi-bi funding to multilateral organisations, it requires independent performance information on the beneficiary institutions in order to allow for an appropriate steering of its multilateral engagement. The Multilateral Organisation Performance Assessment Network (MOPAN) is the only multilateral body offering this type of assessments. As most Swiss priority organisations are covered by MOPAN, the participation in MOPAN is highly relevant.

Albanian VET Delivery Support Programme AlbVET Développement des écoles professionnelles. Situation initiale: En Albanie, les jeunes n’ont pas tous accès à une formation professionnelle. Le chômage pose pourtant un grave problème parmi ceux qui viennent d’achever la scolarité obligatoire, en particulier au sein des minorités ethniques et dans les régions périphériques du pays. Le Gouvernement albanais a entrepris de réformer les écoles professionnelles et édicté une loi à cet effet en 2002. La Suisse appuie cet effort de réforme depuis plus de quinze ans. Objectifs: Les jeunes doivent pouvoir suivre une formation professionnelle même dans les régions reculées d’Albanie. Les écoles existantes doivent élargir leur offre et les institutions doivent se professionnaliser. Mise en oeuvre: Comme précédemment, le projet continue à ouvrir des écoles professionnelles régionales. Un organisme central de la formation professionnelle se charge par ailleurs de fournir des services centraux, telles la définition de normes et l’attribution d’accréditations et de certifications. Le programme des cours a été assoupli par l’introduction d’un nouveau modèle d’école professionnelle, qui permet aux apprenants d’achever leur formation à n’importe quel niveau. La réalisation du projet sur place est assurée par la représentation de Swisscontact à Durres.
