CO-Niger-Scaling up sustainable Over the last three years Oxfam and Ahmad Tea have worked together to provide access to clean, safe water for 19, 844 people in Ouallam district of Niger. In addition, the project has supported the creation of a national plan for water resources management, the first of its kind in Niger.
The project has also, enabled Oxfam to pilot a community-led approach to managing water resources that isspecific to geographical and political context of Niger. This has been captured and documented in a technical handbook which will be shared and used by Oxfam programmes.
Thanks to Ahmad Tea project people now have less distance to travel for clean water, securityin knowing their water supply is sustainable, increased ability to farm crops, and the knowledge to manage extreme conditions such as drought. Alongside this, we have gained a good reputation at both district and national level in Niger and have the potential to play a key influencing role in ensuring access to water is prioritised on the national agenda.
This proposal outlines a two-year extension that will enable us build on these achievements. We will reach a further 10,500 people access to clean water and ensuring itssustainable use. Alongside this, we will support the Niger government to implement their national plan and share knowledge with other civil society organisations using the handbook.
This will ensure that the impact we have to date is maximised and the communitiesbecome fully resilient and are supported to manage water resources effectively for future generation.
LaoPHA - Advocacy Initiative - LA Our project aims to influence change in the policies and in the society by debinarization of male-and-female genders in the Lao society by starting to educate LGBT people and Female sex worker to understand the concept of SOGI and increase their communication skills to talk with their peers, gatekeepers and stakeholders.

We also propose to initiate hotline and online services for LGBT peopleand Female sex worker to demonstrate broader services for LGBT people and Female sex worker other than current health programs to improve their life quality. Our goal is that LGBT people and Female sex worker in Lao PDR experience greater freedom from violence, stigma, discrimination and human rights violation based on sexual orientation and gender identity, and better access to assistance when incidence does occur.

The project directly engages LGBT people and Female sex worker with the current possibility of sexual diversity communities in Lao PDR, including the gay men community, the lesbian community and thetransgender women community. This project will ensure proportionate representation and beneficiaries.

Our activities include capacity building, outreach sessions, awareness campaigns, organizing online platforms, crisis response management (mechanism to provide assistance to LGBT people, who may experience violence or discrimination based on SOGI), production of IEC materials on SOGI and skill building on policy advocacy.

This project is line in with the International Human Rights Declaration, the Yogyakarta principles, the intent in the Constitution of Lao PDR and the Voice themes. This will be a very first project to directly address broad SOGI issues of LGBT people and Female sex workerother than specific HIV programs for men who have sex with men and transgender women, which is one of the core competence of Lao Positive Health Association (LaoPHA).

Yaiku#CountUsIn The indigenous people of Yiaku are the native inhabitants of the Mukogodo forest and over time have   been   assimilated into   stronger   tribes   especially   the   Maasai and   Samburu through intermarriages. Gradually they#ve lost their habitat, language, culture and identity, not even the government  has  an  accurate  record  on  the  population  of  the  Yiaku people,  which is  preventing their recognition as a documented tribe with a dialect. The  project will have the Yiaku people stand out andcounted in their numbers during the 2019 census in Kenya. This entails lobbying with the concerned institutions and stakeholders and creating awareness on the census in the interior areas that the government has had minimal reach due to the remoteness. Having the Yiaku people counted will show their number and assist in the bid to have them recognized as a Kenyan tribe. This will allow the Yiaku people to have a basis of seeking for their rights to resources and decision making. Women are at the fore front of this initiative, the experiencewill build their capacity and expose them to leadership and project management.

A tripartite stakeholder of public, private and civil society organizations engagement will drive the project by providing policy direction for the implementation of the project at the national and sub national levels. Civil society organizations will mobilize the communities to provide public education and sensitization on all aspects of tax systems while other civil society networks and organization will push for and demand for all necessary reforms in tax laws and policies at the national and sub national levels. Furthermore, public sector is critical to influencing supply side of the tax system leading to a revamping of the economy as a whole while the private sector will be encouraged to pay and contributeto and monitor utilization of tax revenue. Taxation  research will be carried out to provide evidence, informed programming and implementation. There will be Public enlightenment on the importance of tax payment and utilizationof revenue accrued from tax to provide infrastructure as well as social services within the project. This will be rigorously pursued as a strategy to realize the overall goal of the financing for development project.

This project is designed to built on the existing structure of the Strengthening Public Finance in Nigeria (STREPFIN) project implemented on behalf of Oxfam by Actionaid Nigeria from 2013 to 2015. The project contributed to the ongoing efforts of government and other stakeholders to tap into the potency of tax revenues for financing development. Taxation has been identified as a strong economic tool for income redistribution in order to address problems of inequality and social injustice. Progressive tax system has proven most effective and efficient economic tool to redistribute wealth and reduce minimum social injustice and inequality among several tax systems.

Under this project, the private sector will be engaged to increase their willingness and readiness to pay tax proportionate to their earnings. Although, this might not come with ease, effort will be made to influence and cut down private sector undesired practices through reform of tax laws and policies to discourage tax evasion, avoidance and under payment by some private companies. There are activities targeted at increasing influencing at both the demand andsupply side of taxation. In addition, the project will work with identified relevant government ministries, department and agenciesat national and state levels in orderto influence and bring about the needed reforms in existing tax laws, policy and practices to address the supply side of the tax administration.  Tax reform alone is not an end in itself, but a means to an end. To this end, public education and campaignmust be rigorously pursued to provide required tax education and stimulate active participation of citizens in the management and utilization of tax revenues. This will contribute to and promote culture of transparency; citizens# participation and accountability thus achieving demand side of the tax system.

APCOM WISDOM in South-East Asia APCOM, CfP reference; V1601-XG-IL-045.
APCOM will work with partners in Indonesia, the Philippines, Cambodia and Lao PDR to strengthen the capacity of the most HIV-affected communities and their peer based organisation to participate in national and regional responses to HIV.
This learning project wants to capture the lessons from their pilot project on capacity strengthening #JumpStar# in 2015/2016. JumpStar was defined a success because it enabled APCOM to build expertise in technical support and advocacy as well as build credibility among civil society in Asia and the Pacific. However, capacity strengthening proved a challenge and targets and objectives were missed. Therefore, WISDOM will test whether it would be more effective to have fewer partners (four instead of seven), focus on local advocacy material for bigger local impact and more intensive mentoring to overcome their previous challenges. Looking at the HIV context in Asia there is a strong need to strengthen the capacity and to deepen the learnings of organisations working with sexually diverse people and people with different gender orientations in the four different countries.
Mise en oeuvre de loi 58-2017 Kairouan Since October 2015, some 60 feminist organizations have organized themselves as National Coalition of Association for the Elimination of Violence Against Women and Girls (CNAV). The positive record of this coalition, which largely contributed to the adoption on July 26 of the integral law, motivated the decision of the members to continue its actions and to extend its mandate beyond the adoption of the law. Oxfam's role as advocacy and co-ordinator of this coalition was welcomed by coalition members and renewed.
This intervention will allow the coalition to continue to play a major role in the implementation of this law in Kairouan, including its popularization and monitoring of implementation, as well as the work on social attitudes and norms in order to minimize the resistance that exists. could hinder its implementation.
