Decentralized Forest and other Natural Resources Management Programme Metsä- ja muiden luonnonvarojen paikallishallinnon tukiohjelma Although Zambia has one of the fastest growing economies in Africa the poverty rate in rural areas - 77 % in 2011 - has not decreased and the gap between the wealthiest and poorest population is growing. There is a direct link between poverty and the statu
s of environment and natural resources. Most of the rural population is highly dependent on forest resources for food security e.g. non-wood forest resources (nuts fruit mushroom caterpillars) on wood resources for constructions and as source of energy. Al
so in poverty stricken rural areas extraction of trees for charcoal production and timber offer the main source of income. The use and management of forest and other natural resources in Zambia are complex and challenging for most stakeholders especially f
or the local communities. This project is aimed at developing a mechanism that can address the difficulties faced by local stakeholders in forest and natural resources management and contribute to the sustainable use and management of forest and other natu
ral resources. Vaikka Sambia luetaan yhdeksi Afrikan nopeimmin kasvavista talouksista köyhyysaste maaseudulle ? 77% vuonna 2011 ? ei ole vähentynyt ja kuilu rikkaimman ja köyhimmän väestön välillä kasvaa. Köyhyyden ja toisaalta ympäristön ja luonnonvarojen til
an välinen yhteys on suora. Suurin osa maaseudun väestöstä on erittäin riippuvaisia metsävaroista ruokaturvallisuutensa takaamiseksi (esim. pähkinät hedelmät sienet toukat) sekä puuvaroista rakentamiseen ja energialähteeksi. Lisäksi köyhimmill
ä maaseudun alueilla puutavaran ja puuhiilen tuotanto on väestön pääasiallinen tulonlähde. Sambian metsien ja muiden luonnonvarojen hallinta on monimutkaista ja haastavaa erityisesti paikallisväestölle. Hankkeen tavoitteena on kehittää mekanismi 
jolla kyettäisiin käsittelemään paikallisen väestön kohtaamia haasteita metsien ja luonnonvarojen hallinnassa ja edistää metsien ja luonnonvarojen kestävää käyttöä.
F.a: Partneship Programme PP2 The project aims to increase the capacity of small human rights organizations in western Uganda, which is marginalized area and where the capacity of the human rights actors is weaker than those of, for example, from the capital. The analysis related to pr

FLC: Reaching most deprived children with quality educational services in Wadi Khaled North Lebanon? PYM: Haavoittuvimpien lasten kouluttaminen pohjois Libanonissa Access to quality educational services is improved for the most vulnerable children in Wadi Khaled Akkar northern Lebanon. The project will improve the educational skills and well-being of 100 vulnerable Lebanese and Syrian children aged 7 - 15 including t

MYA/Geology ICI MYA/Geologian IKI-yhteistyöhanke Reduction of poverty protection of the environment and promotion of equality democracy and human rights are fundamental goals for sustainable development. In this context the mineral sector has a continually growing role. The geo-sector forms a basis not o
nly for the use of natural resources but for a considerable part of environment monitoring and protection. Therefore long term good governance and proper management of the whole sector prerequisites good geo-information system. In general the lack of a pro
per information management system hinders: ? Modern communication between governmental institutions and potential user agencies ? Access to information supplied by mining operators and mining institutions ? Effective promotion of the mineral sector in Myan
mar ? Cross border environmental monitoring and mineral prospecting ? Improved good governance in the field of natural resources ? Transparency of the licensing system in order to minimize corruption Myanmar is a typical country at the early phase of devel
opment where versatile earth-scientific data and information are required to respond to various plans of infrastructure and resources development. Sustainable use of land and its resources cannot take place without data and information on their characteris
tics. These needs could be best achieved by developing a ?National Geo-information Centre?. GTK ja Myanmarin kaivosviranomaiset ovat sopineet seuraavista IKI-hankkeeseen sisältyvistä toiminnoista:- Luodaan Kaivosministeriön yhteinen geotietokeskus ja vahvistetaan tiedonhallintaa kouluttamalla henkilöstöä.- Järjestetään yksi tai kaksi noi
n kahden viikon mittaista geologista kartoituskurssia geologisilla avainalueilla Mandalayn lähistöllä. Kurssien avulla opitaan GIS-pohjaista digitaalista geologista kartoitusta havaintojen tekoa dokumentointia maastossa ja tallennusta tietokantoihin sek
ä digitaalisen geologisen kartan tuottamista GIS työkaluin. - Kootaan markkinointimateriaalia; Myanmarin malmipotentiaali/ sijoita Myanmarin mineraaleihin ja rakennetaan Kaivosministeriön oma messuosasto seuraaville kansainvälisille kaivosalan messuill
e Yangoniin ja mahdollisesti myös muualle Aasiaan. Järjestetään markkinointi- ja muutoskoulutusta ylemmälle johdolle.- Kommentoidaan uutta kaivoslakiluonnosta.Hankkeen budjetti on 580 000 euroa vuosille 2014-15. Maalla on mittavat luonnonvarat mutta k
aivossektroin osaaminen on varsin kehittymätöntä. Hankkeen myötä Myanmarin kaivossektorin osaaminen ja kapasiteetti lisääntyvät ja maan mahdollisuus vaikuttaa luonnonvarojensa hallintaan lisääntyy. Pitkällä tähtäimellä koko maa hyötyy hankk
een tuloksista.

F.a: Promoting ELUM and Networking for Livelihoods Improvement PELUM – Kenya (Participatory Ecological Land Use Management Kenya) was established in 1995, is the Kenyan branch of the PELUM network operating in East, South and Central Africa, and works towards the strengthening of sustainable agriculture and rights o
f small farmers. PELUM Kenya has currently 44 member organisations and is an active participant in among another Kenya’s biodiversity coalition KBiOC and Kenia’s organic agriculture network (KOA). Internationally PELUM Kenya is especially networked thr
ough the PELUM network, but it is also participating in the African Biodiversity Network. www.pelum.net. PELUM Kenya network has been working out a formula for strengthening members efforts within different regions/zones. At the PELUM Kenya Annual General 
Meeting held in May 2014 it was deliberated and agreed that the network establishes 6 networking zones which were then approved by the AGM (supreme decision making body of the Network).This project aims to improve livelihoods of Small Scale Farmers working
 with member organizations through application of ecological land use management (elum) practices and networking. This will be achieved through strengthening the zonal networking zones already established in the network whose membership is drawn from acros
s the country (Kenya). The main achievements of this support will be;1. Increased participation in ELUM policy development among the 1,600,000 farmers targeted by the MOs within the 6 networking Zones 2. Improved food security at the household and zonal le
vels targeted by the PELUM Kenya network3. Increased information sharing and involvement of the county government leadership in ELUM policy discourse, development, adoption, implementation and enforcement
F.a: Community Based Rehabilitation Project The project supports the community based rehabilitation work of the Thuso Rehabilitation Center in the northern communities of Botswana. The project brings the rehabilitation services close to the people with disabilities (PWD’s) in their own living envi
ronment. The rehabilitation team reaches out to and registers new PWD’s, follows up the progress of rehabilitation in homes, as well as educates and helps village communities in supporting and integrating the PWD’s in the community activities.Northern 
Botswana is a sparsely populated semi-dry savanna area where the distances between villages are long. The PWD’s do not have access to rehabilitation services. In addition, the lack of knowledge and attitudes of villagers towards disability further delay 
the PWD’s from seeking rehabilitation and prevents them from becoming full members of the society. The project brings rehabilitation treatments to the PWD’s and promotes their independent living at home and in the community.As a result of the project t
he health situation of PWD' has improved and the disability related skills and knowledge increased.The beneficiaries of the project are the people with disabilities of Ngami, Okavango, Chobe, Ghanzi and Charles Hill areas.The project is implemented by the 
Thuso Rehabilitation Center, which has a long experience in community based rehabilitation work in Botswana.
