F.a: Organisational Strengthening of the Philippine Metalworkers Alliance PMA The project will reinforce the Philippine Metalworkers Alliance (PMA) by increasing its’ membership base, by improving its’ union dues collection and expanding its’ educational activities.During the project phase PMA organizes new company-based trade
 unions as affiliates, forms four council for the automotive, electrical-cable, electronics, and iron, and steel industries, whose task is to enhance the sector-specific organizing, lobbying and educational activities. PMA leaders’ and officials’ capac
ities will be developed using various trainings and affiliates performance will be improved and stabilized using industry-specific membership events and training sessions. Also, PMA's financial sustainability will be improved by enhancing recovery of dues 
and shifting to percentage-based membership fees system.Trade union work in the Philippines is very difficult, since forming the company-specific trade union is legally extremely heavy and slow process that takes resources from the trade unions. PMA's orga
nizational capacity to respond to sector- and workplace-specific problems in very challenging operating environment is inadequate. The union simply does not have enough officials to do interest representation, organizing and training of the members and ele
cted officials.Expected immediate results are PMA’s growth in membership and affiliates (14 new company-specific trade affiliates and a total of 10 000 new members). Union activists’ and leaders’ capacity is growing as a result of the trainings and a
lso the economic situation of PMA improves because of union membership growth and increase in efficiency of recovery of dues.The beneficiaries are PMA’s members, activists and leaders.The project is implemented by Philippine Metalworkers Alliance (PMA) w
hich represents 7000 metalworkers in Automotive-, Electronics-, Electrical-Cable-, Iron and Steel and Shipping sectors.

F.a: Centre for Victims of Torture The project trains people who work with women suffered from violence. The aim is to train doctors, lawyers, police officers, and human rights activists, so that they can better work to promote rights of the women, victims of violence. Violence against wome
n in Nepal is a widespread problem, to which the authorities do not interfere with the necessary severity - at least on a practical level. For example, Amnesty International recently reported that the police authorities in cases of violence against women t
ake more the side of the guilty than the victim's side. Domestic violence is seen as a private matter for families and abused women rarely even seek help for the known obstacles. Lawyers often do not like to assume responsibility for cases of violence agai
nst women-related, and when the evidence has not been adequately documented, the victims are virtually impossible to get justice. The main objective is to promote rights of the women, victims of violence. The aim is to guarantee access to the relevant serv
ices, and to increase the capacity service providers and the authorities, so that women's rights are better met. The beneficiaries are the authorities participating in the project. The project also offers support to 50 women suffered from violence and info
rms women about the services for victims of violences. The project is implemented in the Kavre county. CVICT was founded and registered as an NGO in 1990 and was originally used by volunteers for Victims of Torture in Kathmandu. Organization's founders wer
e doctors, social workers and nurses. CVICTin focuses on increasing rehabilitation of torture victims and prevention of torture. Legal aid has long been a part of the CVICTin the support of victims of torture. www.cvict.org.np
