s, but the implementing of the legislation is lagging behind. Visually impaired are welcomed to many schools but the staff lacks the knowledge about different kind of teaching methods and the schools can?t afford the assistive devices. Many DPOs think that

ly environment and have their rights respected. These objectives are reached by working with the targeted children families and communities to empower them to effectively protect and care for their children in cooperation with local authorities and service

KGZ/Supporting the judicial protection of journalists in Kyrgyzstan by strengthening the potential of linguistic expertise In the Kyrgyz judicial system linguistic experts are often called upon to make determinations on the texts in media reports particularly with regard to their possibly libelous character or incitement to religious and ethnic hatred. However there are few tr
ained linguistic experts in the country and no uniform training materials.The project aims at strengthening the capacity of linguistic experts and journalists through trainings and by drafting the first reference manual on the subject. Linguistic experts t
rained in a uniform manner and aware of international media freedoms and standards are much better able to give informed and unbiased testimony in courts hence assisting individual journalists and media outlets in providing a qualified defense. Journalists
 also can resort to a professional linguist during pre-trial detention and in conflict on disputed texts.
Civil society capacity-building and UN advocacy: strengthening regional and international networks The project focuses on mainstreaming the cross-cutting themes of development co-operation (climate change gender equality and reducing inequality) through strenghtening the regional and international civic society networks and better linking them with the 
UN Major Groups system. Economic and social inequality and marginalization hinder development worldwide. The detrimental effects of climate change fall upon the groups already in a vulnerable position such as the indigenous people. Marginalized groups such
 as disabled women in developing countries face multilpe discrimination.The project is based on consolidating the already existing regional networks in East Africa Central Asia and Caucasus and integrating these actors more effectively to the work of the U
N Major Groups.The main methods of this initiative are advocacy work method workshops where regional actors can share their experiences and functioning practices deepen the know-how within their own sector and get support from experienced UN advocacy work 
professionals. The results of the workshop in 2015 will be produced as a book in 2016. The project includes a board game produced with facilitated teamwork. The board game familiarizes the importance of the cross-cutting themes and the challenges the group
s in vulnerable position meet. After this the actors produce a power analysis of their own context and contemplate together the best possible methods for performing advocacy work. The material will include for example videos where different experts from di
fferent UN sectors describe the significance of the cross-cutting themes climate change and equality and the rights of the groups in most vulnerable position in addition to thematic videos where the beneficiaries of the project share their own stories of c
hange. The main beneficiaries of the project are the civic organizations in East Africa (Tanzania Kenya Ruanda Burundi and Uganda) Central Asia (Kazakhstan Tajikistan Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzia) Caucasus (Armenia Georgia and Azerbaijan) and indigenous people 
in project countries and elsewhere.

Sustainable development education for children and the youth ENO Programme Association together with 4H Tanzania will implement a project for improving environmental awareness in the Iringa Njombe Morogoro and Ruvuma areas in Tanzania. The proposed project will raise awareness of sustainable development issues in sc
hools and communities and create a road map for schools to be used around the world for planning and implementing such activities in the communities. The schools are encouraged to adopt the issues in formulating and designing their curricula content to cre
ate a wider understanding of sustainable development. Tanzania is rich in natural resources but the rapid population growth and an increased need for living space and agricultural land as well as industrial activities have contributed to increase the count
ry?s deforestation. Approximately 450 000ha of forest land is deforested in Tanzania annually. Deforestation is one of the contributors to for example climate change soil erosion biodiversity loss and loss of fertility in farms. Tanzania has identified tha
t the lack of human capacity is hindering development. Therefore actions to address the capacity issue as well as understanding of natural resources have been identified crucial. The project aims at educating the children and youth on environmental awarene
ss and sustainable development for them to understand the effects of forests and deforestation to the environment. The overall goal is to raise an environmentally conscious generation which will consider sustainable development issues in their everyday act
ivities automatically whether it is in their personal life or working life. A road map for schools around the world will be designed and published. The road map can be used for introducing sustainable development and environmental issues to the public auth
orities to encourage them in including them in the school curricula and extra-curricula activities. Case studies of successful sustainable development inclusions will also be presented.
