Better Business for Children Türkiye In Türkiye, 720,000 children in the age group of 5 to 17 years are engaged in child labour. Significant of these numbers can be linked to the garment and textile supply chain. The biggest challenge in tackling child labour in this sector in Türkiye is the fact that the supply chain is strongly fragmented with many (big) producers outsourcing to smaller factories or homeworkers.Because of the widespread outsourcing and subcontracting this project will first focus on mapping the specific supply chains linked to the participating brands and their risks (project A). This analysis will determine the location(s) of the improvement programme of project B.Project A will result in a clear mapping of the supply chains of minimum one to maximum two suppliers of the participating brands, and a risk assessment indicating the risks in that particular supply chain(s). Based on these results and in agreement and sphere of influence of all participants, the location with the highest risks on the violation of children’s rights will be prioritized for action in project B.In project B the partnership will work on the risks determined in project A through, for example, implementing UNICEF’s Better Business for Children (BB4C) programme in the selected locations, and if needed for their support, include higher tiers.

Quick Scan Development of Agro Hubs in Mekong Delta, Vietnam The government of Vietnam expressed a clear interest in closer cooperation with the Netherlands, particularly in agriculture, water, and logistics. Business development in the Mekong Delta has started up through a dozen Dutch public-private initiatives on agriculture and water.In this Mekong Delta Plan, it is acknowledged that the orientation for the agricultural sector in the delta needs to shift from a supply-driven focus on production towards a demand-driven one on added value via a modern supply chain network adding processing and state-of-the-art fresh logistics. That needs to be done by improving the product-value chain, involving public-private partnerships and introducing market-based mechanisms. Expectedly, this induces a transition from traditional agri-food production to resource-use efficient production and processing of food. In this situation, the Vietnamese government is demanding to enquire about the feasibility of agro hubs, where industrial and commercial production and processing are spatially concentrated and strategically located towards its markets. Therefore, this study will assess the possibilities for developing and implementing so-called agro hubs in the Mekong Delta.

DRR-Team Slovakia 2023 (DRR223SV02) The landfill in Vrakuna Bratislava - with chemical waste of chemical company CHZJD - is close to Žitný ostrov (“Rye Island”), the largest drinking groundwater reservoir in Central Europe. There has been leaking of the landfill for over 30 years, contaminating the soil towards Rye Island. The issue is now more urgent then ever as there is evidence that the contamination plume has spread around 5.5 km of the landfill and permanently threatens the drinking water reservoir.The landfill was in operation from 1966-1979. Waste was dumped initially in the unsaturated zone, however after the completion of the Gabcikovo Water works and power plant in 1992, the groundwater table increased to 6 m below ground level. This meant that a large part of the foot of the landfill came under water and started to leak into and pollute the surrounding groundwater.The DRR-Team has been invited to discuss the pollution problems in Vrakuna District. The projected solution aims to eliminate the environmental pollution to reduce the effects on the health of the population.

Startup Act Burundi Entrepreneurship is an important mechanism to realize increases in aggregate well-being. For entrepreneurship to flourish do young entrepreneurs need to be able to start their companies. However, start-ups are often held back by challenges in the startup ecosystem. This is also the case in Burundi. Among the challenges identified were the heavy tax burden, lack of certification options, formalization burden, access to finance, legal framework, and access to information and infrastructure, like lack of internet. To counter these challenges, to support start-ups and ultimately and to increase well-being, comprehensive improved entrepreneurship policy will be developed. This project focuses on the development of that improved entrepreneurship policy in Burundi. If implemented well, it can create a massive boost to the startup ecosystem and the Burundian economy at large.

Soil Analysis Benefits SoilCares Holding provides soil analysis and fertilization advice with sensor technology. The company has developed a portable soil scanner that analyzes the soil (in the field) and monitors soil fertility. With the right fertilization advice, farmers can sustainably increase their yields. It is an innovative method that makes soil analyses and advice available faster and cheaper, especially for local farmers and growers who do not have the financial means to have their soil tested at more expensive laboratories. The earnings model focuses on the measurements / services that are performed by the local party PlantAfrique and not on the sale of the scanners to the farmers. Soil Cares sells the soil scanners at cost to PlantAfrique and both companies generate income because farmers pay an airtime fee per analysis (SoilCares) and a fee for the services of PlantAfrique.With this demonstration project involving 100 farmers, SoilCares wants to demonstrate that a higher yield can be achieved through specific fertilization, that is to say to the needs of the soil and the crop. During the demonstration, the farmers of PlantAfrique receive a complete service package (seeds, fertilizer recommendations based on their soil, etc). Besides demonstration of the hand scanner, it is also a demonstration of the entire business model. The results will be shared with a broad target group.
