Activity under preparation GiZ Contribution Agreement for Nexus Energy Water in Zambia Contract related to: GiZ Contribution Agreement for Nexus Energy Water in Zambia - The underlying principle of the Global Gateway NEWZA, through a TEAM EUROPE approach, is to ensure a decisive improvement of the energy-water supply situation in Zambia by increasing the operational and financial performance of five water utilities, agreed upon with the Government of Zambia and EU Member States currently supporting the water sector in Zambia. The action will cover Eastern, Southern, Central, Copperbelt, Northern and Muchinga provinces (one of the five water utilities caters for two provinces). NEWZA also brings support to the 2030 Agenda and Sustainable Development Goals (5, 6, 7, 10, 11 and 13), the Addis Ababa Action Agenda, the new European Consensus on Development, the Global Gateway Strategy and the Gender Action Plan III.Enhancing access to energy and water and improving service delivery requires not only to rehabilitate, expand and digitalize existing water supply systems but also to establish new stand-alone water supply systems for local communities, particularly those living in vulnerable situations including women, children and youth. Improving these elements, as well as increasing the resilience of local communities and the capacities and skills of water utilities management, are the four NEWZA¿s intervention areas, using Human Rights based and gender transformative approaches:1.Create reliable and cost-effective urban water supply through reducing non-revenue water, improved digitization and introducing renewable energy as well as energy efficiency components.2.Increase adequate access to water supply in low-income peri-urban and rural areas, especially for vulnerable groups including women and girls in all their diversity, through the introduction of renewable energy components3.Increase access to basic sanitation and hygiene and to improve institutional WASH in low income urban, peri-urban and rural areas in close coordination with the CUs especially for vulnerable groups including women and girls.4. Enhance&nbsp;organizational, networking and financial capacities of water utilities and national institutions to supply urban, peri-urban and rural water and sanitation services in a cost-effective, transparent, and inclusive mannerThe Action has been designed in close collaboration with the Government and it has inspired and contributed to the draft of the Joint European Strategy with EU Member States in Zambia. It builds upon successful ongoing programmes on access to energy and water, funded by the EU under the 11th EDF, EU member States as Germany (KfW and GIZ) or France, UNICEF and/or EIB current interventions.

Consolidating Gains for Improved Mining and Petroleum Governance in Ghana This project seeks to promote accountability through citizen activism. More specifically, there would be several major activities. Firstly, there would be a conduct of a training for local level legislators (sub -committee members ) on petroleum governance looking at various laws; community rights and engagement; environment; local content and gender issues. Others would focus on women empowerment and gender training targeting only women and would centre on equipping them with knowledge and experiences of industry players. Learning and exchange sessions would be held for Community Environmental Monitoring and Advocacy Groups (CEMAGs), partners and academia for networking and advocacy purposes. To consolidate Oxfam's efforts around value -for -money, efforts would also be seen around open contracting, advocacy around extractive resource revenue management. To connect local -to -national advocacy to regional work, the project would facilitate the conduct of inter -Civil Society Organisation (CSO) and private -sector exchanges, sharing and research work. The overall aim is to promote dialogue; ensure government answers to citizen's needs and rights to resource revenues as well as to national commitments to regional and international commitments. To follow up on election campaign promises by government in 2016, the Extractive Industriies (EI) programme seeks to initiate interventions that would engage government through the youth to ask the right questions about the status of implementation of public commitments including the passage of laws on anti -corruption and mineral revenue management. Central to this project would be to further the agenda on livelihoods through the ‘year of agric' initiative that seek to highlight and protect women and youth livelihoods particularly in host mining communities. The ultimate aim is to set an agenda of citizen activism and involvement of women in shaping extractive sector decisions; ensure revenues from minerals are more effectively deploy
Civic Activism for Economic and Social Justice in Ghana This initiative is aimed at rekindling the civic spirit for citizens' activism in combating fiscal injustice and will be based on sound analyses of the tax regime in Ghana. It will make extensive use of new media and other technological tools to mobilize the youth in particular to pursue accountability for public resources. Women and youth constitute a larger proportion of economic actors in the rather very large informal sector of the Ghanaian economy and will thus be key targets to lead the peer learning and knowledge transfer for fiscal justice under this initiative. . They will be given a voice, and in collaboration with expert Non Governmental Organisation's (NGO's) and think tanks and other stakeholders, come up with concrete suggestions for implementation of transparency and anti -corruption legislation in the oil and gas sector – to encourage the government to adopt improved policies. In continuing the quest for greater accountability for public expenditure in Ghana, Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) continue to focus on the significant reforms that have cumulatively improved public finance management over the last year, ensuring their effective and transparent implementation. Over the course of the program, accountability and transparency will be sustained by continually reviewing hard won reforms and maintaining a dialogue that involves CSOs and provides a continual loop for government's activities to be monitored by relevant stakeholders at local and national levels. Oxfam will strengthen CSOs and civil society (broadening existing partnerships to include women led organisations and those with mandates to increase the participation of youth) advocates for better management of public finances, particularly through increased and more effective domestic revenue mobilization while continuing to encourage equitable redistribution of public resources. Weaknesses in Ghana's tax administration will be pointed out by CSO led initiatives with clear policy suggestio
Empowering Women, Girls, Boys and Men towards ending Gender Based Violence This project will strengthen Civil Society Organisations' (CSOs') institutional, technical and financial capacities so that they will be able to influence state and non -state actors to formulate and implement policies and services (including legal support, health, creation and expansion of safe spaces and holistic, gender -responsive access to justice) for survivors of Gender Based Violence (GBV). In addition, this project will target discriminatory social and gender norms that contribute to harmful attitudes and practices to prevent violence against women and girls by mobilising communities and influencing national and local stakeholders, including working with men and boys, through advocacy, and research and evidence -based campaigning and media.
FAIR4ALL Agric and Mining Value Chains in Ghana This project is a continuation of GHAB22 and the project seeks to train and sensitise relevant stakeholders on the laws and policies on citizen's rights in the extractives and agriculture value chains; undertake research as relates to sustainable business value chains; produce and disseminate educational materials on policies and laws on corporate social responsibility; facilitate multi -stakeholder dialogues and alliances etc. It will also formulate policy proposals and advocate for the domestication of international norms and standards on rights protection and anti -corruption in the fiscal space and sustainable business chains in the cocoa and extractives sectors.

Mobilising Citizens to Advocate for Natural Resource and Fiscal Justice in Ghana The project will enhance citizens and Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) oversight and leadership on inclusive petroleum revenue and environmental management in the quest to manage inequalities within the sector. It will draw from our experiences on similar projects implemented under the Oil for development programme which gained some successes.  First, a system developed to monitor the performance of some selected oil companies, particularly in their commitment to gender and local content issues.  Further, the monitoring system designed, dubbed ‘'Nortrack'' would be used as a basis to stimulate public interest and discussions in the media, radio and television. This is aimed at engaging the public on the results of the tracking and get them involved in discussions to influence companies' policy and practice. To bring communities' perspective to our value for money audits, audio -visual evidence would be produced from communities housing oil funded projects on their views and concerns as beneficiaries of oil -funded projects, collated and used to engage with policy makers for practice change. This aims to enhance the involvement of community people, especially women, youth and other marginalised groups by project executors at project design stage to meet the needs of communities as beneficiaries. Again, from our efforts on social accountability at the subnational level, we would draw from successes and lessons from our ‘'Shama Model'' to design a tool with which the Government would be engaged for possible adoption as an accountability system at the local government (District) level.  Additionally, in our efforts to influence policy in the extractive sector, the project seeks to leverage on existing powers bestowed on traditional authorities in Ghana. By this, traditional women leaders from oil extraction areas shall engage the state on discussions on application of resources from petroleum and the ways the impacts in host communities can be mitigated, especially on c

The advocacy approaches used advance the debate on the one time premium payment, by demonstrating to those who question the financial feasibility the options and benefits such a change will bring.  The project will also build the relationship with national NGO's, with the aim to develop longer term projects together.
