Improving sexual and reproductive health of the Shipibos phase II This project is a continuation of the ongoing project ?Sexual and reproductive health project of the Shipibos? which takes place in Masisea near Pucallpa in four Shipibo villages in Ucayali region in Peru during 2012-2014.Among the Shipibo indigenous commu
nities in the Peruvian jungle there is a lack of understanding about sexual and reproductive health (SRH) leading to sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and unwanted pregnancies. These communities have little access to SRH services and no information of
 their legal rights to have these services provided by the Peruvian government.The direct objective of the project is to improve the sexual and reproductive health of the Shipibo population in an culturally appropriate way.In this continuation project (the
 second phase) the communities will have a more active role in developing public policies advocacy and oversight at the local and regional levels. The delivery of mobile healthcare and educational services created in the first phase (known as the mobile he
alth care model) will be strengthened and an intercultural care protocol developed for replication in other parts of the country. Local and regional authorities will improve their capacity to design culturally relevant health policies. Parallel to these pr
oposed activities mobile SRH service visits will continue in the four project communities
Fire-fighting equipment The developments with fire incidents in Vietnam have worsened considerably. With the rapidly increasing economic activity and urbanisation it is estimated that the risk of fire is also rapidly increasing. The Government has assigned the Ministry of Public 
Security to unify State administration on fire control throughout the country. Special attention is paid to building up forces and equipping necessary vehicles and working out an investment policy for fire control. By 2010 166 new firefighter teams should 
be established. The aim of the project is to finance rescue vehicles and training

Frame agreement with NGO (Fida Int.) The aim of the programme is the partners' improved project management and community development by quality project execution. his is an ongoing project that was developed in order to help increase Fida International development programme's impact among its
 existing local partners. Due to programme's increased invitations by partner organisations to have training on Community Health Education (CHE), Financial and Project Management and Thematic issues, the nature of programme has changed to contain more wide
 topics and audience, hence there is a need to define the program with wider concept. The Community Development + Capacity Building Programme will be used as training platform for its components during the planning and implementing phase. This project has 
four main components in India. The components would be empowered with tools and knowhow to see about the establishment of community training approach and skills, Financial Management and Thematic Training. The local components and Fida International both e
xpressed the need for capacity building of components, which will help to increase components knowledge, tools and knowhow. Our aim is to see the successful implementation of capacity building of components, which will directly improve the impact of the co
mponents in the communities. The impact is expected to cover all the components of Fida funded development cooperation projects, and even beyond. The partners as organisations will be benefited by increased quality and quantity in their social work. That i
s lifting partners' reputation in the civil society. The legal status of the partners will increase and become stronger which will help them in the self-funding process. The partners as a whole will improve their financial management as a result it will he

Family Strengthening Programme The programme's long-term development goal is the realisation of child rights. The overall objective of the programme is to enable children who are orphans or at the risk of loosing parental care to grow and develop within their natural family environment.
 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 providers.  Focusing on vulnerable children re
duces inequality.  Nutrition health education and employment play a key role. The programme emphasizes women's employment opportunities and girl child education.The objectives are attained by programme specific activities. The chosen activities will depend
 on the needs identified in the family development plan (FDP) of each participating family. There are three types of activities: 1) Direct essential services to support the child's right to survival protection development and participation. 2) Capacity bui
lding of caregivers and the community by training and sensitization  so that they are capable and able to protect and care for their children. 3) Advocacy actions aim to improve the overall framework conditions for the children of our target group. At full
 potential the programme will reach an estimated 1120 children and youth as well as 212 caregivers.

IDA-17 (The Seventeenth Replenishment of the International Development Association IDA) The evolving development landscape is characterized by increased foreign direct investment (FDI) and other private flows strong growth in low- (LIC) and middle-income (MIC) countries and new patterns of trade investment and knowledge exchange among develop
ing countries.  These trends along with improved economic policies and favorable primary commodity prices contributed to notable advancements by many IDA countries in poverty reduction and other MDGs in the past decade.  A continuation of these trends woul
d also point to a pathway beyond aid dependency for LICs through increased scope to leverage global finance and knowledge for development and a historic opportunity for IDA countries to shift their development trajectories towards ending extreme poverty wi
thin a generation. Against this backdrop the new World Bank Group  strategy sets out ambitious goals to reduce extreme poverty to 3 percent by 2030 and to promote shared prosperity in a sustainable manner.  To deliver on this agenda the WBG will align its 
activities and resources to these goals, support clients in delivering development ?solutions? by advancing knowledge of what works, and work as a ?One WBG? by leveraging the strengths of each agency (IBRD IDA IFC and MIGA).  IDA will be the main instrumen
t for pursuing the WBG goals in the world?s poorest countries ? home to roughly one billion people living on less than US$1.25 per day (about 80 percent of the world?s poor).  Deliberate action will be required to sustain economic growth and make it more i
nclusive across and within IDA countries as well as to address an evolving range of development challenges including fragility gender equality climate change and disaster risks.  In the face of complex challenges and constrained aid budgets these ambitious
 goals also demand making the best use of scarce resources and enhancing collaboration with development partners. In this context Participants noted that the IDA17 period which spans the target date for the MDGs and the launch of the post-2015 agenda prese
nts a unique opportunity to harness the benefits of the changing global economy address evolving risks to secure the gains that have been achieved and accelerate inclusive and sustainable development. They highlighted IDA?s critical role in supporting conc
erted and accelerated action and called for an ambitious IDA17 Replenishment to maximize development impact to meet the WBG goals in IDA countries

Promotion of development awareness Support for communications projects and global education carried out by civil society organisations
Frame Agreement with NGO (Finn Church Aid) The majority of the rural population in target districts is involved in subsistence agriculture. The level of food security and awareness of improved agricultural production techniques and practices is relatively low. Farmers haven?t been able to break out
 of subsistence farming practices (use of traditional techniques and varieties of crops) and consequently productivity is low. The objective of the project is to empower communities with the knowledge and skills to take the lead in addressing the challengi
ng in their development process and promote higher level of food security of subsistence farmers and communities through development of upland and swamp agriculture (food and cash crops, poultry).The expected results are: 1) Community Village Development C
ommittees? (VDC) leadership is functional and responsive in addressing development issues and communities have increased knowledge and awareness of peace building, HIV/AIDS and gender equality and, 2) Food security has improved, 3) communities perceive far
ming as a business and practice environmental conservation + management.  The project activities include building up the capacity of community structures (Village Development Committees, VDCs) in target communities to the point of taking the lead in their 
own development. VDC are sensitised and trained for example in participatory rural appraisal techniques, gender equality and conflict sensitivity. Subsistence farmers are trained and supervised in new commercial level agro-techniques and practices and envi
ronmental conservation techniques, and provided with farming inputs. PICEP?s poultry far and Agricultural Demonstration Site is further developed in order to ensure sustainability of the organisation in supporting communities.Rights-holders /beneficiaries:
 Rural poor including the most vulnerable in marginalised communities, members of Village Development CommitteesImplementing partner:  Partners in Integrated Community Empowerment Projects (PICEP)
Frame Agreement with NGO (Finn Church Aid) The project aims at increasing the autonomy of women in the rural communities in Macaya through strengthening their economic opportunities and participation in decision-making. This kind of empowerment requires building women?s basic capacities such as lit
eracy, organisational and leadership skills as well as their awareness on human rights, particularly women?s rights and sexual and reproductive rights. Simultaneously, their economic and livelihoods skills are strengthened, in order to both increase their 
revenues and strengthen the valorisation of their work and role in the communities. 1. Women have the capacity to effectively participate in decision making ? Functional literacy and consciousness-raising ? Strengthening the social dynamics and female lead
ership (community development, networking, cohesion, identifying new initiatives) ? Advocacy on women?s rights ? Awareness-raising in reproductive health, Human Rights, Gender and citizenship 2. Women?s entrepreneurial initiatives contribute to their full 
empowerment? Development of entrepreneurial initiatives ? Skills training ? Support and capacity building to women's groups engaged in entrepreneurial activities ? Training and awareness-raising on environmental protection and rational use of natural resou
rces? Training of project staff Rights-holders /beneficiaries: The female population in the intervention area is roughly 1 800. Most of the women in the project area have no basic education and are illiterate. Their vulnerability and poverty is linked to n
ot having access to resources and basic services (education, health, food, justice etc.). They undertake small trade activities (selling matches, sweets, etc.), and production and sales of agricultural products (garden produce and spices). Implementing par
tner: Lutheran World Federation/Department of World Service (LWF/DWS) Haiti.

Frame agreement with NGO (Siemenpuu) Mother Nature organization, a volunteer movement made up of local indigenous communities, youth activists, and members of civil society, has been successfully opposing the proposed Areng hydroelectric dam, which would seriously damage the unique biodiversi
ty of the Central Cardamom Protected Forest in Koh Kong province, and seriously infringe on the human rights of local indigenous communities. With the strong relationship with members of the local communities and other activist groups, effective one-step-a
head-approach, and through the use of a savvy media campaign, Mother Nature has been able to delay the process and make the Areng Valley a talking point. During this project, Mother Nature will continue taking advantage of its rapport with influential comm
unity members to ensure that the communities at large are fully informed of what their rights are, and feel empowered enough (with the necessary tools, contacts and strategies) to publicly oppose the project. Also, Mother Nature will increase its media cam
paign to highlight the massive inconsistencies with the dam, pointing at not just the usual human rights violations and the massive ecological footprint, but also highlighting the fact that it has been classed as ?uneconomical? by two large dam builders. T
his will be done through the use of a newly created network, which will concentrate its efforts in punctual, public, and innovative activities / campaigns. Mother Nature organization was created in February 2013 in the village of Ta Tay Leu, Koh Kong provi
nce, which was seeing massive deforestation of its ancient sacred spirit forests. Mother Nature has successfully campaigned agaist illegal logging, and has built a broad-based movement to stop the proposed Chhay Areng dam, as it would severely damage the u
nique biodiversity of the area and seriously infringe on the human rights of local indigenous communities. The goals of Mother Nature are: 1) To prevent the proposed Chhay Areng hydroelectric dam, or any other-large scale development projects, from being a
pproved inside the Central Cardamom Protected Forest (CCPF), 2) Protect, reinforce, and promote the unique culture, traditions, and livelihoods of the Cardamom Mountain's remaining forest-dependant indigenous communities, 3) Lobby the Cambodian government 
to declare the whole of the CCPF area a UNESCO World Heritage Site, 4) Increase international pressure on protecting the forest area by leveraging national and international civil society networks
Adaptation Fund Adaptation Fund (AF) is a new innovative financing instrument for Adaptation. The decision to operationalise AF was made at Bali Climate Change COP in December 2007. The Adaptation Fund was established to finance concrete adaptation projects and programmes
 in developing countries that are parties to the Kyoto Protocol and are particularly vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change. Financing for the Adaptation Fund comes mainly from sales of certified emission reductions (CER).  The share of procee
ds amounts to 2 per cent of the value of CERs issued each year for Clean Development Mechanism projects. The fund also receives contributions from governments the private sector and individuals.The Adaptation Fund is supervised and managed by the Adaptatio
n Fund Board the Global Environment Facility serves as the secretariat and the World Bank as the interim trustee. Implementing entities are the national (NIE) regional (RIE) and multilateral (MIE) institutions accredited by the Adaptation Fund Board to rec
eive direct financial transfers from the Fund in order to carry out adaptation projects and programmes.Finland provided 100 000 euros in 2008 as a start-up support of which a pro-rata share was later transferred to the main trust fund. As the the CER monet
ization has not provided sufficient amount of income donors decided in Warsaw (COP19) to make contributions to the fund Finland among them. The proposed 5 million euros is coming from the revenues from the EU?s emission trade scheme.
