DMDP 2020 – Pilot Market Driven Organic Dairy Production in Indonesia (MDOD) The Indonesian government views the dairy industry as a driver for improvements of the welfare of the large number of low income and small holder farmers, primarily organised in cooperatives. Indonesia is experiencing an increasing consumer demand for organic dairy products, yet there is currently no local organic dairy production. Landbrug & Fødevarer F.m.b.A./SEGES and key commercial partner, Arla, in partnership with Bina Swadaya, seek to pilot a market driven and sustainable organic dairy production, whilst increasing milk productivity and the economic output of the dairy value chain in Indonesia. The interventions are designed to increase the number of decent jobs all along the dairy value chain, and increase revenues at farm, dairy, sale and distribution levels. Farmers converting to organic milk production, will be linked to commercially viable and “green” dairy value chain, increasing their net income post Covid-19.
The Danida Market Development Partnerships programme (DMDP) is designed to support commercially oriented partnerships for sustainable market development in developing countries. In addition to reporting on individually determined outputs and outcomes, all DMDP projects report on five key programme indicators. These five indicators are the same for the whole project portfolio, enabling strategic and programme level monitoring, and aggregation of results.
At the programme level, three key outcomes which are related to three of the five key programme indicators, have been chosen for results reporting: Outcome 1: Increased employment (decent jobs) for women, men and youth. Outcome 2: Increased income opportunities from improved market linkages. Outcome 3: Additional capital raised (investment leverage). The objective will contribute directly to: 1. SDG 8 through increased revenues at farm, dairy and supplier level, as well as creation of better jobs on farms, in cooperatives, in dairies and in support functions, such as milk collection, sales and distribution. 2. SDG 2 through increased productivity in the dairy value chain and sustainable dairy practices that are more resilient to climate fluctuations, will contribute to self-sufficiency within dairy production and promote better nutrition and local food security. 3. SDG 17 through the North-South/private-public-NGO cooperation, which represents a cross-sectorial and cross-geographical partnership to promote long term business relationships, innovation and knowledge-sharing for the benefit of the dairy sector development in Indonesia.

Strategic Sector Cooperation on Sustainable Island Initiative (SII) between Denmark and Indonesia (Environment) The Sustainable Island Initiative is a joint add-on initiative and part of the existing Strategic Sector Cooperation within Energy and Environment in Indonesia. The main partners of the Sustainable Island Initiative is the Danish Environmental Protection Agency, the Danish Energy Agency, Provincial Government of West Nusa Tenggara and Provincial Government of Riau Island. The Sustainable Initiative will assist local authorities in implementing national policies and develop solutions related to solid waste, circular economy and waste-to-energy replicable to other islands. 

A Strategic Sector Cooperation (SSC) is a partnership aiming at improving sector framework conditions in a partner country. The initiative is a flexible and adaptive instrument for exchanging experiences, learning and capacity building, which builds on a consolidated strong relationship and trust between the involved authorities. The commitment to finance the Danish authorities’ participation is sequenced in phases; an inception phase of approximately one year resulting in a project document; followed by phase one, two and –if need be – a phase three during which the cooperation is deepened and developed. All SSC partnerships are supported by a sector advisor at the embassy, who impel progress and stir the partnership in the direction agreed upon.

Annually, the SSC projects deliver a report on project progress and results achieved. Progress on selected outputs are displayed in openaid. The Sustainable Island Initiative aims to support the development of two Indonesian islands towards a green and low carbon pathway through the integration of effective solid waste management and waste-to-energy solutions. The Sustainable Island Initiative will:

-	Improve framework conditions related to sustainable development within waste management and energy; 
-	Operationalize already formulated strategies and targets by providing analyses and recommendations; 
-	Assist the process of implementing the regional policies and plans for waste management and energy; 
-	Move sustainable waste- and energy management past national plans towards actual implementation at a regional level.
DMDP 2019 – Solar cooling for reduced food loss, job and income opportunities among smallholders in Kenya It is estimated that one-third of Kenya’s post-harvest seafood is lost before it can be sold and safely consumed with loss of income for small-scale fishers as a consequence. Two obstacles must be overcome to solve this problem: First, many small-scale fishers are unbanked and do not have access to credit to invest in cold storage equipment. Secondly, only 30% of the Kenyan population have access to reliable electricity. Thus, the Solar for Cooling project, led by the partnership between WWF, X-Solar and WWF Kenya, aims to close the gap between off-grid energy and small-scale fishers’ need for refrigeration solutions. This is done by bringing together partners who can provide energy-efficient, environmentally friendly and tailored solar refrigeration systems.
In close collaboration, these commercial partners will expand the supply chain for off-grid energy and refrigeration in coastal Kenya. By expanding these supply chains, and by maturing the market demand and building capacity of small-scale fishers, the project will help to unleash the economic potential of small-scale fishing. This will contribute to the development objective which is to stimulate sustainable economic growth in selected coastal regions of Kenya. Expected key results include a reduction in post-catch losses and an increased average price for fish with higher revenue for small-scale fishers as result.

Strategic Partnership Agreement between Denmark and WFP 2020-2022 WFP provides an overview of its results in its Annual Performance Report for 2021. Please see this link: https://www.wfp.org/publications/annual-performance-report-2021 In 2020-2022, Denmark supports WFP with DKK 210 million annually, subject to annual Parliamentary approval. The total amount of support for 2020-2022 amounts to DKK 630 million. Annually, DKK 203 million constitutes a non-earmarked multilateral contribution; DKK 7 million is Human Resource Support, providing stand-by  advisers to WFP;  and DKK 3 million annually is provided for Danish Junior Professional Officers.

WFP is UN's largest humanitarian organization. Its mission is to save lives and end hunger. In 2020, WFP distributed food to 114 million people and operated in 88 countries. WFP provided food assistance to 18 level 3 and level 2 crisis in 2020, which makes up 2/3 of WFP’s operational interventions. WFP’s food and nutrition assistance, whether in-kind or in-cash, plays a critical role in situations where food security is directly threatened by extreme loss of assets and livelihoods, where food systems are broken by conflict and where food gaps pose risks for increased malnutrition and mortality. WFP’s food assistance is also a lifeline for populations on the move and for those excluded from traditional social protection systems, including refugees, migrants and internally displaced people.

Climate change creates a greater risk of hunger and breakdown of food systems. WFP works to make vulnerable people more climate resilient and food secure. WFP also works with forecast-based early action, relying on weather and other forecasts to trigger funding for predetermined action ahead of shock before it turns into disaster.

Cash-based transfers make up 37% of WFP’s food assistance, which makes it the humanitarian organization providing most cash-based support. In 2020, WFP received 8.4 billion USD in voluntary contributions from donors. The flexible and predictable funding provided by the Nordic donor countries, is valued by WFP as it strengthens WFP’s ability to initiate operations in acute crisis. Denmark is the 17th biggest donor to WFP and the sixth bi
