Support to the Development of Legal and Institutional Frameworks on Access to Genetic Resources and related Benefit Sharing and Traditional Knowledge in line with the CBD and its Nagoya Protocol in Venezuela To improve local capacities for the implementation of access to genetic resources (GRs) and traditional knowledge (TK) regimes in accordance with the Nagoya Protocol Note: Disbursement data provided is cumulative and covers disbursement made by the project Agency. The project is expected to generate a number of socioeconomic benefits. To begin with, the project will promote the conservation and sustainable use of genetic resources, of particular importance to Venezuela as a megadiverse country and center of origin and diversification of native breeds and cultivars. The strengthening of the ABS mechanism will contribute to the development of social inclusion and gender equality, foster clear and transparent provisions and strengthen the capacity for indigenous and local communities to benefit from the use of their traditional knowledge associated with genetic resources, thereby generating opportunities benefit-sharing while reinforcing the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity. The benefits shared will be applied in biodiversity conservation actions and benefits for indigenous peoples and local communities and traditional small farmers, taking into account their organizations and including consideration of gender dimensions. All activities such as awareness creation on ABS, formulation of biocultural protocols, ABS laws and guidelines, and training on PIC and MAT, will be carried out with due consideration of gender equality and social inclusion principles.  Most of the Venezuela´s potential regarding the utilization of its genetic resources is still unknown. Most of its genetic resources probably remain undiscovered, others are yet to be thoroughly studied and large numbers remain under-utilized. Most of the utilization that is taking place at the moment using genetic resources or associated traditional knowledge originated in Venezuela is also unknown for the country. As a megadiverse country Venezuela has considerable untapped wealth which can be generated from sustainable management of its rich genetic resources. The project will seek to change these patterns, by streamlining the current regulations, generating transparent information, strengthening the research capacities of the country, empowering indigenous peoples and local communities to manage their genetic resources and associated traditional knowledge and demonstrating successful benefit sharing utilizing in situ conservation measures. In summary, gaining governance over their genetic resources and associated traditional knowledge as an instrument for the sustainable development of the country.

Conservation and sustainable use of biological diversity in the Caroni river basin of Bolivar state To improve management and governance and enhance institutional and communitiesâ€™ capacities for the integrated and sustainable use of the landscape, the conservation of biological diversity and provision of ecosystem services, to generate socio-economic and environmental benefits in the CaronÃ­ River Basin and global environmental benefits (SDGs 2.4, 6.6, 13.1 and 15.4 Note: Disbursement data provided is cumulative and covers disbursement made by the project Agency. 389.The project will support initiatives aimed at improving livelihoods and the adoption of sustainable production practices with indigenous and criollo communities that generate new supplementary incomes for participants' households, applying best practices to reduce the impact of productive activities on the landscape and biological diversity. The project will promote working with small-scale producers in the project intervention areas, who will receive technical support to enhance their traditional agricultural practices and promote sustainable environmental practices in their various activities. These sustainable practices will optimize resource use and generate environmental benefits without affecting the income of small-scale landowners.  390.In component 3 of the project, the development of activities that promote the management of non-timber forest products and the promotion of sustainable ecotourism will be supported, as an alternative option for economic diversification and improvement of livelihoods. The identification of already existing initiatives, the strengthening of the community's capacities for the management of sustainable ecotourism, and the promotion of links with business opportunities, as well as the start-up of small funds (rural banks) to finance these activities will be present within the framework of the project. These complementary subsistence options with criollo communities and indigenous peoples seek to generate lessons about local production processes and deal with unsustainable emerging development processes, within the framework of coexistence with the ABRAEs of the basin and the conservation of the biological Diversity.  391.As a transversal element, the project within its strategies will include the right of indigenous peoples to free, prior and informed consent FPIC. In a participatory manner, sustainable productive alternatives will be evaluated, based on the production and use with added value of goods and services generated from biological diversity and the promotion of ecotourism, thus contributing to the creation of sustainable economic alternatives and improving the means of life of the communities, to the extent that decent and productive employment opportunities are generated. Special respect and recognition will be given to the different roles that women and men play and how their unique and individual contributions, and through their organizations, can be maximized within the context of project strategy and implementation, as well as the cultural relevance of the interventions.

Delivering maternal health care through mobile biometrics in urban slums in Bangladesh Simprints is a nonprofit tech company committed to improving the lives of the poor. We work with organisations like Doctors without Borders, the World Health Organisation, and MercyCorps to develop the tools their health workers use on the front lines of global health in developing countries. Specifically, we're building a mobile biometric scanner that allows health workers to connect patients with no IDs to their records via fingerprint. We're supported, among others, by the Gates Foundation, USAID, and UKaid. Our work has been recognised by Unicef as the 2015 "Best Tech: Changing Children's Lives for Good" award. Our project UKAD-INN-083 is focused on ‘Delivering maternal health care through mobile biometrics in the urban slums of Bangladesh’. We aim to ensure that maternal health care records are made readily accessible to Community Healthcare workers by using fingerprint & biometric identification technology, creating unique ID records allowing remote, smart technology access to medical records. The project is currently being implemented across four slum areas in Dhaka, Bangladesh. We have designed hardware and software for the worn, scarred fingerprints of the poorest populations that commonly defeat Western-designed biometric systems. With the help of our partners at BRAC and the University of Cambridge, we have tested Simprints with 125,000 fingerprints across Zambia, Benin, Nepal, Uganda, Kenya, and Bangladesh in both urban and rural contexts. We pitted a wide range of sensors, templates, and matching algorithms against the toughest fingerprints we could find to optimise our system in terms of power, speed, ruggedness, and affordability.
