HALO/Humanitarian Mine Action in Afghanistan HALO/Humanitaarinen miinatoiminta Afganistanissa HALO will conduct manual mine clearance in the areas of Afghanistan most seriously affected by mines and Unexploded Remnants of War. During previous years HALO has cleared especially grazing land in Afghanistan. Project outcomes are: 1) Human security in i
mpacted communities is improved by saving lives and preventing injury 2) Stability and economic security in impacted communities is improved through employment of fighting age males as deminers and 3) Strengthened national ownership of mine action is fully
 supported and enhanced. The primary beneficiaries of the project are Nomadic Kuchi people young men and children who are most likely to be hurt or injured on contaminated grazing land. Finland will fund the project with 2.5 million euros during 2017-2020. HALO:n hankkeessa toteuttaan miinanraivausta Afganistanissa alueilla joissa miinojen ja sodan räjähtämättömien jäänteiden (ERW) vaikutukset ovat suurimmat. Viime vuosina HALO on raivannut erityisesti laidunmaita Afganistanissa. Hankkeen tavoitteena 
on 1) inhimillisen turvallisuuden parantuminen pelastamalla ihmishenkiä ja estämällä haavoittumisia 2) vakauden ja taloudellisen turvallisuuden parantuminen nuorten taisteluikäisten miesten työllistymisen kautta sekä 3) Afganistanin kansallisen miin
atoiminnan omistajuuden kehittyminen. Hankkeen pääasialliset hyödynsaajat ovat Kuchi-paimentolaiset nuoret miehet ja lapset jotka ovat haavoittuvaisimmassa asemassa karjan laidunmailla tapahtuvien miinaonnettomuuksien vuoksi.  Suomi tukee hanketta 25 mi
ljoonalla eurolla vuosina 2017-2020.

F.a: Solutions from the Soil, through Agro-ecology and Gender Justice Mozambican NGO JA! promotes the implementation of improved agricultural practices and agro-ecology as a way of ensuring sustainable food production especially in vulnerable communities, and as an agricultural approach to take care of ecological sustainabil
ity and tackle social problems by supporting smallholder agro-ecological agricultural models, which increases community resilience to climate change.#The project is implemented in two geographic areas of Mozambique: In four communities of Mount Mabu forest
 area in Zambezia Province and in Xai-xai, Gaza Province. #The communities in Mount Mabu have traditional land use rights, but have been asking for formalized rights to be guardians and manage the forest as a nationally-recognized community conservation ar
ea. The communities have self-organized themselves into 8 associations of which 4 of them are women's associations. With this project JA! aims at strengthening all associations, especially the women's associations, provide more agro-ecology trainings to co
mmunities, and to work with the community on medicinal plants in Mabu forest.#In Xai-xai, the communities have been affected by Chinese funded Wanbao farming project. However, the communities have been fighting against land grabbing, and have managed to ge
t back their land. Through the project, JA! will support the preparation of small projects and will provide a brief training on accountability and agro ecology. They will also support cross-community exchange with other associations that have more experien
ce in agro-ecology, and will help create a network of peasant agro-ecology. #The project will be also set up a seed bank to the project communities. As part of this project, JA! also intends to create a publication, with voices of women from the ground, fr
om Mabu and from the communities affected by Wanbao but also including other rural and non-rural women across Mozambique. Additionally, JA! will host a strategy meeting to gather academic and NGO women across southern Africa to envision what an African eco
feminist Just Transition looks like. #The project will have more than 2600 direct beneficiaries in five communities.

F.a: Ensuring dignified livelihood opportunities for flower farm workers Ethiopia is the second largest flower exporter in Africa after Kenya. The sunny tropical climate and its varying landscape allows production of a wide variety of flower species throughout the year. Also, availability of water, low costs of production, macr
o-economic stability and government incentives have motivated the move of large flower firms to Ethiopia. Ethiopia lacks a minimum wage and wages paid by the flower sector are very low. National minimum wage would provide a benchmark for negotiations allow
ing trade unions to enhance terms and conditions of employees beyond provided legal minimums. However, trade unions in horticultural sector in Ethiopia have limited capacity to undertake their representative functions. High labour turnover has significant 
influence on levels of unionization in the sector. Inadequate workers’ participation and involvement in decision making and activities of the unions, compounded with fear of job loss, mean that workers cannot influence issues that affect their employment
 life. Flower plantation work is more a female-dominated profession in Ethiopia than most other agricultural work. Female workers’ situation is very fragile with gender-based violence and poor job security. Awareness on gender issues remains low, especia
lly how to identify and deal with gender-based violence. The overall objective of the project is to create dignified livelihood opportunities for flower farm workers in Ethiopia. The purpose of the project is improved terms, conditions and rights for worke
rs. The project is empowering workers in 6 flower farms in Ethiopia with total of almost 20.000 workers as final beneficiaries. Slightly over 77% of these rights-holders are women. The project’s expected outputs are improved relations at workplaces, trad
e unions’ increased capacity, agents for gender equality, enhanced occupational health + safety practices and improved work opportunities for people with disabilities. The project is implemented by Fairtrade Africa in collaboration Confederation of Ethio
pian Trade Union, Ethiopian Centre for Disability and Development and Ethiopian Horticulture Producers’ Exporters Association. http://www.fairtradeafrica.net/
F.a: Food caravan outlet project The project is for selling food stuffs such as tea, soft drinks and warm meals to travellers at Victoria Falls road terminus.  The cooking, preparation and management of the project will be done by the 6 women.  The city council has pledged to allocate a p
lace for the group to run their project. It will be situated in an area where there are a number of tourist resorts, travellers and also where local people do their day to day business. This will ensure that there are enough customers. The group intends to
 procure a shell bus to be used as a shop, registering the bus, purchase of utensils, (pots, plates, spoons, stoves), furniture and to also revive their chicken project. The chicken project items which were purchased during the previous project are still t
here but they will only need to purchase chickens and chicken feed. The chickens will be used in the restaurant.

FLC: ZELA / Advancing respect for human rights in mining communities in Zimbabwe through enhancing capacity of Zimbabwe Human Rights Commission The project aims to strengthen the capacity of the Zimbabwe Human Rights Commission (ZHRC) to handle complaints of environmental socio-economic and cultural rights violations in mining communities as a way of promoting democracy and human rights. Research 
has shown that human rights commissions in most African countries narrowly focus on civil and political rights at the expense of grave environmental socio-economic and cultural human rights violations that are a daily occurrence in mining communities usual
ly located in remote areas. It is therefore important to raise the profile of environmental socio-economic and cultural rights violations and how they can either undermine or promote democracy and human rights. This would ensure that these rights are on th
e agenda of the ZHRC at an opportune time when it is jump-starting its operations and setting up its complaints handling mechanism.  ZELA will use a two-pronged approach in this project. Whilst working with the ZHRC to strengthen its work within the framew
ork of the Paris Principles and the United Nations Guiding Principles (UNGPs) on Business and Human Rights ZELA will also work with mining communities raising their awareness on how mining activities violate human rights and how to document and report viol
ations. This will ensure that there is a balance in terms of giving impetus to demand side aspects of claiming human rights by the right holders and the supply side of protecting human rights and providing remedial actions by the duty bearers. The project 
will create platforms for constructive dialogue and engagement between mining communities mining companies and ZHRC. Research on human rights related mining impacts will buttress the project as this will ensure that the project is grounded in reality. The 
budget for the 3-year intervention is 250000 Euros. The project locations are Shurugwi and Zvishavane. Direct beneficiaries are the 840 community members who will participate in ZHRC outreach meetings and the 1050 community members who will get a chance to
 report cases of violations of environmental socio-economic and cultural rights to the ZHRC.

Inproving food security and sanitation in Mali prefecture the republic of Guinea Ruokaturvan ja sanitaation parantaminen Malin hallintoalueella Guinean tasavallassa The project will be implemented in partnership with SOS CV Finland and SOS CV Gambia, who have been working together since 2014. SOS Gambia's is an extremely respected national CSO with 33 years’ experience working with the most vulnerable children/youth
 and strengthening local communities. SOS Finland has over 50 years’ experience in child protection and over ten years’ experience of development co-operation in Africa. The main partners at a local level are regional authorities, local schools, vocati
onal centres, youth clubs and other stakeholders in Lower River Region, Central River Region and Upper River Region. The direct beneficiaries will be youth from SOS alternative care and family strengthening programs as well as school dropouts and unemploye
d youth from the wider communities. Jatkohanke tähtää köyhyyden vaikutusten minimoimiseen parantamalla Pohjois-Guineassa sijaitsevan Malin prefektuurin alueen asukkaiden hyvinvointia paremman ruokaturvan hygienian ja ilmastonmuutosta torjuvien toimenpiteiden kautta. Hyödynsaajina ovat e
rityisesti 33 kylän naiset ja lapset. Hankkeen tavoitteena on parantaa alueen väestön ruokaturvaa ja ravitsemustasoa sopivien ruokakasvien viljelyn kautta hillitä ilmastonmuutosta sitomalla hiiltä kasvaviin puuvartisiin kasveihin sekä edistää hyöd
ynsaajien hygieniaa. Palkokasvien mukaan lukien kyyhkyherneen (Cajanus cajan) käyttöä viljelyä sadonkorjuumenetelmiä tullaan edistämään. Monipuolisemmasta ruokavaliosta annetaan neuvontaa. Jatkohankkeessa keskitytään erityisesti ruoka-aineiden ta
saiseen jakautumiseen eri vuodenaikoina ja kehitetään varastointimenetelmiä. Ruokavalion kehittymistä monipuolisemmaksi seurataan säännöllisellä seurannalla. Kasvullisesti lisättävien aitakasvien erityisesti rusotuonenpuun (Gliricidia sepium) lis
ääntyneellä käytöllä vähennetään karjan viljelyksille aiheuttamia vahinkoja. Samalla tuotetaan polttopuuta sekä karjalle rehua kuivakaudeksi. Kahden kylän esimerkkiviljelmiä päästään ensi kerran hyödyntämään vuodenvaihteessa 2018-2019. 
Lisäksi tullaan edistämään alueella toistaiseksi vähän viljellyn mutta arabiankahvia huomattavasti paremmin menestyvän liberiankahvin tuotantoa sekä jatketaan hedelmäpuiden erityisesti avokadon kasvatuksen edistämistä. Alueen asukkaille annetaan
 sanitaatio- hygienia- ja terveyskoulutusta. Koulutusten tavoitteena on lisätä asukkaisen tietotasoa ulosteperäisten sairausten ehkäisemisestä. Vuonna 2018 rakennettujen esimerkkikuivakäymälöiden käyttöä ja toimivuutta seurataan tarkoin niiden a
vulla hyödynsaajia koulutetaan ekologisesta sanitaatiosta ja saatu tieto dokumentoidaan. Tietoa käytetään hygieniakoulutuksissa sekä rekisteröidään nettipohjaiseen tietopankkiin. Käymälöistä saadulle lannoitteelle (virtsa kompostimulta) tehdä

F.a: Empowerment of refugees with adult education Ethiopia is a significant country of destination and transit for refugees, asylum seekers and others persons of concern fleeing persecutions and insecurity in their country of origin. Ethiopia, with Uganda, is hosting the largest number of registered refug
ee population in Africa. The project will target both South Sudanese refugees and host communities living in the areas surrounding the camps. South Sudanese refugees have been placed in Gambella Region, located in the South West of the country and borderin
g South Sudan, against a local population totalling some 310,000 people, of whom approximately 45% are Nuer and 22% Anuak, Gambella hosts more than 350,000 South Sudanese refugees, most of them Nuer, placed in 7 camps. Literacy level is exceptionally low a
mong the South Sudanese, the average literacy rate being 27% (female literacy rate is 16%, and male 40%). This is reflected in UNHCR data from the camps in Gambella, according to which more than 70% of the whole South Sudanese refugee population is uneduca
ted. Similarly, illiteracy is very high also among the local population in Gambela, reaching 54% in the population of 15  60 year olds (40% among males and 66% females). Since the majority of the population in Gambella is Nuer as South Sudanese refugees, F
RC intervention on functional literacy will target equally refugees and host communities. The objective of the project is that through an inclusive approach, refugees and host communities in Ethiopia have enhanced their capacity to anticipate, manage, and 
recover from shocks (resilience) and their mutual relationship (social cohesion) has improved. The outcome of the project is that adult South Sudanese refugees in camps and host communities living nearby are empowered by the acquisition of functional liter
acy and life skills. The project is implemented by the Finnish Refugee Council in close coordination with other actors in the refugee camps and refugee hosting areas.
