Community-based action against smoking in Chui The current escalation in tobacco use and tobacco-related death and disease can only be reversed by comprehensive tobacco control policies. Like other low-income countries Kyrgyzstan is facing massive challenges in this respect. This project strives to com
bine a public health and health system?s approach in tobacco control by implementing intensified community-based actions in Issuk-Kul Naryn and Talas Oblasts in Kyrgyzstan during the years 2014-2016. The pilot phase of the project in Chui Oblast in 2011-20
13 has provided a model for successful intervention that WHO and Kyrgyz experts recommend to be expanded nationwide. Through activation and training of Village Health Committees (VHC) primary health care teachers and students in schools mass media as well 
as local authorities and politicians the project reach better understanding among adults and children of the health hazards of active and passive smoking increase the number of smokers who make a quit attempt as well as change social norms regarding tobacc
o use. The target group of this project is the whole population of the Kyrgyz Republic equally including both adult men and women as well as boys and girls in the school environment and families. All project material is prodcued both in Kyrgyz and Russian 
language. The Kyrgyz-Finnish project strives to improve the health of the Kyrgyz people by raising awareness on health hazards of tobacco and helping tobacco users to quit. Health is a fundamental human right. The project is environmentally sustainable. Wh
en tobacco use declines there are positive effects on the environment including less environmental burden caused by tobacco farming as well as less waste from used tobacco products in the environment.The project will be conducted under the local leadership

Local Cooperation Fund (LCF) in Kenya The Government of Kenya through the current forest draft policy has recognized the importance of a forestry professional body in the country by ensuring it is well recognized and protected so that members have a free hand in handling professional forestry 
issues. Through the recognition FSK asserts itself as an important institution that champion forestry science and play the role of a watchdog in forestry issues in the country.However for FSK to effectively perform her core mandate and to build on the past
 achievements and manage the challenges external support is required. Currently the society has a membership of over 500 individuals with a number of institutions and organizations as corporate members. FSK has the potential to be a reference point for nat
ional forestry policy debate and decision-making processes. During the project first phase the society achieved much in setting up infrastructure and governance mechanisms to enhance its mandate. The challenge now is to undertake clear and focused strategi
es aimed at changing poor public image of foresters presences of non- professionals/quacks in the forestry sector inadequate forums for collating members views on various forest issues inadequate financial management structure and low membership commitment
 to ideas of the society it is against these issues that justified the society to develop this proposal for support in strengthening the Forest Professional Body to continue advocating for sustainable forest Management and ensure forest science is correctl

Local Cooperation Fund (LCF) in Kenya Hurinet made remarkable progress in its previous project implementation activities ranging from peace building and human rights promotion training workshops which were able to avert electoral violence during parliamentary and presidential elections through
 dialogues involving political parties CSOs students and faith based institutions. Through exchange programme the member organizations were able to get exposure to new practices approaches and methodologies applied in other countries in peace building and 
human rights promotion. The strategic meetings strengthened networks of members through collective agenda setting regarding the discourse on peace human rights and contribution to national reconciliation and transitional justice processes that will soon cu
lminate into national laws and policies.There is increased lack of respect for rule of law witnessed by regular interference by the executive in decision making processes at the expense of other arms of government. Land disputes and utilization of natural 
resources and revenues still persists despite repeated calls for transparency and accountability. Ethnic conflict still continues to be witnessed in Karamoja region due to water and pasture as well as small arms proliferation despite the disarmament exerci
se being undertaken. The above situation creates a future of uncertainty and if not handled well and mitigated the effects will degenerate to the old time where there was massive abuse of human rights and use of violence to resolve conflicts in Uganda. Les
sons learnt from the previuos project reveal the need to build the capacity of CSOs in early warning and conflict trasformation through trainings and development of innovative tools mechanism and structures. However amidst the achievemnets the situation in
 the country seem to be getting back to the post colonial days with increased post election tensions and violence that calls for dialogue among different stakeholder. The project plans to implement a number of activities through three strategic objectives,
 1) to enhance capacity of CSOs and communities to effectively utilize the early warning mechanism for crisis prevention and peaceful conflict resolution,  2) to promote dialogue with government and other relevant stakeholders to support appropriate soluti
ons to emarging threats, 3) to enhance effective collaboration and networking among the civil society organizations and the grassroot communities for sustainable peace.

Improving rehabilitation services for people with spinal cord injury in Western Nepal Spinal cord injury rehabilitation is a major unmet need in Nepal. In Nepal most cases are caused by falls from heights chiefly from trees (from which poor farmers cut fodder for their stock) and building sites. Road traffic accidents are an increasing caus
e of SCI. There are currently only three centres in the whole country offering rehabilitation services to people with spinal cord injuries ? two of the three are in Kathmandu. GPHRC provides services to the Western Development Region and through four INF c
linics to the Mid-Western Development Region - a total population of around 8.5 million people. At present large proportion of SCI patients present for rehabilitation with pressure sores. These patients require admissions up to 6 months as the pressure sor
e needs to heal before rehabilitation can commence. Patients admitted without pressure sores can complete the rehabilitation within 6-8 weeks. The project ?Improving rehabilitation services for people with spinal cord injury in western Nepal? will be imple
mented by International Nepal Fellowship Nepal?s (INF/Nepal) Green Pastures Hospital and Rehabilitation Centre (GPHRC) in collaboration with government and private hospitals in Pokhara Nepal and INF?s Partnership for Rehabilitation (PFR) which supports com
munity-based rehabilitation services in the Western Region of Nepal. This project has three major objectives:1. To reduce the incidence of secondary complications in new cases of spinal cord injury (SCI) by providing health education and essential equipmen
t to patients in primary (trauma) care 2. To provide better quality rehabilitation services to SCI clients through building a appropriately designed 12 bed SCI ward block at GPHRC 3. To reduce the incidence of infections and pressure sores in SCI patients 
after their return home and thereby reduce the rate of re-admission and improve their quality of life
