F.a: More Fire! -Strenghtening Barefeet Children's councils 52 per cent of Zambian population is under 18 years old. Almost half of Zambian youth lives in urban areas, which makes their role extremely important in Zambian economic and other national development. In the same time a big share of children and youth ar
e orphans after their parents dying of AIDS. These orphan children are poor and vulnerable to preventable diseases and exploitation. These are reasons that have forced children to live and work in streets. The Zambian implementing agency Barefeet Theatre w
orks with these street children and youth to empower them and give them self-confidence to improve their own lives. In practice their method is based on theatre, acrobatics and other performing arts. Barefeet has established youth local councils to organis
e youth and give an established base for them to co-operate and support each other, improve their own lives and to influence local decision makers.  The youth council activities are established in Lusaka, and the method will be spread to Kaoma and Livingst
one. Youth organised in children’s councils perform as role models to others and give an example that life as a street kid is not the only possible option. The project also raises awareness among general public about the situation and living conditions o
f children living on streets. barefeettheatre.org

F.a: Development of small producer organizations in Honduras Climate change threatens coffee production in Central America as the temperature rise and rainfall fluctuation endanger the whole industry in many areas. In addition the rust disease has seriously hit the whole region. The damage caused the disease vary gr
eatly depending on the farm's microclimate, condition and treatment of coffee bushes. At the country level the production decreased by 17 percent in Honduras due to the rust disease. During the project’s planning phase in 2014, the coffee producers ident
ified as their major problems - in addition to climate change and the rust disease - producer organizations’ weak administrative capacity, low productivity, lack of sales skills, as well as the shortage of working capital. The goal of the project in Hond
uras is to improve livelihood of small-scale coffee producers. The project’s purpose is to develop the country's coffee producer organizations to be more efficient and productive. The project will develop the administrative capacity of cooperatives by re
viewing cooperative-specific development plans and administrational instructions, and by supporting production and implementation of youth and gender strategies. Productivity and quality of coffee will be improved by renewing coffee plants, training on qua
lity management, improving tasting laboratories, producing organic fertilizers, and training farmers at the demonstration plots. Sales capacities will be strengthened by participating in trade fairs and developing websites. Dissemination of good experience
, either with banks or buyers, will be supported to facilitate access to finance. 13 weakest coffee producer cooperatives of total of 24 Fairtrade coffee cooperatives in Honduras were selected to take part in the project. Direct beneficiaries of the projec
t are 2,750 producers, of which 600 are women. About 20 percent of these producers belong to the Mayan origin indigenous people lencas. Indirect beneficiaries of the project are approximately 3.000 seasonal workers involved in picking and processing of cof
fee. Implementing partner organization is the Honduran network of small Fairtrade producers, Coordinadora Hondureña de Pequeños Productores certificados por Comercio Justo (CHPP). http://www.comerciojustohonduras.org/
