F.a: Enhancing Learning in Ethnic Communities Togteher ELECT In the Phongsaly Province in North-Eastern Laos the children of ethnic minorities to whom most of the people belong do not learn to read write because the teaching in the local schools is given in a language (lao) that the children dont understand. The lea
rning materials are culturally not relevant, which makes learning even more difficult. Most of the parents are illiterate themselves and have little access to information or skills that could improve their ability to have their rights to health, hygiene, f
ood security and decision making respected by their community leaders or local authorities .The project helps the local teachers and education authorities to understand the importance to provide mother-tongue pre-education to the children, parallel to usin
g the Lao language in teaching. Teaching materials are developed to reflect the local cultural understanding and knowledge, and the teachers are trained in using more child-friendly teaching methods. The culture of the ethnic minority, such as poems, games
 and songs, are collected and used in making the teaching materials. The life skills are discussed both with the young people and the adults, making them better prepared for the changing world around them. The health of the expecting mothers and the new-bo
rns is improving, as the local traditional birth-attendants and the village health volunteered get better informed of the importance of the ante-natal health and birth-preparedness, and of the hygiene and good birthing practices, including the diet of the 
mother and the child. Also the number of women going to health clinics in close-by towns is increasing. Perhaps the most important change that the project aims to make is in the attitudes of the local duty-bearers, i.e. the village decision makers and the 
local government authorities. Advocacy and training to the duty-bearers is essential for them to change their attitude from dictating orders to providing public services to the rights-holders. Ultimately, together with the increasing understanding of their
 rights by the people in the project villages, this change in the mentality of the duty-bearers is essential for the sustainability of the project results. The project is implemented by World Renew.

F.a: Biodiversity Convention as a bridge to consensus on forest resources management and securing of the Ogiek Peoples land rights in Mt. Elgon Through the project the Chepkitale Ogiek community's bylaws will be mainstreamed in the local schools' curricula by producing educational material related to them. At the county level, negotiations will take place with the county government on granting the
 community bylaws a legal status. For that purpose, a lawyer will be hired to draft a proposal of the law. At national level, an audit will be made of the extent to which Kenya has implemented the UN Convention on Biological Diversity, in particular its Ar
ticles 8j and 10c. In case they have not been included in the national legislation, an action plan will be drawn up on how communities and experts should be involved in promoting it. At the international level, the Bungoma county government will be invited
 to present its leadership in the recognition of the community bylaws and to encourage other local and national governments to do the same. This project is necessary for the rights of the Chepkitale Ogiek, a marginalized minority, to materialize in order f
or the community to live in its traditional territory in accordance with its cultural heritage and by practicing its traditional forest-dependent livelihoods. Along with the project, the community's commitment to the community bylaws and governance is expe
cted to strengthen. At county level, the government is expected to grant legal status to the community bylaws. At national level, Articles 8j and 10c of the UN Convention on Biological Diversity are expected to serve as a powerful leverage for the rights o
f forest dependent peoples to be recognized. At international level, the Bungoma county government is expected to embrace a leadership role in recognising the community rights and to encourage other local and national governments to do the same. The projec
t beneficiaries include the 5,000 Chepkitale Ogiek community and the Bungoma county government, as its expertise in the application of the biodiversity agreement will grow. Other stakeholders include the Kenya National Government, the National Gender and E
quality Commission as well as the international community interested in monitoring the implementation of the UN Convention on Biological Diversity.
F.a: Shanti: Community health care project The project has four outcomes: facilitate the communities and stakeholders for further improvement of the sanitation situation of the communities (Total Sanitation), institutionalization of the health works particularly maternal and child health. The secon
d outcome is related to improving livelihood status of the marginalized ethnic and minority communities which was started in the CHEP III. The third outcome is to continue facilitating the community organizations formed in the earlier project to enable and
 institutionalize them so that they can sustain the basic development activities in their communities and to realize their fundamental rights. As a fourth outcome, the project will make effort to mainstream key cross cutting issues such as peace, disabilit
y, Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR), gender and social inclusion (GESI). This includes capacity building of the project staff, sensitization of the communities and stakeholders on these issues and incorporating important issues in the project activities.
FLC: CCF/Strengthening of the local professionals on rehabilitation and inclusion of children with hearing impairment 15 counties in Moldova The object of the project is to support to local professionals from Psycho-pedagogical assistance services and schools/kindergartens on rehabilitation and inclusion of children with hearing impairment in 15 counties of the Republic of Moldova. The outputs 
of the project is to ensure the rehabilitation and  equal access to education of 30 children with hearing  impairment; buid capacity of the local 120 professionals from the inclusive education strutures; improve families? knowledge and skills in children?s
 rehabilitation effective participation and inclusion in society of their children. The project is a follow-up project for the project CCF is implementing 2018 - 2019 with the support of FLC instrument. The project builds on the lessons learned from that p
roject: 1. rehabilitation of children with hearing disabilities is a slow process and it needs to be begun early for good results. Hence CCFs goal is that children with hearing disabilities would be directed to the special health services before they reach
 the school age. 2.  Families with child with hearing disabilities often have multiple social problems and often require other kind of support also. CCF is advising families to get the support from local public authorities. 3. Families prefer to act locall
y. In this project CCF team will travel to rehabilitate the children in their own environment (home school or kindergarten) instead of families travelling to CCF for rehabilitation. 4. In order to reach sustainability it is necessary to focus in training t
he staff members of psycho-pedagogical institutions and teaching personnel. CCF on edustuston nykyinen PYM-kumppani ja uusi hanke jatkaa kuulovammaisten lasten inklusiivisen koulutuksen edistämistä. Uusi hanke rakentuu edellisen hankkeen opetuksille ja niinpä tässä hankkeessa painopiste on kunnallisten ja valtakunnallisten ps
yko-pedagogisten palveluiden henkilökunnan ja opetushenkilökunnan kouluttamisessa. Lisäksi järjestö jatkaa kuulovammaisten lasten ja perheiden tukemista kuulolaitteiden käytössä ja puhumisen opettelussa. Moldovan sosiaali- terveys- ja työministeri
ö kutsuu järjestön usein asiantuntijakseen vammaisasioissa minkä lisäksi ministeriön toimintasuunnitelma 2018 ? 2021 on nostanut kuulovammaisten lasten valtavirtakoulutukseen sisällyttämisen yhdeksi tavoitteeksi. Teema on siis hyvin ajankohtainen M
oldovassa ja tämä on CCF:n pitkäjänteisen työn tulosta. Hanke toteutuu noin 15 kunnassa eri puolilla Moldovaa.
F.a: Building and strengthening unions in Mozambique corridors and hubs This project will strengthen the transport sector unions through training, trade union education, recruitment and union collaboration in Mozambique. The project will put focus on road, rail and port sectors and industries.  The privatization and globalizat
ion of transport sector services are advancing and affecting in multiple ways in the road, rail and port industries. Consequently, the service entities are fragmented, their quality is weakened, less labor force is required, more outsourced work appears, u
nion work is hampered and undermined, salaries and working conditions are weakened. Union’s improved capacity to understand, react and advocate on the anti-privatization and on its effects, will be out most important as well as the transport union’s co
llaboration.  The project will increase the awareness of the transport sector workers on basic union and labor rights and will enhance union memberships through training on recruitment skills, campaigning skills, negotiation skills, and through research. T
hrough joint planning and increased union interaction, the union cooperation will strengthen. Communication materials are developed, and the radio and TV will be equipped to maximize the media coverage. Through the research mapping, the main target compani
es will be determined. While the union resources will increase, the collective agreement processes will multiply.  At early stages, the main beneficiaries are the newly trained union activists and leaders. Thus, the unions that are engaged, will also benef
it through increased membership and trainings. As the union capacities and their cooperation will increase, and the collective agreement processes increase, the ultimate beneficiaries will be the transport sector workers and their families. This project is
 executed by International Transport Federation (ITF) and implemented by ITF’s affiliated unions in Mozambique.
Support to the programme of work of the Convention on the Protection and Use of Transboundary Watercourses and International Lakes Tuki UNECE:n rajavesisopimuksen työohjelmalle The Convention on the Protection and Use of Transboundary Watercourses and International Lakes (1992) creates a framework for regional transboundary water cooperation. UNECE Water Convention aims to protect and ensure the quantity quality and sustainable u
se of transboundary water resources by facilitating cooperation. The Convention reduces conflicts and enhances security. It prevents and reduces pollution with transboundary impact. Initially negotiated as a regional instrument it turned into a universally
 available legal framework for transboundary water cooperation following the entry into force of amendments in 2013 opening it to all UN Member States. Tshad's accession to the Convention occurred in February 2018 and several other ODA eligible countries a
re interested in ratifying the Convention. Finland has an active role in global transboundary cooperation. Finland has co-operated with the UNECE Water Convention Secretariat on policy issues and the MFA has also financed UNECE water projects in Central As
ia. Finland (SYKE) is represented in the Water Convention Bureau as well as the most important working groups. The proposed support to the UNECE Water Convention Programme of work for 2019-2021 will be directed to the implementation of the programme of wor
k as a whole. It is proposed that the MFA will support the UNECE Water Convention Programme of work for 2019-2021 with the amount of 200 000 euro in 2019. YK:n alaisen Euroopan talouskomission (UNECE) rajavesisopimus (1992) luo puitteet alueelliselle rajavesistöyhteistyölle. UNECE:n yleissopimus edistää merkittävällä tavalla rajavesistöjen oikeudenmukaista käyttöä suojelua ja yhteistyötä sopimus
puolten kesken. Sopimus vähentää konflikteja lisää turvallisuutta sekä edistää vesivarojen kestävää käyttöä. Sopimus ehkäisee ja vähentää sellaista vesien pilaantumista jonka vaikutukset ulottuvat maasta toiseen. Myös UNECE:n ulkopuolise
t YK-maat voivat liittyä sopimukseen vuonna 2013 voimaan astuneen sopimusmuutoksen ansiosta ja useat ODA-kelpoiset maat ovat kiinnostuneita liittymään sopimukseen. Ensimmäiset UNECE-alueen ulkopuoliset maa Tshad ja Senegal liittyivät sopimukseen 2018.
 Sopimuksella on näin ollen maailmanlaajuista merkitystä rajavesiyhteistyön edistäjänä. Suomi on aktiivinen toimija globaalissa rajavesiyhteistyössä. Suomi on tehnyt pitkään politiikkatason yhteistyötä UNECE:n rajavesisopimuksen sihteeristön k
anssa minkä lisäksi UM on rahoittanut UNECE:n rajavesihankkeita Keski-Aasiassa. Suomi (SYKE) on edustettuna rajavesisopimuksen byroossa sekä keskeisissä työryhmissä. Esitettävä tuki UNECE:n rajavesisopimuksen työohjelmalle 2019-2021 kohdistuu työ
ohjelman toimeenpanoon kokonaisuudessaan.

F.a: Myanmar textile and mining industry working conditions The top of the current economic development of Myanmar consist of textile industry, mining and construction + wood processing; these employ massive amount of people who grew up in dictatorship and know relatively little about their rights. The trade union 
movement of the country has returned from exile a few years ago, and organizing is progressing well, but because the work starts from the basics, the need for support is significant. The aim of the project is to support the industrial unions in Myanmar to 
grow their union density and educate workers on basic trade union issues, so that the unions can in the long run represent the interests of the workers through negotiations and advocacy work. The textile industry grows at the speed of one new factory per w
eek, and Myanmar seems to be the last safe haven for international brands in their race to the bottom. For this reason, the project work links up with IndustriALL’s campaigning and advocacy around the global production chains in textile industry. In the 
mining sector, the biggest problems are in the dangerous nature of the work, as well as the low-income level despite the risks. In both sectors, workers are still far from a decent living wage. Project will be supported jointly by SASK and our Dutch sister
 organization. Additionally, FES of Germany, CFMEU of Australia and a Dutch NGO Fair Wear Foundation contribute to specified components of IndustriALL’s work in Myanmar. The beneficiaries are industry workers, especially those in textile and mining secto
rs. IndustriALL staff coordinates and manages the project together with focal persons and leaderships of the Myanmar unions.
OCHA/Core contribution OCHA/Yleisrahoitus 2019-22 Finland's core funding to OCHA total 10 million euros (annually 25 million euros).  OCHA (Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs) is part of the United Nations Secretariat responsible for bringing together humanitarian actors and co-ordinate a
nd ensure a coherent response to emergencies. More than 90% of its budget is based on voluntary contributions. As indicated in Finland's Humanitarian Policy (2012) Finland emphasized the role of United Nations as the coordinator of humanitarian aid.  The g
uiding principle of Finnish funding is that effective timely and needs-based humanitarian aid can significantly reduce the impact the humanitarian crises and hazards.  Finnish contribution is now decreasing by 1 million euros annually due to cuts in Finlan
d's humanitarian aid. Suomen yleisavustus  YK:n humanitaarisen avun koordinaatioyksikölle OCHA (Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs) vuosina 2019-22 yhteensä 10 miljoonaa euroa (25 miljoonaa euroa vuosittain).  OCHA vastaa kansainvälisen yhteisön ja erityise
sti YK-järjestelmän humanitaarisen avun koordinaatiosta sekä voimavarojen mobilisoinnista luonnonkatastrofi- ja kriisitilanteissa.  Vaikka OCHA on osa YK-sihteeristöä pitkälti yli 90% sen budjetista perustuu vapaaehtoiseen rahoitukseen. Humanitaarise
n avun linjauksen (2012) mukaisesti Suomi korostaa YK:n johtavaa roolia humanitaarisen avun koordinoijana. Suomen rahoituksen lähtökohtana on että tehokkaalla ja oikea-aikaisella tarpeisiin perustuvalla humanitaarisella avulla voidaan merkittävästi li
eventää humanitaaristen kriisien ja katastrofien vaikutuksia. Suomen rahoitus laskee vuositasolla 1 miljoonalla eurolla mikä johtuu Suomen humanitaarisen kokonaisrahoituksen vähentämisestä.
