REG: Social Science Research, Ph. 1 SDC’s systemic analysis highlights the need to institutionalize a culture of knowledge-sharing and community-building as a precondition to become relevant for policy-making and inform reform pro-cesses. SDC shares this view and envisages applying a system-oriented approach to enhance social sciences’ status and contribute to policy relevance. By its nature, strengthening research systems has to be approached at a national level first as strategic planning is primarily a national (and not a regional) agenda. SDC expects this new project to address current national research systems of Albania and Serbia in a first step, with a potential to be extended to Bosnia & Herze-gowina, Kosovo and Macedonia latest in the second phase.

Agriculture and Food Security Knowledge Network The Agriculture and Food Security (A&FS) Network was launched in 2008 and is now well established. By mutually sharing relevant knowledge and expertise the network becomes a major content provider of knowledge to make SDC interventions more effective. The relevance of A&FS for SDC is high: more than 200 projects are currently implemented, with more than CHF 250 million of investment every year. These projects approximately reach 2 to 3 million beneficiaries. In the next five years the network aims at applying more shared expertise by network members, sharpening the thematic profile of the network and connecting all network members.

Confronting and combating gender-based violence in Mongolia Gender-based violence has been on the rise in Mongolia since the turn of the millennium. Yet because of a serious lack of data, the extent of the phenomenon is difficult to assess and a culture of impunity continues to hold sway. The SDC plans to conduct a national survey to address this problem. At the same time, it intends to strengthen institutions, put in place appropriate services and raise public awareness.
Protection of children and youth affected by armed violence and/or natural disasters, in the municipalities of Tierralta and Puerto Libertador The history of Colombia has been strongly affected by the omnipresence of armed conflict and violence. Even with the implementation of the peace agreement with the FARC, armed violence is expected to persist due to the presence of other non-state armed actors, especially in peripheral regions and poor urban areas. Several regions will remain affected by violence and human rights violations (i.e. social control by armed groups, limitation on mobility and access, use and recruitment of minors, sexual gender-based violence, threats, extortions), which requires protection and preventive actions for the affected populations. In addition, in rural and urban areas of Córdoba, the access to safe water and sanitation services is limited due to absence of state actors, which increase the vulnerability of the population.
