ACSTF - Strengthening Peace through Civil Society Consolidation and Lobbying Aceh Civil Society Task Force (ACSTF) has been set up to undertake tasks related to the consolidation and empowerment of the civilian components in Aceh. They aim to advocate for sustainable peace through dialogue and non-violent approaches by engaging civilians in Aceh, Indonesia and abroad. 
They are currently taking part in the Aceh Peace Programme through activities linked to lobbying and government monitoring, networking, consolidating civil society responses and helping to strengthen the network of civil society organisations working on peace building in Aceh. 
This work includes their “Parliament Watch” activities where they monitor the discussions taking place in the Aceh parliament and feed information back to civil society; lobbying and networking meetings for decision makers and civil society as a way of bridging the gap and create greater co-operation; analyses of the progress made in implementing the recommendations of the peace agreement for Aceh and the Law on Governing Aceh (LOGA) as well as networking and awareness raising for grassroots civil society organisations.
Emergency response and capacity building in Karo and Dairi CAFOD’s grant enabled the local Caritas organisation in the Archdiocese of Medan to respond usefully to a serious emergency following the eruption of Mt Sinabung in August 2010, by distributing relief assistance to meet the basic needs of 600 families.  The balance of the grant is being used to provide training for 60 key people (government officers, staff of non-governmental agencies and youth leaders) in Karo and Dairi Districts, which are very vulnerable to volcanic eruptions and earthquakes, so they will be better prepared when another next emergency arises.
Phase 1 DEC Indonesia Tsunami Appeal On 28 September 2018, Central Sulawesi Province, Indonesia, was struck by a tsunami triggered by a 7.5 magnitude earthquake. More than 2,100 people are confirmed to have died, with 660 missing, 11,000 injured and over 220,000 people internally displaced in the immediate weeks following the disaster.  Localized areas were decimated when the tsunami wiped away coastal areas and soil liquefaction caused whole neighborhoods to sink into the earth and ground to shift with mudslides.  Besides the permanent displacement caused by the dual tsunami/liquefaction devastation, the earthquake caused widespread structural damage, displacing families temporarily from damaged and unsafe shelters. OCHA estimates 68,000 houses were damaged.   
Phase 1 project will focus on providing conditional cash transfers to enable 300HH from the affected areas to build transitional shelters and latrines.
Helping local communities in West Aceh to reduce their vulnerability to disaster CAFOD supported YPK in past years to establish micro-credit institutions, known as LEMs, in nine villages in West Aceh.   These LEMs made small loans available to local people who were badly affected by the December 2004 Tsunami or by the widespread violence and conflict which prevailed in Aceh in the years leading up to the tsunami disaster.  The loans were to enable them to resume their former livelihoods or else start new businesses.  Since 2010, YPK has been working with the same villages to establish community-based organisations which are then supported to draw up Action Plans for disaster preparedness and adaptation to climate change.  YPK also holds workshops and disaster mapping exercises at district-level, to help the local government link up with the efforts of the grassroots communities and so foster the mainstreaming of disaster risk reduction.  In implementing this project, YPK will meet regularly with SKS, which is doing similar work in North Aceh, to share experiences and learning and start to develop provincial level advocacy initiatives.
Scoping study for a SE Asia regional campaign on the UN's 'sustainable energy for all' initiative Access to modern, sustainable, safe and affordable energy services in developing countries is an essential step to poverty reduction and sustainable development in a time of increasing environmental threats. Globally 1.3 billion people still lack access to any form of electricity and 2.7 billion still cook over open fires. More than 95% of people living in energy poverty are in sub-Saharan Africa or in Asia. 

A renewed political focus on tackling energy poverty is emerging through the post-Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) discussion - energy access is often referred to as the “missing MDG” - and also through UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon’s Sustainable Energy for All Initiative (or SE4All).  This initiative has 3 objectives to be achieved by 2030: ensuring universal energy access; doubling the share of renewables in the global energy mix; and doubling energy efficiency globally. Ban Ki-moon has stated that civil society is central to this initiative, yet there are no clear action plans on how to engage civil society or those living in energy poverty at either international or country level. Civil society organisations are also concerned with the unclear definition of the goals and lack of clarity over delivery, monitoring and accountability frameworks.  

Over the next 12-18 months, SE4All will move into its operational phase in over 60 countries. The focus will shift to the national level engagement, with countries undertaking Gap Analyses of their energy sectors and developing National Action Plans (NAPs) to achieve the SE4All goals. 

CAFOD will support Institute for Essential Services Reform (IESR) to carry out a scoping of the opportunities for civil society organisations in SE Asia to engage with sustainable energy access advocacy, using the SE4All initiative as an entry point. Scoping activities will include awareness raising/policy mapping, advocacy mapping and advocacy strategy development, as well as participation in meetings with other CAFOD partners globally that are working on sustainable energy access for all. 

This scoping study will provide IESR with evidence to develop a regional campaign on SE4All, which will aim to support civil society in SE Asia to influence national energy planning and to assess the role of access to sustainable energy services in delivering national development objectives.
EA 27/2018 Emergency Response and Resilience for Central Sulawesi Earthquake and Tsunami On 28 September 2018, Central Sulawesi Province, Indonesia, was struck by a tsunami triggered by a 7.5 magnitude earthquake. As of 23 October, the BNPB (the Indonesian Local Coordinating Body of Disaster Relief) estimates at least 2,077 people are confirmed to have died, with 1,075 missing, 4,400 with major injuries, and over 211,000 people internally displaced in the immediate weeks following the disaster.  Localized areas were decimated when the tsunami wiped away coastal zones and soil liquefaction caused whole neighbourhoods to sink into the earth and ground to shift with mudslides.  Besides the permanent displacement caused by the tsunami and liquefaction devastation, the earthquake caused widespread structural damage, displacing families temporarily from damaged and unsafe shelters.  BPBD estimates 68,000 houses were damaged.  

The emergency and early recovery response supported by the Emergency Appeal (EA) will be implemented in three districts in Central Sulawesi Province, Indonesia, all located within the Diocese of Manado. KARINA will be providing NFIs, multipurpose cash assistance (MPCA) and technical support to recover or start new livelihoods.
PCC - Supporting Community Planning for Reconstruction & Recovery in Aceh The CAFOD partner People’s Crisis Centre (PCC) is planning to develop a community based early warning system for flood management in four regencies in Aceh (Aceh Besar, North Aceh, East Aceh and West Aceh), which are regularly flooded in river areas. There will be two pilot projects per regency which includes altogether 265 beneficiaries. The majority of these communities have already been involved in the village planning process and are now building on their existing cooperation with officials of the local government. 

PCC is already in the process of analysing people’s vulnerabilities and capacities together with them. Building on the village planning that was conducted by using Participatory Rural Appraisal they are updating and complementing information and will start new processes with communities they haven’t worked with before. After that PCC will establish a working group for disaster preparedness among them and conduct with them an intense training on DRR with resource persons from relevant institutions of the area (Leuser Ecosystem Area Management Office, Sumatra River Area Agency, Institute for Meteorology and Geophysics etc.). Then an early warning system network will be set up and supported by the working group’s advocacy activities. As follow-up PCC will conduct a workshop with the working group and a final seminar will be held with all beneficiaries of the area to disseminate the information on the early warning system. The information will also be disseminated via radio, local newspapers and posters. The system will work self-sufficiently after this project comes to an end. It is further hoped that beneficiaries will share the system with neighbouring communities in river areas so that they can adopt the early warning system too.
LBH's Legal Aid work linked to Civil, Political, Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. LBH is a foundation providing free legal aid to people on a range of topics covering all economic, social, civil and political rights. They have been active in working with land rights issues since the Tsunami, in addition to their regular work.

Forest for Water and Prosperity (India):  USAID will invest $1.0 million in FY 2021 Sustainable Landscapes funds into this mechanism. This technical assistance contract improves management of targeted forest landscapes in India for enhanced ecosystem services and increased inclusive economic opportunities. Forests in India provide an array of benefits, especially for the 300 million people that are dependent on forests for sustenance and livelihoods. Forests also provide a variety of ecosystem goods and services including timber and other wood products, non-timber forest products, clean water and air, climate regulation, soil stabilization, recreation and spiritual values. USAID works in close collaboration with the GOI's Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, local governments and communities to adopt innovations and best practices, and build the capacity of local stakeholders to better manage India's forest resources. Targeted landscapes under the program will have the potential to reduce emissions and increase carbon sequestration, increase water flows and conserve biodiversity. .Funds will be used to accelerate and scale best practices developed under the program. This will include helping Indian state forest departments prepare forest management plans on their own using tools and methodologies developed under the program, scaling up conservation enterprises to provide economic opportunities for forest-dependent people, piloting incentive-based mechanisms for efficient delivery of ecosystem services (particularly water) from forest landscapes. The improved forest management planning will reduce forest degradation and improve the quality of the forests, thereby helping to increase carbon sequestration and reduce greenhouse gas emissions while also enhancing other ecosystem services such as water flows and biodiversity. The funds will also be used for institutionalizing systems within Indian state forest departments for monitoring forest ecosystem services...... .. .
