F.a: Organising and Strengthening Home Based and Textile Workers in Pakistan During this last project phase the work to strengthen two newly established textile sector federations continues. Federations will capacitate each other through close cooperation, and will maximize the representation power, and will be better able to deman
d effective implementation of the labour laws. Home Based Workers Federation (PHBWF) promotes systematically gender equality important to women within labour movement. In a longer run this work will increase the number of women being selected in leadership
 positions in trade unions. Key activities will be recruitment, merging new unions, training program, research on supply chains and a campaign on social security.The fundamental problem is the weak enforcement of labour laws and lacking respect of worker
’s rights at the work places. To be better able to influence these problems at national level trade unions must seek every opportunity to cooperate closely and unite. This project facilitates the cooperation and unification of two newly established texti
le sector federations through direct recruitment program, by merging new textile unions into the fold of federations, by implementing a training program and a campaign on social security. Work conditions are further improved through establishment of OHS co
mmittees and by training of OHS trainers.This project mobilizes thousands of textile workers in factories and those who are home based, and raise their awareness on labour rights. Direct recruitment activities will grow the memberships of both federations 
by 10000 new members. At least ten independent textile unions will be merged into the federations, bringing some 10000 new members into federation cadres. This will lead to increased negotiation power, and this will enhance at least 3000 workers being able
 to register with social security system, and receive some old age benefits. In Punjab province a Brake-through will be achieved when the government will approve policies on home based workers. OHS committees will be established in both federations, and OH
S trainers will be trained.The project will benefit generally textile sector workers, and in particular those who are home based workers. Also both federations will benefit due to increased membership and more trained officials (activists, leaders OHS trai
ners). Project coordination will be done by LEF and main implementing organisations will be home based workers’ federation (PHBWF) and textile federation (TPGWF) and LEF.
F.a: Enhancing sustainable peace and inter-communal reconciliation in the Greater Upper Nile Region The Greater Pibor area,and more broadly the Greater Upper Nile Region of South Sudan, still remain one of the most underdeveloped areas with a long and complex history of conflict and marginalization. Recent peace efforts have not brought sustainable solut
ions to communal and pastoral violence, competition for land and natural resources, border disputes, poor governance and insecurity.The main objective: To contribute to achieving sustainable peace, reconciliation and stability in the Greater Pibor area, an
d more broadly in the Greater Upper Nile Region.Specific objectives are:1. Develop the capacity of the faith oriented actors in mediation and reconciliation.2. Facilitate holistic intra and inter communal peace and reconciliation processes and develop comm
unity level conflict transformation and peace support structures.Expected results:The project attempts to support holistic peace processes and initiatives supported, and to facilitate the establishment and strengthening of conflict transformation and peace
 support structures and mechanisms, with the aim of decreasing the level of violence and encouraging peaceful coexistence both locally and nationally.The key elements of the project are: conflict resolution, peacebuilding, dialogue, mediation, reconciliati
on, trust and confidence building, governance and stability. In addition to concrete project activities, FCA will also strengthen the capacity of partners, engage in advocacy work, and continue networking and building relationships with all stakeholders. R
ight-holders/ beneficiaries:  The target groups of the project are the local communities, religious and traditional leaders, and the local administration. The right-holders are all the women, men and children of conflict-affected areas in the in the Greate
r Pibor area, and more broadly in the Greater Upper Nile Region.Duty-bearers engaged in the project: The duty-bearers include the parties of the peace agreement signed in 2014, GPAA administration, local authorities and all the decision-makers in the commu

F.a: Strenghtening of Food Security The project focuses on training on good hygiene practices, healthy diet, organic farming and raising of animals. Support is also given to fruit trees planting, construction of fish ponds and water filters. Many children in Kampong Thom are malnourished, of
ten due to lack of food but also because of the low nutritional value of the food that they are given, as well as poor hygiene and lack of information about healthy diet. The beneficiaries, poor families in Kampong Thom province, will have enhanced food qu
antity and quality, improved hygiene practices, raised level of knowledge in food related issues and increased awareness of healthy diet and hygiene. New sustainable food production methods are applied. The implementing partner is Church World Service (CWS
).
FLC: Exploring the Constitution This project stems from several questions mainly one: How to think of citizen participation in the debate on the constitution to improve the democratic life of the country considering many people have not even read the Chilean Constitution nor know its ori
gin from the Pinochet dictatorship much less the way this document determines the life of the country and the people?The project aims therefore to develop a web platform that allows exploring the contents of the Chilean Constitution so as to encourage civi
c participation and empowerment of citizens. These may tour the contents of the Constitution through a reading interface on line and a set of tools (definitions index visuals questions views etc.). In this way the project will contribute to recognizing the
 scope that the Constitution has in the life of the country thus contributing to the debate on the rights and obligations of citizens.
F.a: Income generating project This is an income generating project for the group through piggery, poultry, knitting, retail business, farming and tailoring for 15 persons (6 women, 2 girls, 4 men and 2 boys). The main activities will be information sharing meetings, procurement of proj
ect items for piggery, poultry, knitting, retail, farming + tailoring, handover of the items to the beneficiaries as well as monitoring and reporting.
F.a: South Caucasus: Supporting Peace Process Competences of Government Officials in Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia Twenty years after the dismantling of the Soviet Union, the South Caucasus is still searching for a conflict settlement framework that will satisfactorily address the ambiguous status of the secessionist regions of Abkhazia, South Ossetia and Nagorno-Karab
akh. As the experience in the South Caucasus peace processes shows, the approaches to this complex environment relying on traditional diplomatic instruments have generated only standardized approaches to peace processes leading to rather fragile outcomes a
nd a stalemate in the peace talks. The lack of knowledge of basic concepts and core competencies in peace process design at executive levels is acute and is reflected on every other aspect of the peace-making attempts in the region. In addition, there is n
o meaningful debate and discussion internally on the possible ways towards resolution of the conflict. A structured peace mediation capacity building and coaching process is needed for key actors in conflict resolution executive positions and actors strate
gically advising members of the Armenian, Azerbaijani and Georgian governments actively involved in the official peace process. The project supports Track 1 actors in Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia to improve their competence in better understanding peace
 process design that can have long-lasting effects in the peace processes in the region.The project will provide in-depth exposure to lessons learned from international best practices and sequenced immersion in concrete case-studies will allow for both ref
lection and applied learning practice, while creating a space where key actors from relevant executive agencies can engage together in “out of the format” brainstorming about the processes that they are responsible for directly. In the same manner, the
 possibility to exchange ideas in a safe and familiar environment encourages an organic search for potential solutions and strategies and will enable in the long term the development of an internal demand for more informed multi-track international support

F.a: Nepal country programme Nepal’s biodiversity is under constant threat from habitat degradation and fragmentation, deforestation and forest degradation which are driven by unplanned infrastructure development, uncontrolled forest fires. The iconic Himalayan species as tigers and
 snow leopards are threaten by poaching and illegal wildlife trade as well as causing human wildlife conflicts in some areas. Moreover, climate change has exacerbated the threats to biodiversity and people’s livelihoods.We work in two priority landscapes
 in Nepal: Terai Arc Landscape in Southern-Nepal and Sacred Himalayan Landscape in North-East-Nepal. The conservation work improves corridor and buffer zone conservation and management, reduces deforestation and strengthens community-based conservation. Ou
r work enables increase in the population of key species such as rhino and tiger by decreased illegal wildlife trade and poaching and protection of their habitats. Improvement of the livelihoods and wellbeing of the local communities is gained through deve
loping income generating activities such as forest-based enterprises and by increasing access to energy and developing health and hygiene solutions. In addition we increase conservation awareness and empower local youth to act for the environment. We also 
develop integrated river basin management and water smart communities which help local communities to adapt in climate change. Beneficiaries: the local community forest user groups, women and youth groups, ethnic minority groups, forest workers and disadva

FLC: APNAC / Towards a Corrupt Free Zambia The 2015?2016 project aims to build upon APNAC Zambia?s previous activities implemented during the last grant from the Finnish Embassy. This is in an effort to provide continuation of programmes and ensure sustainability. A specific focus will be on advoca
cy work based on research on legislation carried out during the previous FLC project. During the project APNAC Zambia will undertake activities under two main outcome areas as part of the organisation strategic focus 2014-2017. Firstly APNAC recognises tha
t coalitions have particular relevance for enhancing parliaments as anti-corruption forces. Where such coalitions are in place anti-corruption legislators can depend on a base of support for their activities and wield a powerful political weapon as they co
nfront corrupt practices. Through engagement of political parties CSOs and media the expected final outcome is a strong advocacy base for APNAC due to support from different identified stakeholders as well as a strengthened platform for MPs to operate from
. The activities will involve training of leaders of political parties party youth and media as well as discussion forums with like-minded organisations to identify ways in which joint activities may be undertaken. Secondly APNAC endeavours to enhance the 
effectiveness of its operations through further strengthening the capacity of parliamentarians to engage with corruption issues. Activities will involve training on evidence-based advocacy and international protocols as well as orientation of new members. 
The primary beneficiary group is the approx. 100 members as well as media and CSO representatives. The activities will mainly take place around the capital Lusaka.
