Building Scalable Model for Personalized Learning in Indian Public Schools To enable individualized instruction in classrooms with limited resources, education technology company Educational Initiatives (Ei) developed Mindspark, a personal adaptive learning (PAL) software that identifies individual student learning levels in math, the predominant local language, and English through diagnostic tests. It then provides targeted instruction to help students learn at a level and pace most appropriate for them. Mindspark is one of only a few rigorously-tested PAL software programs in India and has demonstrated significant and cost-effective learning gains in independent evaluations, including a randomized controlled trial. Mindspark has been used by 500,000 students and is available in nine languages on tablets, laptops, and computers. With support from Development Innovation Ventures (DIV), Ei will make Mindspark accessible to students in public schools, reaching 40,000 students and 1,000 teachers across 200 government day schools over three years.

Holistic Early Childhood Development (ECD) for children with complex disabilitie 300 children with complex disabilities in Central and Eastern Uganda, will benefit from holistic Early Childhood Development (ECD), addressing their health, nutrition, safety, protection, stimulation and care needs. They will also be supported to attend local pre-primary educational settings to prepare them for inclusive primary school.  Evidence collected will help strengthen government policy in Early Childhood Development to increase access and sustain the inclusion of children with complex disabilities who are some of the most marginalised.
Linking capital, Malawian entrepreneurs and smallholder farmers. In 2009 MicroEnterprise Africa (MEA) and two Malawian social entrepreneurs purchased 500 acres of former tobacco land, cleared it and are building a commercial farm which is set to make its first operating profit in 2013. Commercial farms in Malawi often contract with farmers but do not aim to empower them, only profit from them. This project aims to turn a commercial farm into a resource centre for local subsistence farmers, about 70% of whom with no formal support systems, live below the poverty line and 40% below the extreme poverty line. It will help build a smallholder farmer association made up of 50 groups of around 15 farmers each, who live in villages near the commercial farm, increasing farmers' incomes by at least 50% over four years, and shortening the ‘food gap' – the period when families in this area have neither crops to eat nor cash to buy food for the household. The project will fund dedicated personnel to support each farming family to select and grow crops which will be marketed alongside the output of the commercial farm. Each family will receive seeds, fertiliser and specialist technical support to grow products for the commercial farm to sell. The village groups will also be supported to develop their internal procedures and financial management skills as village organisations, and over three years will be helped to develop an independent association of all the groups with a seat for a local representative on the Board of the commercial farm. Small holder interests will be channelled through a smallholder advisory committee made up of leaders and representatives of each group to MEA which owns 50% of the farm.
Kuapa Kids Camps Child Labour Project (Ghana) The health system in Sierra Leone is still recovering from the effects of the civil war.  Free health care for pregnant women and children under five years was introduced in 2010.  However the strategy for community-based approaches for maternal and child health is not being implemented.  Maternal and child death rates are still above the 2015 MDG target, and are even worse in Kambia district. This project will pilot Community Health Education in three communities in Kambia district. People will know more about basic health messages, and the importance of timely health care. The project will measure whether the model increases the number of pregnant women and children using free primary health care services. Learning from this pilot project will be used to inform the scale up of a community health education programme across the district.
Sierra Leone Urban Research Centre (SLURC): Capacities and knowledge for improvi Freetown’s slums are amongst the most difficult places to survive – let alone thrive - on earth. Faced with enormous challenges in providing shelter and services of any kind, there are many projects which attempt to improve living conditions. But they do so with little co-ordination or useful information on exactly the scale and extent of the problems. Through a new organisation linked to the University, this project will train and support people to bring existing and new information together on Freetown’s slums with the aim of contributing to Freetown’s first urban development plan. This could significant improve the quality and coordination of services in the slums, leading to slums dwellers being more secure, safe and better off.
Supporting communities affected by HIV and TB in Zambia Zambia has one of the world's worst HIV epidemics. One in seven adults is living with HIV, and about half of the people with HIV also have tuberculosis (TB). TB is responsible for more than a quarter of all HIV-related deaths in Zambia. People with HIV are vulnerable to TB because their immune systems are weak, but TB is often undetected and untreated in both people with and without HIV. This project will work with the government to link people with HIV and/or TB with health centres so that they are diagnosed and treated. Volunteers will teach people to recognise symptoms of HIV and TB and encourage them to seek health services. People with HIV and/or TB will be visited to help them adhere to their treatment. Family members of people with HIV and/or TB will be trained to provide care. The project will work with local health structures to make sure that support will continue when the grant ends. The project will work with other organisations to advocate for improved health services that respond to the needs of people with HIV and TB. As a result, more people will get better treatment for HIV and TB.
Agri-enterprise in sunflower growing for women heads of families - climate chang After decades of civil war, people in much of northern Uganda are returning home.  Many are widows or orphans, with no experience of farming from a life in refugee camps. While small scale farming may feed the family, it is not enough to make significant income without help.  This project works with groups of women and orphans to come together growing sunflower for sale, alongside their traditional crops. It also ensures that land ownership is defined, and works to link the groups to markets, increasing income for education, health and care for those with HIV/AIDS. The project is run through a well established Ugandan organisation. While the main programme focuses on enterprise, the climate element will allow expansion to cover wider environmental understanding and significantly reduce the risks of climate change.  By increasing the range of products the project will increase the potential for profit, and also reduce vulnerability. A range of tree crops will be introduced to fix nitrogen, retain rain and reduce erosion, increase flowers for bees and provide organic inputs.  Each of the 600 families will be provided with goats – these will be primarily for manure; and with bees for honey and pollination. Training and equipment will be provided, and as these replicate, offspring will be passed to other project members. A full time environmental officer will train and support a team of village level volunteers to provide support and information. This will be backed up with radio programmes and an information centre, from which community information days will be run.  These inputs will support the farmers to use organic and non-destructive farming methods, and to reduce their vulnerability to unpredictable and extreme weather. Additional climate funding for this project will enable the UK and African partners to implement less vulnerable rural development projects.  In this case, it will ensure that new farmers – returning from refugee camps – will learn how to adapt their farming to reduce risks. This is particularly important as their current project focuses on one crop. Additional funding will bring livestock and bees into the project, and help them (and their communities) to grow a range of new crops better able to withstand unpredictable weather.
African Foundation for Development - Organisational Development Grant This grant will support a UK Diaspora organisation that helps Africans in the UK contribute effectively to lasting change – particularly increased wealth – in Africa.  AFFORD will contract a consultant to help them apply for funds. They will visit Southern Sudan and East Africa to build the connections and do the research needed for projects there. They will pay a designer to improve the website; and get new software to build a database of Africans with relevant skills and roles in Europe, supported by a consultant.   This will mean the organisation will have enough funds to carry out projects in two new countries; and will have completed the preliminary studies. An improved and secure website will be where policy makers and those doing projects can find useful resources, case-studies and guidance. A new database will make AFFORD much more efficient in identifying people it needs to lobby for support, or people to help with projects. As a result of strengthening the organisation to share its learning and replicate its work in more countries, more people in Africa will ultimately find better jobs and enjoy a better standard of living.
Communities For Social Change Adama is a railway transit town with a population of 127,842 (7-18 population is 63,352) of which over 2000 are children living off on/the the streets. The railway is a big attraction for business opportunities and many people have fallen into the trap of chasing dreams which have resulted in poor livelihoods. Children have either been born or migrated to this place in search of opportunities and many are living tough lives eking a living as porters, casual workers, sex workers simply living on the streets. The rights of these children are trampled upon every day and they have limited safety nets. This application will undertake a research into the context of the street children in the country and Adama in particular, the extent of the problem, the nature of the problem, the available opportunities for addressing the problems. It will map out existing services and identify the key stakeholders. The result will be a greater understanding of the situation of street children in Adama, the opportunities there are to address any identified issues, and design of appropriate interventions. Implementation of follow-on programmes should ensure the upholding of the rights of street children, and ensuring a brighter future for them.
