YLDF 2013
The project focuses upon the following two issues: active engagement of youth  in politics and youth able to make their needs,demands and voice heard (formulation of a training manual; training of youth on human rights, civic education and engagement, gender; youth issues will be introduced in the National Dialogue process and in the new constitution through lobby and advocacy ) and thetraining of youth to raise awareness on gender, gender violence and girls education issues (the production of six documentaries /short films for dissemination in the new (and the traditional) media; presentation and discussion on the documentaries with parents and students in different locations).

2015
The project focuses upon the following two issues: Increased levels of knowledge and skills among female and male youngsters of gender issues, leadership and gender research in the context of 2 Yemen governorates, which would enable them to actively engage in their community development and political life and increased levels of awareness among youth and the wider community including parents, teachers, government representative and private actors, and the public as a whole on issues linked to gender issues and womens leadership. The following outcomes were formulated for this project:
- 50 young females and males (25 females/25 males - 25 from Sanaa & 25 from Hodeida) will have been trained on Gender, Leadership (course of 40 hours)  andResearch Methodology (courses of 30 hours), and trained in using film (course of 30 hours) as a medium of expression to complement the curricula of woman empowerment programs.	
- 50 Yemeni youth (25 females/25 males - 25 from Sanaa & 25 from Hodeida) will produce at least 8 short films on Yemeni women leaders in a period of two months.

CO-506696 COP21 in Paris in December 2015 saw a historic moment with over 190 countries agreeing to a long awaited global deal to take actionon climate change. Whilst some progress was made to limit temperature increases, there remains slow progress on the finance needed by developing countries to adapt and develop with a low carbon pathway. Whilst traditional donors made some additional commitments in 2015, finance pledged for adaptation remains a drop in the ocean. Meanwhile new donors are emerging. During the climate change negotiations China made an unprecedented announcement to deliver US$3.1bn for south-south cooperation on climate change and are now in the process of deciding how to use this funding. The Chinese government#s National Development and ReformCommission (NDRC) will manage this fund.
Oxfam have for many years called for more and better climate finance from donors to deliver on the needs of vulnerablecommunities and countries to adapt to the impacts of climate change. To this effect, a high level delegation from NDRC will spend 10 days, firstly to spend each 3-day in Vietnam and Laos for field visit, then to join the 2-day conference in Cambodia for up to 50 participants from stakeholders at local, national, regional and international level ofdifferent Asian countries,. This proposed project is designed to organize the field visit in Vietnam in August with one programme approach.
This activity will provide a historic opportunity for building relationships with and influencing both Chinese government and Vietnamese government, on the flow of finance towards climate change adaptation. The local communities and civil society in Vietnam will learn how to engage with Chinese government on the shaping its climate finance mechanism to be responsible, transparent and accountable. It could become a champion among all other international climate finance mechanisms such as World Bank, Asian Development Bank and others, and promote all of them to race to the top. Eventually the local communities could gain benefits to mitigate the impacts of climate change.
Grass-root community voice on land issue The project is directly implemented by HA and NTFP to empower IP communities including men and women and their networks to demand the respects of their rights for fair and just development from mining industries and ELCs in Ratanakiri province.
Where is my medication? The aim of the action is to contribute to a financially sustainable and more efficient medical system in the OPT by supporting citizens# demand to increase budget allocation to PNA#s Ministry of Health. The increased budget to MoH will cover costs of essential medications and medical supplies needed for conducting surgeries and providing necessary medical treatments, thus reducing the need for medical referrals. This will ultimately lead to more citizens gaining access to greater quality and quantity of healthcare, and have their voice heard in a more democratic society. In addition, the intervention will facilitate policy dialogue between PNA and civil society, engage young Palestinians in the campaign and create a base for setting up a mechanism to hold MoH to account for budgetspending. During December 2016 and March 2017 Oxfam conducted two capacity building sessions with the partners on F4D project on public campaigning and influencing. As a result, the partners (AMAN, MIFTAH and ARIJ) have jointlydesigned a campaign for year two of F4D which this proposal is part of. While the part of the joint campaign will be financed and implemented under the approved year 2 Finance for Development Strategic Partnership project, this intervention aims to strengthen the joint campaign by combing different online digital (public campaigns, social media) and offline (flash mobs, music festivals) tools to engage citizens in innovative andgender-sensitive ways. The proposal aims to increase the understanding of citizens of the importance of greater allocation to MoH budget and the benefits that this can bring them, as well as on the importance of public budgets. Proposed tools will engage women and youth in a variety of forums: music festivals, cancer awareness day and interactive internet platforms (Facebook, Twitter, and specially designed web-pages). In addition, the action will aim to formalize joint work of the existing partners under the F4D project and the Civil Society Team for Enhancing Budget Transparency with its 46 members on conducting joint public campaign.
Follow the law Independent of the existence of a democratic system, the balance of power is skewed towards a small group of influential actors. Sometimes these are entrepreneurs from the corporate sector, people from the rich and powerful classes, or even armies and religious institutes. In any case there are opportunity structures that allow one actor or a small group of actors to dominate political decision-making. Our democratic systems are not free of such tendencies. The occurrences of these power games differ substantially across countries. Citizens in Uganda as well as in South Africa are deprived of their basic (human) rights, such as the right to education and health care. In the absence of effective methods of advocacy and channels for dialogue, citizens fall back on protest.
In The Netherlands laws and policies are implemented effectively, but it is very difficult for citizens to have influence on the decision-making process itself 1. Many decisions are made outside the democratic realm, which makes it difficult to hold political leaders accountable for their actions. Whilst creating prosperity and affluence, the same policies and laws set boundaries, and by doing so they limit or conflict with freedom and equality.
Netwerk Democratie created the online platform volgdewet.nl2 (followthelaw.nl): a community-based online platform for monitoring and influencing law-making processes. With this platform Netwerk Democratie created the opportunity for citizens to monitor and influence law-making processes and at the same time advocate for more transparency and accountability.
In South Africa there is no method or tool with which citizens can hold the government responsible for its actions, other than protest. This has led to a situation in which citizens set things on fire to protest against the lack of service delivery by thegovernment. It is a strong, symbolic tool but it does not guarantee better government performance. For this reason Seriti Institutehas developed a method to systematically monitor service delivery by government departments tasked with implementation of progressive policies. Uganda struggles with similar issues. In Uganda many laws and policies have been adopted, but not implemented. For thisreason CEW-IT has started th Citizens Manifesto and the NA-project. Ugandan and South African methods might gain more strength by making the linkage between human rights frameworks and specific policies.
Within this project the consortium partners want to do three things:
1. Develop and learn
Develop a manual on the online platform volgdewet.nl by Netwerk Democratie and develop a manual on community based monitoring by Seriti Institute. This in order to transfer knowledge from one country to the other two countries
2. Link and merge
Link the proven tools together, using knowledge derived by the two tools: volgdewet.nl and the Citizen Based Monitoring method to improve the list of tools on volgdewet.nl
3. Implement
Implement the online platform in South Africa and Uganda

Capacity Building of Civil Society The Project contributes to more democratic society and accountable and responsive state of Pakistan to close the tax gap and collect taxes fairly , reinforce pro-poor policies, de¬crease inequalities, and ultimately achieve marked advances in the progress towardsthe millennium development goals (MDGs).

This could be done by using tax revenues in a more transparent, accountable and redistributive way, allowing for an increase in public revenues through tax systems which effectively combat tax evasion,corruption and preventing the uncontrolled outflow of resources. Domestic tax revenues ensure sustainable funding of essential services for the poor, such as health and education. Fiscal autonomy is important - to be more resilient to face the consequences of the economic crisis . The establishment of accountable, fair and pro poor tax system could significantly improve the lives of the poor, decrease inequalities and fund part of the delivery of the MDGs. More and better aid or debt cancellations alone,although crucially essential too, are not sufficient to ensure universal, quality and sustainable essential services in the South, as they are by no means sustainable or politically viable in the mid-term. Alternative internal sources of revenue need to be developed. Sustainable finance should not be dependent on aid for the long-term. Generating national resources, or rather preventing the large uncontrolled outflow of resources and combating corruption and tax evasion, in principle is the right policy direction. However, the burden of domestic revenue mobilization should not fall dispro¬por¬tionately on the poor, as a matter of justice. As such, it is essential that national tax systems provide for appropriate levels of direct taxes, such as those thatmay be derived from progressive corporate and personal income taxes, from land/property and from non-tax revenuessuch as those from extractives industries and that excessive and discretionary tax exemptions be avoided. Such policies would not only allow for additional resources, but would also reinforce the legitimacy of public administrations in the eyes of their citizens. This requires strong legal commitment, as well as a deep insight in the legal manipulations and gaps that allow tax dodging, particularly for local elites and international companies, and in the dynamics behind the thriving corruption and tax evasion.
