F.a: Decent Work and Union Building The project supports recruitment of around 3 000 new members to the Mozambican unions organizing in forestry sector, encouragement of members to be active in the unions by establishing 30 study circles focusing on basic union action and by training 50 trai
ners who in turn train a couple of hundred shop stewards, OHS representatives and other active members in basic rights and health and safety. Additionally union leaders expand their knowhow by familiarizing themselves with other countries’ experiences ab
out servicing members, negotiations and advocacy work. This way the capacity of the unions to act in an environment increasingly dominated by MNCs grows and they are able to effectively defend the interests of the members and influence industrial policies.
 As a result of the project the unions grow both in quantity and quality and become more relevant stakeholders in the development of the forestry sector. Beneficiaries are members of the implementing unions, shop stewards, OHS representatives, union leader
ship and ultimately forestry sector workers through improved working conditions. Two unions representing agriculture + forestry workers and chemical + paper industry are the implementing partners.

Youth as Promoters of Development in VRAEM Nuoret kehityksen edistäjinä VRAEM alueella Youth are in a central role in developing their communities and societies as well as in poverty reduction. Youth need to have a chance for participation in their communities? and area?s development through different channels and means. In Peru youth face m
ultiple challenges for their social and economic participation. Main challenges relate to lack of participation structures lack of quality education and decent work possibilities and ethnic and gender discrimination. Considering this the overall objective 
of the Project is to promote youth empowerment and young people?s active participation in development. The specific objective is to empower 650 youth in 50 youth groups in VRAEM (Valley of the Apurímac Ene and Mantaro Rivers) area in Peru in order to enha
nce youth?s possibilities for participation and economic involvement and strengthen teachers? parents? and community leaders? capacities as well as public networks to support youth. The aim is to enhance the possibilities for joined actions and also the ap
preciation of youth in the region and in the local policies. Special attention is given to the promotion of indigenous youth?s rights. In addition 250 teachers and 650 parents and community leaders are reached to support youth development. Public sector su
pport is essential for youth participation so that the challenges the area and the youth face may be tackled.FCYF?s local partner organization in Peru is CEDRO Centro de Información y Educación para la Prevención del Abuso de Drogas. The crosscutting th
emes of Finland?s Development Policy are included in the Project through mainstreaming gender equality and environmental sustainability and through decreasing inequality by focusing on most vulnerable youth. Perussa nuorilla on monia haasteita sosiaalisessa ja taloudellisessa osallistumisessa. Suurimpina ongelmina ovat osallistumista edesauttavien rakenteiden korkeatasoisen koulutuksen ja säällisen työn puute sekä etnisyyteen ja sukupuoleen perustuvaan syr
jintä. Nuoret kehityksen edistäjinä ? hankkeen tavoitteena on tukea nuorten yrittäjyyttä ja aktiivista vaikuttamista yhteisöjensä kehitykseen. Hankkeessa tuetaan 650 nuorta viidessäkymmenessä nuorten ryhmässä VRAEM - alueella Perussa. Heille tar
jotaan yrittäjyyskoulutusta sekä tuetaan yrityssuunnitelman laatimisessa ja yrityksen perustamisessa. Tämän lisäksi nuoret saavat elämäntaitoihin ja sosiaaliseen osallistumiseen liittyvää valmennusta ja heitä avustetaan vapaaehtoisprojektien teko
on ryhmissä.  Hankkeessa vahvistetaan myös opettajien vanhempien ja yhteisön johtajien kykyä tukea nuoria sekä verkostoidaan heitä.  Tarkoituksena on lisätä mahdollisuuksia yhteiseen vaikuttamistyöhön ja nostaa esiin nuorten ääntä ja arvostust
a päätöksenteossa. Erityistä huomiota annetaan alkuperäiskansoihin kuuluvien nuorten oikeuksien vahvistamiseen.Suomen lasten ja nuorten säätiön kumppanijärjestö Perussa on CEDRO (Centro de Información y Educación para la Prevención del Abuso d

F.a: PITA Participatory And Integrative Teaching Approach Project provides in-service training to secondary school teachers working in disadvantaged secondary schools in Meru District Council. Most importantly, the aim is to increase the use of participatory and integrative teaching approach in teaching English, 
Geography and History. Additionally, themes such as environmental issues, social aspects of the hiv and aids -pandemia and gender equality will be holistically integrated in the mentioned subjects. Teachers’ skills will be strengthened both in theoretica
l knowledge and practical training. Also research articles will be produced. During the recent years, secondary education in Tanzania has been characterised by a growing number of schools and students, and at the same time, by an alarming rate of failure i
n national Form 4 examinations. In the area of teaching approach, the Ministry of Education of Tanzania has introduced a curriculum change for secondary school subjects, including a shift from teacher-centered to learner-centered participatory approach. Th
e introduction of new syllabuses has not been accompanied by adequate in-service training for the teachers working in the field. This has caused confusion, uncertainty and resistance among the teachers initially trained according to the principles of the t
raditional teacher-centered approach. PITA Project will be implemented in collaboration between TUMA University Faculty of Education, Meru District Education authorities and selected secondary schools. The project benefits the secondary school teachers and
 students but on top of that, it offers the academic programmes an opportunity to test and apply participatory and integrative teaching methods in practical grass root level teaching and to develop the teacher training programmes to meet the requirements a
nd challenges of the Tanzanian reality. In 2014 a background survey was conducted and 20 econdary schools with approximately 4.200 students and 120 teachers chosen to the project.Menetelmänä on järjestää koulutusseminaareja ja käytännön työpajoja 
yliopistolla sen henkilökunnalle sekä projektikoulujen opettajille. Opittu viedään käytäntöön ohjatuissa luokkatilanteissa. Hankkeessa kiinnitetään huomiota myös oppimisvaikeuksiin ja niiden tunnistamiseen.  Hankkeen puitteissa tuotetaan opetusm
ateriaalia ja tavoitteena on julkaista myös tutkimusartikkeleita.  The method is to arrange training seminars and practical workshops at the University to the university staff and secondary school teachers and the knowledge and the learned knowledge will 
be taken to practice in supported class room sessions. Also learning difficulties and learning disabilities will be addressed.  PITA project is implemented by Tumaini University Makumira (TUMa) which is FELM’s longtime partner. TUMa Faculty of Humanities
 and Social Sciences was constructed in 2003-2010 as a FELM development cooperation project financed by MFA of Finland.
Andean regional biodiversity programme BioCAN Andien alueellinen ympäristöohjelma BioCAN This Regional Biodiversity Programme in the Andean Community is based on the achievements of the Environmental Project in Peru (BIODAMAZ). The Programme is implemented in the Andean Community countries together with the Andean Community Secretariat (CAN). 
The objectives of the project are to protect the environment of the Amazonian region of the Andean countries and support a sustainable use of the forests to create and make use of modern information systems on the biodiversity and land use planning (as ZEE
 - Ecological and Economical Zoning) created in the BIODAMAZ -project together with IIAP - Institute for Investigation of the Peruvian Amazon) exchange of information training and creating better living conditions for the indigenous peoples. The implementa
tion phase of the BioCAN programme is 2010-2013. Ohjelman tavoitteena on köyhyyden vähentäminen ja ympäristön kestävän käytön ja suojelun edistäminen mihin pyritään tukemalla Andien Yhteisön alueellisen biodiversiteettistrategian neljää toimintalinjaa. Hankkeen tarkoituksena on parantaa ka
pasiteettiä biodiversiteetin kestävän käytön suunnittelussa ja antaa teknistä biodiversiteettiin liittyvissä temaattisissa kysymyksissä. Ohjelma on suunniteltu tukemaan maankäytön suunnittelua osallistavan suunnittelun ja uusien teknisten ja tekn
ologisten metodien avulla (esm Ecological and Economic Zoning ZEE) ja maiden alueellisessa biodiversiteettistrategiassa ekosysteemien säilyttämiselle ja kestävälle käytölle määriteltyjä toimintalinjoja. Yksi keskeinen tavoive on tukea paikallisen 
kestävään käyttöön perustuvan liiketoiminnan kehittämistä ja hallinnon kapasiteettia tämän edistämiseen.Alueellista hanketta on edeltänyt Perun BIODAMAZ-hanke joka jatkuu vuoteen 2007. Tämän hankkeen tulokset ovat olleet kansainvälisesti mer
kittäviä ja BioCAN-hankkeessa pyritäänkin hyödyntämään BIODAMAZ-projektin kokemuksia ja laajentaa hyviksi havaittuja käytäntöjä naapurimaihin. Alueellista biodiversitettihanketta toteutetaan yhteistyössä Andien yhteisön (CAN) kanssa. CAN:n Y
mpäristö- ja kehitysministereistä koostuva neuvosto (CAAAM) antoi maaliskuussa 2005  tukensa tälle alueellisen hankkeen suunnitelmalle todeten että se edistäisi yhteisön kehittämisstrategian päämääriä. Samalla hanke tukee CAN:n roolia Brasilia
n rinnalla Amazonian alueen kestävän käytön hankkeissa ja vahvistaa informaatioyhteiskuntaa. Hanke tukee myös alueen maiden pyrkimyksiä vuosituhattavoitteiden toteutumiseen paikallistason pienhankkeiden kautta. Hankkeessa on meneillään sen toteutus
vaiheen 2010-2013 viimeinen vuosi.

F.a: Labour Research in Mozambique The project supports a research initiative related to youth employment, reasons for youth un- and underemployment and the position of young workers in the labour market, taking as examples so called megaprojects in five places around the country. After com
pletion of the research report there will be a launching / publishing event, distribution and use in the relevant affiliate unions of OTM-CS. OTM-CS has recently started research activities by elaborating a high quality general overview of the current labo
ur market situation, but has since not had sufficient resources to carry out other research projects with more limited thematic focus; however, this kind of research reports are important tools for the unions to defend the interests of members and engage i
n policy – advocacy work. As results it is expected that the visibility and more active intervention capacity of the trade union movement improves, the negotiation and advocacy work becomes more effective and these indirectly boost membership growth and 
active participation. Beneficiaries are members of the 16 OTM-CS affiliates. The project is carried out by the older and bigger of the two Mozambican national centres Organização dos Trabalhadores de Moçambique – Central Sindical OTM-CS.
