Biosafety and biosecurity/prevention of spread of infectious diseases Biosafety and biosecurity related projects aim at building capacity in developing countries to prevent the spread of infectious diseases. This project aims at preventing unintentional and intentional spread of infections diseases by supporting biosecurity 
projects in the developing countries. The existence and outbreaks of diseases that are dangerous to life place great strains to the national healthcare systems. Efforts to identify microbes that cause infectious diseases are vital to any nation?s public he
alth system. The Finnish Centre for Biothreat Preparedness (BUOS)/Centre for Military Medicine will administer and implement biosecurity project that will strengthen the know-how of making diagnosis of infectious diseases in Tanzania. The goal of the progr
amme is to train Tanzanians of this knowhow but also to operate related equipment which enables rapid diagnosis of infections diseases. Local expertise detection abilities and developing of biosecurity know-how reduces potential biothreat. The project stre
ngthens capacity in Tanzania but also builds global security. The main collaborator is the Tanzania Veterinary Laboratory Agency which is part of the public health sector. This project is a 5-year project and totals 830 000 Euros.

Protecting the sacred land of Wixarika-indigenous people and supporting the own school in Santa Catarina The project aims at protecting the sacred place of an indigenous people the wixarika and at supporting the education project of the Wixarika community of Tuapurie Santa Catarina Cuexcomatitlan so that the school will get a status as a Mexican public school
.The federal government of San Luis Potosi in Mexico granted big businesses mining permissions for the holy place of the wixarika. The area is a nature reserve and a UNESCO world heritage site. The implementation of the permissions is suspended at the mome
nt due to a lawsuit by the wixarika but diverse judicial and political acts as well as networking and cooperation between different parties are still needed in order to protect the nature of the area and the wixarika culture.The wixarika community of Santa
 Catarina started to plan and implement the community?s own development model in 2008. In order to establish the effects of the 2010?2012 project the project continues to enable the community?s own secondary school to continue its activities thanks to the 
salary paid to the coordinator while the process of applying for public funding is unfinished. The project fits the cross-cutting themes of the Finnish development cooperation because it fights for respecting the human rights and land property rights of th
e indigenous people. Although this project does not focus on improving gender equality it is taken into consideration and the project tries to promote it. The project also includes significant factors which mitigate the effects of climate change and protec
t the environment both in Wirikuta and in Santa Catarina. The project does not create new structures but develops existing methods. The wixarika have created the defence front of Wirikuta which assembles several NGOs. In addition the community of Santa Cat
arina has organised itself autonomously and pondered on what kind of development it wants for the region.  The main beneficiaries are the wixarika people as a whole due to protecting their sacred place and culture and the teachers and the students of the S
anta Catarina school. The most central activities of the project are the legal proceedings connected with protecting Wirikuta and enabling the work of the coordinater of the Santa Catarina school by paying his salaries.

Frame Agreement with NGO (Finn Church Aid) Evaluation of LWF Haiti country strategy
Frame Agreement with NGO (Finn Church Aid) Deep-rooted gender inequalities and gender-based violence (GBV) are pervasive in Cambodian society, particularly in areas where poverty is widespread, unemployment is high, and education levels are low. The low levels of literacy and education limit women?
s options for generating sufficient income for decent living which exposes them and their children to the risk of exploitation and violence. In addition, low family incomes and social attitudes all combine to create numerous barriers to girls attending or 
remaining in school, causing them to drop out before completing their basic education and thereby increasing their vulnerability. Women and girls also have less voice and thus little influence in decision-making processes in their communities due to prevai
ling gender stereotypes.The target area of the project is Siem Reap province which is one of the poorest provinces of Cambodia, with a high number of female-headed households, most of whom are poor and under considerable economic and social stress. Project
 objectives include:? Empowered women are able to generate income through group businesses and small enterprises? Clusters of savings groups formed into Federations in the target areas to provide support to vulnerable women to curb financial crisis and all
 forms of violence? Girls from poor families living in the target areas are empowered through access to education (scholarships, vocational and life skills training)  Rights-holders /beneficiaries: The most vulnerable women and girls including women from p
oor families, landless and women recovering from violence, men and boys will also benefit directly and indirectly from saving groups and community awareness, CWCC staff, family members of targeted women, community members, partner NGOs and members of local
 authorities. Implementing partner: The Cambodia Women?s Crisis Centre (CWCC) is a recognised, local non-governmental organisation established in 1997 with the aim of combatting all forms of violence against women and children. CWCC endeavours to support a
nd empower the survivors to realise their rights and to lead a dignified life. CWCC has extensive experience in responding to the needs of the most vulnerable groups of society through a wide variety of interventions, including social assistance, legal pro
tection, community organising, economic empowerment through skills training and small business loans, and promotion of access to secondary education for vulnerable girls.

Frame Agreement with NGO (Finn Church Aid) A large proportion of the economically active population of Liberia is engaged either directly or indirectly in small-holder subsistence agriculture, but the bulk of the population still suffers from food insecurity. Women are major players in the agricult
ural sector, where they constitute the majority of small-holder producers and the agricultural labor force in general.  Women carry heavy workload and have multiple roles that include earning income and managing their household. At the same time, cultural 
and social organisation limit women?s access to and control over productive assets. Within the agriculture sector, poultry production still remains a challenge with approximately 95% of the poultry produce being imported from abroad. The project improves t
he poultry sector to a more viable and sustainable sector and in particular targets vulnerable women. The overall objective of the project is to reduce poverty among rural, female-headed households through the development of backyard poultry farming. Addit
ional objective is transformation of partner?s semi-commercial poultry farm into a profit-making independent business entity that integrates backyard farmers into a larger production system and generates income for implementing partner to carry out rural d
evelopment projects thereby reducing its dependency on donor funding and thus increase its sustainability. The project will have the following expected results/impact: 1) Functional and independent farm/production unit developed and opportunities for busin
ess expansion created, 2) beneficiaries income earning capacities improved through backyard poultry layer (egg production), 3) improved farming methods for the cultivation of crops (corn and soya) for feed production adopted by beneficiaries.The project ac
tivities include training beneficiaries through an established Farmers Field Schools (FFS) approach, providing assorted farming tools and implements, and supporting construction of mini-poultries and providing point-to-lay layers at first stage. Other acti
vities include promoting the formation of farmers? cooperatives and training of participants in small business development and management skills in order to properly market and manage their products. In addition, business development support is provided to
 the implementing partner. Rights-holders/beneficiaries: Rural women, in particular vulnerable women  Implementing partner:  Project New Outlook (PNO)
