YMCA-VSLA oung Men's Christian Association of Nigeria (YMCA) will focus on  implementing the project in Nasarawa State. Young Men Christian Association of Nigeria will trained  eleven (11) field officers and fifty five(55) village agents in Village Savings and Loans Association (VSLA) methodologies. These trained officers will then facilitate the stepping down of the training for 8 250 VSLA members on community-based micro-credit scheme, entrepreneurship and leadership. During the year, the  field officers will identify strong 50 women leaders from the savings groups that will be further trained and certified as village agents. The 55 village agents will help spread the formation of new groups quickly to reach the desired number by end of year.

Oxfam will carryout community engagement and relationship building based on gender analysis and power mapping to address the underlying causes to vulnerability. Oxfam will empower the members of the VSLAs to be able to lead in awareness creation on gender related issuesand balance gender roles. On average, each member of a VS<(>&<)>LA will influence 2 external people among which her/his partner. Father#s groups will be formed to interface with VS<(>&<)>LA and the wider communities on gender relations. Male members of VS<(>&<)>LAs will be represented in father#s groups to bridge the gap between VS<(>&<)>LA and the wider communities. Oxfam staff and trained field officers will use the Women#s Economic Leadership (WEL) and the Women#s Economic Empowerment (WEE) knowledge hub resources to facilitate these discussions and promote regular contact between the VS<(>&<)>LA groups and support services. At the end of the process, at least 44 change agents will emerge from VS<(>&<)>LA and father#s groups: 936 strong female leaders and 18 male gender champions/models.
SEE IMPACT LEAP PHASE 11 The project contributes to and is aligned to the UN Women “Advancing Women’s Leadership, Empowerment and Resilience in Uganda’s Refugee Response: Phase II” and directly contributes to Outcome 3. The project intends to achieve the following results:

Goal: Positive coping mechanisms and sustainable economic activities are promoted for refugee and host community women and girls.

Outcome 1.0:  Refugee and host community women have increased access to sustainable non-agricultural livelihood opportunities.

CO-FY 24 General Support Grant to Uganda Oxfam in Uganda's new Country Strategic Framework (2021-2030) reiterates Oxfam's commitment to fighting inequality working togetherwith others, it introduces a new pillar which focuses on women's rights and gender justice. A new organogram was recently approved and will be implemented during 2023/24 taking into consideration various internal changes in the confederation.

According to Oxfam internal rating, Uganda is not considered fragile and/or a risk country and yet the country hosts the largest number of refugees in Africa and continues to experience climate induced disasters and epidemics. Uganda also experiences proliferation of small arms and light weapons which cause instability and insecurity. This disadvantages Uganda in accessing internal resources.

The reduction of presence in neighbouring countries like Rwanda and Burundi may imply Uganda’s increased engagement and role in establishing links with partners and networks in these countries to address humanitarian concerns of cross border nature.  For example, Oxfam Germany is supporting the continuation of a project on agroecology in Burundi by linking Oxfam in Uganda and partner (PELUM Uganda) to continue technical support provision to partners in Burundi through learning exchanges and future contracts management.

The fact that Ugandacontinues to operate as a full-fledged country program has implications on the scale and scope of our programming. While there has been an increase in CRA in the FY 2021/22, it still remains insufficientin supporting institutional costs required for effective programming. The country program has continued to receive unrestricted funding to complement programme financing from some partner affiliates. This support is anticipated to continue and possibly more partner affiliates will come on board. The Country Office also plans to increase its ability to raise costs recovery from restricted project funding.

Masarouna: Oxfam in Jordan In a region where securing Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) is especially challenging, Masarouna will mobilize the power of young people’s collective action in six Middle East and North Africa (MENA) countries to support their fight for greater freedom of choice and respect for their SRHR through new and innovative pathways for change. Our vision is that young people (YP) meaningfully induce sustainable change that will enable them to enjoy their SRHR.
Jordan is one of the countries where the Masarouna programme will be implemented.

Context:
In 2019, 41.4% of MENA’s population was aged 15-39, making it one of the world’s youngest regions. In recent years, young people have demonstrated their ability to become main drivers for change in response to long-standing structural inequalities, rising authoritarianism and increased levels of conflict and fragility. Young people in MENA continue to facesome of the most vocal conservative opposition to their SRHR. The problem that Masarouna will tackle is the perpetual obfuscation and the increasing weaponization of SRHR as a form of social control. This strips SRHR of the urgency it deserves, yet, we strongly believe fulfilling young people’s SRHR can have a transformative effect on sustainable development due to its connection with basic human well-being and gender equality. Strategic objective: Young people in six selected countries in the MENA region achieve more freedom to enjoy their SRHR in inclusive societies.
Targeted group: Young people aged 18-35, in particular (unmarried) women and LGBTQI+. Activists and individuals will be mobilized as agents and drivers of change throughout the programme cycle.

The programme’s strategic objective and outcomes contribute directly to achieving SDGs 3 (health and well-being), 5 (gender equality) and 10 (reduced inequalities. The programme is fully aligned with the ICPD25 Nairobi statement’s call for renewed commitments towards women’s and Young People’s SRHR.

The Masarouna programme implements two main pathways of change:

1: Lobby and advocacy with young people for theirSRHR
The first pathway promotes greater accountability of governments to adhere to international SRHR standards, human rights frameworks and agreements; promotes young people’s active and meaningful involvement in policy agenda-setting and decision-making; and increases public awareness on SRHR, including through media engagement, aiming to create new narratives on SRHR.

2: Strengthening civil society and reinventing civic space
A strong civilsociety can be a mobilizer, an amplifier of voices and a watchdog. With strengthened capacities, CSOs can create a sense of urgency around SRHR to push for sustainable change. CSOs need the space to play this political role, which Masarouna aims to reinvent by promoting the political activation and participation of young people and creating and strengthening alternative civic spaces, both online and offline. Working online allows for reaching young people at scale by circumventing gatekeepers and mitigating risks around censorship.
CCNEJ, Gouvernance Inclusive The Inclusive Governance project focuses on the participation of youth and women in community management. Young people are on the margins of governance and most are unaware of the forums in which they can and should participate to advance their cause. Young people do not participate in public debates to talk about their aspirations and encourage their peers in active life. Insecurity paralyses efforts and contributes to the vulnerability of this group because it deprives them of access to basic social services. This is why they must occupy the spaces of exchange in order to promote their right to effective participation. Young people should no longer ask to participate but should be involved and will become involved in the management of public affairs. The general objective of theproject is to promote the participation of young people and women in decision-making bodies as well as the community, to increase the commitment of 200 young girls and boys in the targeted schools in Tillaberi through their capacity building on their rights and duties, to promote a protective environment for young people by the establishment of 5 school committees of citizen commitment of young people composed of 10 members in the schools.
