Sida Fair Finance Int. Germany 21-22 Facing Finance e.V. is a non-profit Research organisation headquartered in Berlin that takes a stand against corporate violations in the areas of environment and climate change, labour and human rights, corruption, and weapons that are against international law. Since 2016, the organization is leading the Fair Finance  coalition in Germany, which researches the level of integration of ESG criteria in the policies and practices of major German banks who are active on national and/or regional level. The research results arepublished and used to inform the general public, and bank clients specifically, mainly through social and conventional media, as well as participation in Annual Share Holder meetings and specific events, where the public is interested in sustainability issues. FFGermany provides awareness raising and stimulates bank clients to take action by sending comments to their bank (either demanding improvements, praising their conduct or indicating that they will change their account toanother bank). The coalition uses the research results also to engage with the banks directly and to influence the government and financial authorities where stricter (application of ) regulation is needed. The FFG coalition works in close cooperation with other FF coalitions in Europe and Southern countries.
Sida FFI funding will be phased out and end in 2022.
Fair Finance Asia - Sida - India The Fair Finance Asia Program (FFA) envisages to reduce the negative impact of national and cross-border bank investments in Asia on human rights, the environment and climate change, and to increase adequate financial services for pro-poor, inclusive economic development. The goal is to establish a sustainable financial sector in Asia, with financial sector institutions operating at national and regional level being more transparent and accountable and adhering to Economic, Social and Governance (ESG)-criteria. FFA is funded by Sida.

This project is implemented by Oxfam India, who will lead on the establishment and execution of the Fair Finance GuideIndia. It envisages to contribute to FFA by undertaking research to understand the bank internal policies related to labour and environment, their way of reporting of their lending and investment policies, and the patterns of (un-)disclosure of good policies. Based on the research conducted, advocacy efforts are devised to transparently engage with RBI and Ministry of Finance by supporting institutions like IBA and Unions who are speaking the language of responsible banking. General awareness is built amongst the wider public on responsible banking and amongst at least 8 banks to be more conscious of the opportunity they have, through responsible policy-making and disclosures, to help protect people, especially the most excluded, and the environment.
HO-503001 The ‘Rooted in Diversity: Partnerships for Food Security and Livelihoods’ initiative will empower small-scale food producers in Niger, Malawi, Mali, Mozambique and Uganda. It prioritizes local knowledge and skills to improve food production and consumption in marginal and variable agroecologies, driven by the potential of agrobiodiversity to ensure food and nutrition security and climate resilience.

The project aims to:
1. amplify the availability and use of locally adapted crops and varieties, including neglected and underutilized food plants,
2. enhance market access and income opportunities for small-scale food producers, enabling them to capitalize on the commercialization of diverse crops, thus extending these advantages to additional rural communities via markets and exchange networks,
3. promote best agrobiodiversity management practices through exchange, collaboration and shared learning among researchers and farmers, and
4. support the voice and collective action of small-scale food producers to advocate for policy changes supporting farmer-managed seed and food systems.

This effort, led by PELUM Uganda alongside Oxfam Novib and CIRAD, is dedicated to driving systemic change. It prioritizes social cohesion, inclusion, and the rights ofvulnerable populations through proven methodologies and collective action. The implementation consortium involves grassroots organizations with a strong track record, representing farmers, CSOs, and researchers, with diverse cultural backgrounds and a collective capacity to strengthen the role of farmers as pivotal contributors and decision-makers in tackling food insecurity.

Emergency response to the food crisis The Harmonized Framework (HF) 2022 revealed that the Tahoua region has 832,776 people in need of food assistance (18% of its population), including 221,199 people classified as extremely vulnerable due to an agricultural deficit caused by the effects of climate change and the deteriorating security situation (HF, March 2022). Indeed, the department of Tillia is the most affected and tops the list of departments classified as extremely vulnerable in the region, with 13,351 extremely vulnerable people and 14,4464 people in a phase 3 and 4 food insecurity situation during the lean season from June to August 2022. During this period, already vulnerable households are adopting very harmful strategies to cope with the food crisis. According to a survey conducted by REACH in June 2022, 85% of respondents in Tillia reported that the majority of the population did not have access to enough food to meet their household needs in the 30 days prior to the survey. High food prices and the critical problem of accessing their usual livelihoods and depleting food supplies are the main barriers to accessing food.
Oxfam proposes to assist vulnerable host and displaced populations throughan unconditional cash transfer for 550 families and nutritional support for the prevention of malnutrition for 700 children under five. The cash grants are valued at about $200 (+4% commission) per household for a 3-month period while the provision of nutritionalsupport amounts to about $50 per child + handling, storage, screening and education on prevention of malnutrition (purchase of enriched flour represents about 16% of total budget and is covered by Oxfam Québec funds)
Oxfam has been operating in this area since 2020 and is partnering with two local NGOs (AGIR <(>&<)> ADLI) which also have an operational sub-office in Tillia with multi-sectoraland gender teams experienced in emergency interventions. The teams have developed strong relationships with local stakeholders and authorities and enjoy a good level of community acceptance and a solid knowledge of the local context and ongoing actions. Under Oxfam's leadership, the AGIR partner has an existing appropriate response mechanism ready to be activated. Oxfam has a framework contract with money transfer agencies for the above operations. Cash transfer operations to IDPs can be planned in a relatively short timeframe, ensuring that all humanitarian principles are respected. The proposed action will complement/synergize with Oxfam's ongoing project "Empowering Communities to Respond to Conflict-Induced Protection Risks and Pervasive Levels of Food Insecurity", as well as with humanitarian actors working in the area to cover the gaps identified in Tillia Department.

Even It Up Campaign Vietnam has a strong record of poverty reduction, but today increasing inequality is threatening decades of progress. Economic inequality in Vietnam is growing by any measure, while multiple inequalities leaves serious impacts.  Economic inequality is reinforced by inequality of voice and opportunity, with the poorest excluded in favor of the rich. Millions of people, ethnic minorities, smallscale farmers, migrants and informal workers and women are more likely to remain poor, excluded from basic socialservices and political decision making and continue to face discrimination.

As inequality is central to Oxfam’s mission to fight poverty, Oxfam in Vietnam launched Even it Up! Campaign in January 2017. Since 2018, BridgeFest (BF) has been the annual keyevent of Even it Up! in Vietnam. The event promotes key themes and messages on fighting discrimination and inequality through a series of interactive activitiesfor the public, especially the youths. Thematic talkshow, CSOs display booths, music concert,and media engagement are a few among others. This year, with the desire to spread the message of BridgeFest out of Hanoi , BridgeFest 2022 is planned to take place in Central of Vietnam (Danang). The theme will be based on the core concepts of Human Economy  with an aim to challenge the growth-based development model by asking the following questions:

-If GDP is not enough, then what is beyond GDP that matters?
-What is happinessfor us – as a human being?
-Does being richer make us happier?

As a conceptual framework and plan of Oxfam -in Vietnam in coming years, the Human Economy concept aims to make a paradigm shift from the current growth development model to one that includes all thepeople and cares for the planet. This BridgeFest will mark first time this concept is presented to the wider public.
The Objective of BF 2022 is to influence the public, especially the youths, to make a paradigm shift about development model which cares for the majority - not just a small group of richest people,and cares for the planet. Its expected impacts are to promote increased dialoguesand debates that challenge the growth-based development model.
