F.a: Transport Corridors in West Africa Through this project a regional collective agreement is negotiated for West African transport sector, covering all important transport corridors and the minimum terms and conditions of employment.The road transport sector has grown rapidly over the last fe
w years due to economic globalisation in West Africa. Privatisation, deregulation and outsourcing have fragmented the company structures in the sector. This causes a rapid change in the employment contracts towards precarious employment such as temporary a
nd short-term employment. For the employees in the sector this means a weakening in terms and conditions of employment, living standards and occupational safety as well as an increasingly hostile and anti-trade unionism environment among employers. When lo
bbying becomes challenging the number of members decreases, which in turn leads to trade unions losing their influence in society. The project aims at strengthening trade unions’ collective bargaining and thereby improving the terms and conditions of emp
loyment. After the first phase of the project West African transport sector trade unions have negotiated regional collective agreements covering the minimum terms and conditions of employment in all the countries and are monitoring the implementation of th
e agreements. Furthermore, the recruitment and membership services have become more effective and the knowledge on interest representation has increased at workplaces (border, bus stops and truck rest stops).Beneficiaries of this project are organisers, ne
gotiators, officers and activists of the local trade unions. The rank and file members benefit from the project in the form of better terms and condition of employment.The project is implemented by transport sector global union International Transport Work
ers’ Federation ITF.

F.a: Legal assistance for victims of gender-based violence Groups' guerrilla violence has ceased, but women continue to suffer from violence and a threat of rape committed by the security forces.

o provide legal aid for victims of sexual violence and their children. In addition, the goal is the capacity building of legal officers of gender-based violence, as well as supervising the creation of local committees and their capacity building. The proje
ct's focus is on promoting women's rights. The target group is made up of victims of sexual violence, women and children as well as women in prisons. In addition,  legal advisers, local authorities and community leaders will be participating in the project

F.a: Moldova-Transdniestria: Support to the Transdniestrian Conflict Settlement CMI will continue its support to a 1.5 track dialogue process including senior independent experts and officials from both sides of the conflict divide and from key international community. The already notorious High level expert dialogue group on the Tran
sdniestrian settlement process will be convened for the 3rd consecutive year to engage in regular discussions and jointly analyse key political, security, economic, and social trends with a potential to impact the conflict settlement. Peer support and lear
ning best practices and challenges from other conflict zones and peace processes will be also encouraged.  In parallel with facilitating and supporting the work of the high-level expert dialogue group, CMI will also focus on supporting the Confidence Build
ing process (CMI will resume its work with the Education WG and start working with the Economy and Security WGs) - linking the work of the official bilateral Working Groups to local and international expertise through methodologically proven processes for 
dialogue and policy analysis.  CMI will also explore the possibility to support an intra-Moldovan political dialogue among key actors from across the spectrum of Moldova’s political-intellectual elite which will help to constructively and inclusively add
ress existing divisions and conflict-generating narratives between key socio-political groups in the country, thus directly contributing to building an inclusive society with the ability to withstand internal and external conflictual shocks.

F.a: Strengthening the West African Health Sector Unions The project strengthens the West African health sector trade union network’s knowledge and awareness of regional organisations’ modes of operation and decision making policies, so that trade unions can influence the decision-making in them.For public s
ector workers, trade union activity and advocacy in West African countries is very difficult. The rights of public sector workers to organise have been severely restricted and the sector's trade unions are not officially recognised by the central governmen
t as negotiating partners. In addition, trade union members and union leaders are threatened and pressured to give up advocacy work and trade union activities. The project strengthens the knowledge of West African trade unions’ officers, education office
rs and presidents on decision-making processes in multilateral institutions. As a result, they will be able to influence health care and social policies in the region. In the first phase of the project national plans of action are prepared. The plans of ac
tion will direct the lobbying to essential ministries and country representatives of multilateral institutions. The beneficiaries of the project are the West African health sector workers, most of whom are women, whose position in the labour market system 
improves as a result of the more worker friendly legislation.The project is implemented by public sector global union federation Public Services International (PSI).
