HO-503001 The Global Call to Action (GCA) is a coordination and mobilisation mechanism to accelerate momentum towards the target of doubling the recognition of Indigenous Peoples# and community land rights by 2020. Co-convened by ILC, RRI and Oxfam, the GCA creates a platform and gives voice to Indigenous People and local communities while also nurturing strategic initiatives and monitoring progress towards recognition of Indigenous Peoples #and community land rights.

In 2015 and 2016 Oxfam received a grant from ILC to host the GCA coordinator and provide resources for the implementation of the Land Rights Now Campaign, one of the key strategic initiatives of the GCA launched in March 2016.  Building on the efforts of existing networks and organizations, the Campaign draws attention to collective actions around the world and seeks to make Indigenous Peoples and local communities land rights a global priority by unitingand amplifying existing efforts. The first year of implementation proved that there is huge support and strength in the ranks of the GCA - the next phase seeks to transform that into change on the ground.

This proposal focuses on the role of the GCA coordinationof this next phase for 1 year from 1 May 2017 to 30 April 2018. The key focus is on implementation of Land Rights Now initiative with some strategic support to broader GCA coordination.

CO-Vietnam This project is designed basing on recommendations from the evaluation report. It includes three main components: (i) To inform stakeholders about the transparency and legal loopholes in oil and gas sector using Conoco Philipp as a case study; (ii) PilotEITI model in Quang Tri; and (iii) Promote gender responsive mining in Ha Giang. Related to the first component, under supports from Oxfam Novib, we are conducting research on tax management loopholes basing on Conoco case. In this project, from the Conoco case, we will conduct a research #Transparency in the process of negotiating, signing and implementing oil and gas exploitation contracts in Vietnam, using Conoco Philipp as a case study  to generate policy recommendations that will be brought to discuss and inform policy makers.The research will focus on (i) Reviewing the current system of legal documents related to oil and gas exploitation and cooperation activities. Policies and regulatory documents related to the allocation of financial resources from oil and gas exploitation among related parties; (ii) Reviewing the process of developing these contracts and the actual implementation, based on the information that the public can access; (iii) Reaching out to some industry experts or managers to learn about processes and ways of disclosing information during the process of building and negotiating oil and gas contracts and (iv) Comparing the current de factor with de jure process and in the international context as well. . This will complement an on-going efforts supported by Oxfam Novib that would contribute to reform legal framework in tax collection and oil sector. Oxfam implementing partner, VEPR will be developing a detailed TOR for Conoco oil research that will be reviewed by OUS#s Senior Policy Advisor on Tax and Extractive Industries and by the EI regional Program Coordinator.
In the second component, with support from Oxfam, EITI pilot has been initiated in Quang Tri province. We have organized several trainings on EITI for multi-stakeholders including Tax Agency, Financial Department, Environmental Department and some mining companies. We have developed EITI framework for Quang Tri. The framework is under consultation process before finalization for implementation. Under this project, wewill continue to support Quang Tri to pilot EITI. This component is directly designed by Quang Tri partners including People#s Council.

In Ha Giang, we have successfully supported Ha Giang Union for Science and Technology to facilitate multi-stakeholderdialogues. Through this mechanism, some community concerns have been positively addressed by local authorities and mining companies. For example, the local authorities allocated budget to improve the road in Minh Son commune;the An Thong company invest their money for dust control in mining area. In this project, we will continue to provide support for reducing negative impacts from mining activities. However, we will focus more on gender issues. We will conduct gender impact assessment to identity maingender issues in mining sector. Basing on key finding,
GRAISEA ON MCD Vietnam The Gender transformative and Responsible Agribusiness Investment in South East Asia (GRAISEA) programme is a joint OGB/ONL regional programme in South East Asia financed by Embassy of Sweden Bangkok office for the period January 1, 2015 - March 31, 2018(3 years and 3 months inception period). It is a regional programme  based on the recognition that financial viability and gender equitable/sustainable supply chains are not mutually exclusive, and that win-win-win propositions (community/environment wins, women and men small-scale producers win, and larger businesses win) are possible.

Building on Oxfams pilots in selected commodities (palm oil and aquaculture), this programme will utilise a multi-stakeholder approach, with Oxfam acting as a convenorto bring together the diverse stakeholders to achieve the following results:

Result 1. (Contribute to) ASEAN and its member states policies have a stronger role in promoting responsible practices in agribusiness, in agribusiness investment, in small-scale agriculture and social enterprises
Result 2.  Small-scale producers are effectively linked up in agro-commercial value chains and women are recognized in these as central economic actors
Result 3. Leading corporate agribusinesses in South East Asiahave adopted corporate social responsibility policiesand plans that support responsible practices in the value chains for women and men small-scale producers
Result 4. Financial Institutions and investors in agriculture invest responsibly by introducing /developing innovative financing solutions to assist overcoming specific investment requirements (investment risks) in smallholders and buyers of these smallholders.so

This programme has been designed to take full advantage of both Oxfams and partners experiences in the region, including working with ASEAN (primarily the ASEAN Ministerial meeting on Agriculture and Forestry and SME working group) to influence the regional operating environment, as well as Oxfam?s expertise in gender equality to strengthen the individual and collective capacities of women and men smallholders. The programme works with 5 regional partners (Change Fusion, CSR Asia, Institute of Social Entrepeneurship in Asia (ISEA), SEAFish for justice network, Shujog/Impact InvestmentExchange (IIX) as well as the Oxfam GROW regional campaign team, Oxfam experts in MultiStakeholder Initiatives especially Round Table on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) and Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) and Oxfam offices and country partners in Indonesia,Vietnam, Cambodia, Myanmar, Philippines, and Thailand.

CO-506696 In Vietnam, audiences# thoughts and behaviors towards sexist adverts can be basically divided into three group based on people#s reactions and comments on social media from 75 sexist adverts dated from 2016 # 2018, collected by Wequal team  as bellow:
##Sharing as it is fun and interesting# # this group tend to support and share the ads. They may not be either purchasers or end-users yet helpto spread the products image in social media.
# #I don#t care so I ignore it# # this group tend to be neutral and often do not interact with the ads. For some, human portrayals as well as gender roles in advertising are unrealistic and those ads are often considered annoying to them whenever they use social media, watch TV or search for online information. They don#t take advertisement as something that can have impact on their lives and communities and choose not to get involved either support or defense.
#  #Being awareof sexism in advertising# # this group takes up a small bit of social media participants, tends to disagree but act individually. Their voices can easily fade away on social media channels.
Although these findings are preliminary and need to do further analysis, they prove a fact that sexism problems are real.
Learning from the current situation, within the time frame of 8 months from August 2018 to March 2019, this project aims to minimize the amount of sexism content in Vietnamese advertising industry by (1) Set up a core and active group whose members act as advertising watchdog agents to raise the public#s awareness on sexist advertising, then ultimately influence advertisers, marketers and brands to reduce sexism content in their adverts and (2) building up an alliance with like-minded advertisers to collect diverse voices of insiders and better persuade more actors from the industry to join the movement combating sexism in advertising.
SOMO IMVO Neg. 2020 Windenergy Conv. Because SOMO participates in relevant international networks, including OECD Watch and MVO Platform of which SOMO is the host organization, and European Coalition for Corporate Justice (ECCJ), we are goond independent knowledge institute and has been researching multinational companies and the impact of their activities on people and the environment for almost 50 years. In addition, SOMO supports communities and workers worldwide to receive redress if they have been damaged by these business activities.

As a knowledge institute, SOMO has extensive experience in drawing up ICSR covenants. For example, we contributed to the covenants for the banking sector, metal chains, clothing and textiles, pension funds and the insurance sector. SOMO's role in this is to advise and support civil society organizations, unions, companies and the government based on our knowledge and expertise in the field of due diligence, international standards (UNGPs and OECD guidelines) and CSR in the various sectors. SOMO does not see itself as an executing party in the covenants. We do see ourselves as an independent, social organization that is committed to achieving good, effective covenants by supporting the participating parties in the covenants.

The request of various parties (including ActionAid, the North Sea Foundation, FNV / CNV, Eneco and the SER) to support them with knowledge, expertise and advice (in all phases of the implementation of the ICSR covenant for the wind energy sector). covenant process, from exploration to negotiation / realization to implementation). SOMO has extensively researched the (wind) energy chain, including a recently conducted sector-mapping study for this project (Human rights in wind turbine supply chains 2018 <(>&<)> 2019 commissioned by ActionAid). Our experience with communities and workers who have been negatively impacted by the activities of companies in the wind energy chain can be put to good use.

For the period April to October 2020, we want to support the process by participating in the working groups due diligence and governance. We also want to be able to carry out short research assignments to provide the various parties with the most current and relevant figures, facts and information.

CO- Uganda The 23rd AU Summit (June, 2014; Malabo, Equatorial Guinea) endorsed the AU-NEPAD Agriculture Climate Change Framework Programme setting the target of 25 million farm households practicing Climate Smart Agriculture by 2025 (the AU 25x25 CSA Vision). To provide practical meaning to this vision, the NEPAD Agency has been implementing the AU-NEPAD Agriculture Climate Change Framework Programme since September 2013.  A core part of the programme is the NEPAD-iNGO Alliance for Climate Smart Agriculture in Africa which is a mechanism to scale up CSA in Africa through collaborative efforts and practical on-the-ground experience of Alliance members in agricultural research and implementation.

Convened by the NEPAD Agency, the Alliance is also made up of five INGO partners who serve as thecore implementing agencies for the Alliance: CARE, Catholic Relief Services, Concern Worldwide, Oxfam and World Vision. Two technical partners are represented by the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) and the African policy and advocacy NGO known as the Food, Agriculture and Natural Resources Policy Analysis Network (FANRPAN). The research consortium CGIAR, and the Forum for Agricultural Research in Africa (FARA) comprise the two remaining technical partners. The visionof the iNGO Alliance is to contribute 6 millionAfrican small-holder farming households with CSA practices by 2021 as part of the broader African Union goal of reaching the 25 x 25 vision.

In Uganda, with the leadership of Oxfam the Uganda iNGO CSA Alliance was launched in August 2015. Other members include CARE, Catholic Relief Services, Concern Worldwide, and World Vision.
