Living with elephants: Improving human-elephant coexistence in Thailands Western Forest Complex Corridor The goal of this two-year project is to promote coexistence of Asian elephants and humans (HECx) by working with the government and communities in the Western Forest Complex (WEFCOM) of Thailand, a mosaic of protected areas (PA) and regionally significant elephant conservation landscape. Project objectives include: 1) set baselines for the distribution, composition and occupancy of elephants and livestock in PAs, with a monthly monitoring program in place to inform an adaptive HECx approach; 2) build upon a socio-economic and HEC database through surveys and HEC monitoring and conduct annual meetings and awareness raising in two villages to develop a long-term HECx plan; and 3) implementation of elephant early warning systems in two villages. Project activities include: 1) conduct camera trap (CT) surveys to understand spatio-temporal distribution of elephants as well as livestock incursions into the PAs; 2) conduct CT surveys at watering holes and mineral licks in the PAs, as well as entry/exits used by elephants in four villages; 3) build a long-term individual ID database for elephants; 4) provide an elephant ID guide and training for PA managers and staff; and 5) analyze CT data on species movement and integrate it into mitigation strategies.

REPLACEMENT AWARDS FOR FY2019 - LAR GIBBON PROTECTION IN THAILAND'S WESTERN FOREST COMPLEX The purpose of this project is to protect and potentially increase the population of lar gibbon in the Huai Kha Khaeng Wildlife Sanctuary (HKK). The improved patrol system in Thailand is called Smart Patrols and refers to a system of patrols that have the following characteristics: they are well-equipped with proper uniforms, high-quality field gear and good rations; they are well trained in physical fitness, ways to handle arrests and other encounters in the field and Thai law around ranger patrols; they collect data on threats, patrol routes and wildlife in a systematic fashion (using software such as MIST and its successor SMART-Spatial Monitoring and Reporting Tool) and use this information in an adaptive management framework; patrolling happens at a high density over time and geographic space to ensure both deterrence, detection and capacity to respond to threats. Project objects are to, (1) maintain the Smart patrol system in Huai Kha Khaeng to the current intensity and coverage, and (2) implement a gibbon monitoring system in HKK where threats have been recorded

Support the Shift to Electric Mobility in the Seychelles Mitigate GHG emissions by accelerating the introduction of electric mobility in Seychelles through demonstration in public transportation, capacity building, and preparation of upscaling and replication through development of adequate electric mobility policies and financing concepts. Note: Disbursement data provided is cumulative and covers disbursement made by the project Agency. By transitioning from a mobility model based on imported fossil fuels to one based on renewable energy powered electric mobility, Seychelles stands to reap the following socio-economic benefits:  · Improved public health from reduced local air and noise pollution and a commensurate reduction in air pollution associated healthcare costs  · Development of new policy frameworks to underpin electric mobility is a key opportunity to improve road safety through ensuring better enforcement of existing policies as well as development of new ones to seal road safety regulation gaps   · The evaluation and development of strategies to ensure non-discriminatory access to opportunities created by electric mobility will go a long way in bridging the gender disparity in mobility from employment, investment and access of services.   · Reduced exposure to oil price volatility &amp; reduced oil imports (Improved energy security)  · By reducing consumers gasoline expenditures, more money will stay local and boost the local economy. This will result in new business/investment opportunities for financiers, local investors etc.  · Potential to reduce poverty and inequality by providing clean and affordable transport options  · Reduced congestion leading to better quality of life with less time spent in traffic and better accessibility to jobs, health care services by low-income groups.

In addition, by strengthening the conservation of critical coastal and marine ecosystems, including seagrass beds in the productive seascape (in Baie Ste Anne), the project will increase the economic benefits derived from the sustainable use of marine resources such as sustainable fisheries. Project activities to support Blue Financing mechanisms, the development of Nature based Solutions in tourism and small and medium enterprises, and the adoption of more sustainable tourism practices, will provide economic / business opportunities for local residents. The project will also ensure the full participation of women and youth in project activities, and ensure their access to socio-economic benefits and opportunities generated by project activities. Finally, by stimulating recovery (post COVID-19) and growth in a diversified economy, and supporting nature-based livelihoods, the project will deliver social and economic benefits to communities living within or adjacent to targeted marine protected areas in the Seychelles, thereby contributing to alleviating poverty and reducing the exposure of vulnerable communities to climate-related risks, and other social, economic or environmental shocks and disasters.

Somalia Bay Region Joint Response Somalia has been impacted by the worst drought in the last 40 years. The humanitarian situation in Somalia, especially the Bay region, has deteriorated  in recent months. The coping capacity of the communities is exhausted due to the combined impact of 4 consecutive seasons of poor rainfall, sharp increases in food prices, and conflict. WC/WRRS will implement a multisector intervention that provides WASH and FSL support to ensure access to food and water for the most affected HHs in 10 IDP sites in Baidoa district.
