F.a: ARO Regional Thematic Assessments The thematic assessment improves the planning of FCA’s operations and ensures that the thematic context where the work is/will be undertaken is analysed hand in hand with FCA’s strategy. The outcome of the thematic assessment should be a clear picture 
of how FCA’s thematic priorities, including synergies between themes, can best be achieved in the operating context and what adjustments will be needed in our own programming. The thematic assessment can be utilised to aid in decision-making in mainly tw
o situations:• When FCA is planning to establish a new operations in a new geographic area, or developing the programme, e.g. new initiatives within thematic areas, and• If the current FCA country programme or geographic operations need to be reassesse
d and possibly repositioned.The overall objective is to improve effectiveness, quality and impact of programming by conducting thematic assessments to be able to develop the thematic focus in respective countries of the regional programme.   Activities: Or
ganising and facilitating thematic assessments in Right to Education, Right to Peace and Right to Livelihood in the programme countries. The assessments will be conducted by FCA/a consultant
Institutional cooperation instrument: technical assistance consultancy Instituutioiden välisen kehitysyhteistyön instrumentin tukikonsultti Technical assistance consultancy to assist the Ministry for Foreign Affairs in the management of the Institutional Cooperation Instrument (ICI) projects. ICI refers to the twinning projects between Finnish government agencies with development country gover
nment agencies. Technical assistance is mostly administrative-technical quality assurance work. The aim is to reduce administrative workload in the MFA and to improve the quality of the projects. Seurantakonsultin toimenkuva koostuu Instituutioiden välisen kehitysyhteistyön instrumenttia hyödyntävien suomalaisten valtion virastojen toteuttamiin hankkeisiin annettavasta teknisestä avusta (tuki suunnittelulle toteutukseen ja seurantaan).  Instit
uutioiden välisen kehitysyhteistyön instrumentti (IKI) on lanseerattu 2008 ja lukuisia hankkeita on käynnissä alueosastoilla. IKI-hankkeet ovat melko pieniä ja niiden suunnittelu ja seuranta on työlästä. Tämä hanke edistää hallintotehtävien ul
koistamista siten että ministeriölle jäävät keskeiset päätöksentekovastuut mutta muut rutiinimaiset hallinnolliset toimet on ulkoistettu mahdollisimman laajasti seurantakonsultin tarjoamaksi tueksi. Hankkeen tavoitteena (impact)  on kehitysmaiden v
irastojen parantunut kapasiteetti  ja (outcome) edistää IKI-hankkeiden laatua ja vaikuttavuutta.  Hankkeen strategiana on käyttää yhtä konsulttiyritystä tarjoamaan hallinnollisia palveluita ministeriölle sekä tukemaan suomalaisia hankkeita toteutt
avia virastoja. Aiempi kokkemus IKI-konsultin käytöstä on hyvin positiivinen erityisesti suomalaisten virastojen näkökulmasta. IKI-konsultin työhön käytetään max 150.000 ? vuosina 2019-21.
F.a: Organizational development and training project of Malawi National Association of the Deaf FAD: Organisational Development and Training Project of Malawi National Association of the Deaf. WHAT: The project supports organizational capacity of Malawi National Association of the Deaf (MANAD). WHY: The opportunities for deaf in Malawi to participate
 are not equal to those of the hearing population. The status of Sign language as the first language of the deaf is not recognized, although Malawi has ratified the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Deaf are poorer and more uneducat
ed than the hearing population. There are still strong prejudices in relation to deafness. HOW: By supporting MANAD’s organizational capacity the membership of the association is activated and influencing decision making they can demand for the materiali
zation of the human rights. Attitudes are changed through information sharing and sensitization of the society. The project benefits mainly the deaf, their families, and the national association, which has an opportunity to improve its organizational capac
ity. PARTNER ORGANISATION: The project implemented by Malawi National Association of the Deaf MANAD.

Helsinki Prosessi / Brookings Institutions Seminar;  experiences from Helsinki Process in implementing the post-2015 agenda Helsinki Prosessi / Brookings Institutions  ?seminaari; HP:n kokemusten hyödyntäminen post-2015 agendan toimeenpanossa Helsinki Process on Globalisation and Democracy was launched in 2002 as a joint initiative by the governments of Finland and Tanzania. Its wider phase was discontinued in 2008 when the final report of the process was submitted to the UN Secretary General. 
Later on the focus has been on some separate global issues such as the international investment regime as a most recent exercise. As a follow up to the Helsinki Process a joint seminar will be organized with the Brookings Institutions in March-April in Was
hington D.C. The objective will be to examine identify and propose how the Helsinki Process approaches and experiences may facilitate the future implementation of the emerging post-2015 agenda for sustainable development. The three issues especially linkin
g Helsinki Process to the new sustainable development agenda are mobilizing political will multi-stakeholder approach and mobilizing financial resources. Helsinki-prosessi käynnistettiin Suomen ja Tansanian yhteisestä aloitteesta v. 2002. Sen laajempi vaihe päättyi v. 2008 loppuraportin luovuttamiseen YK:n pääsihteerille. Tämän jälkeen toimintaa on jatkettu suuntaamalla huomio yksittäisten globaal
ien ongelmien ratkaisujen helpottamiseen monitoimijadialogin kautta viimeksi kansainvälisiä investointeja koskien. Helsinki-prosessi on parantunut globaalihallintoa tarjoamalla avoimen ja epävirallisen foorumin monitoimijadialogille. Erityisesti sen pon
nistelut ovat kohdentuneet etelän ja pohjoisen välisen dialogin vahvistamiseen ja kehitysmaiden aseman parantamiseen kansainvälisessä päätöksenteossa. Keväällä 2015 yhteistyössä amerikkalaisen Brookings-instituutin kanssa Washington D.C:ssä j
ärjestettävä kansainvälinen seminaari pyrkii selvittämään millä tavalla Helsinki-prosessin toimintamallia ja kokemuksia voitaisiin hyödyntää uuden post-2015 kestävän kehityksen agendan toimeenpanossa. Seminaari tulee ennen muuta kohdentumaan H
elsinki-prosessissa keskeisesti esille olleisiin teemoihin poliittisen tahdon ja rahoituksen mobilisointi sekä monitoimijamallin käytöstä saadut kokemukset.

Supporting the work of a gender adviser at the regional Office VÄLIME/YK:n ihmisoik.valt. Beirutin alueell. tston toiminnan tukeminen Finland has started supporting the work of a gender adviser at the regional Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights OHCHR located in Beirut in year 2010. Adviser's work aims to enhance and pormote the women's human rights and fundamental freedoms.
 Adviser has for the past two years offered support to the governments international organizations and civil society organizations and ensured that all OHCHR activities in the region have women's rights as cross cutting objectives. The work has started wel
l and recent political events have paved way to new opportunities in the adviser's work field. At the same time it is clear that challenges remain. The unit for the Middle East and North Africa propose to continue the support for the gender adviser's work 
for the next three years. Suomi aloitti vuonna 2010 Lähi-idässä ja Pohjois-Afrikassa yhteistyön YK:n ihmisoikeusvaltuutetun toimiston (OHCHR) kanssa rahoittamalla Beirutin alueelliseen toimistoon tasa-arvoneuvonantajan jonka työn tavoitteeksi asetettiin naisten ihmisoikeuksien
 ja perusvapauksien toteutumisen edistäminen ja turvaaminen. Neuvonantaja on kahden vuoden aikana tarjonnut asiantuntija-apua alueen hallituksille kansainvälisille järjestöille ja kansalaisyhteiskunnan toimijoille sekävarmistanut että naisten oikeude
t toteutuvat läpileikkaavana teemana kaikissa OHCHR:n hankkeissa. Työ on lähtenyt hyvin käyntiin ja viimeaikaiset poliittiset tapahtumat alueella ovat tarjonneet uusia mahdollisuuksia tasa-arvoneuvonantajan toimikenttään. Samaan aikaan on kuitenkin n
ähtävissä että haasteet jatkuvat naisten oikeuksien toteutumisen osalta. Lähi-idän ja Pohjois-Afrikan yksikkö esittää neuvonantajan työn tukemisen jatkamista kolmella vuodella.YK:n ihmisoikeusvaltuutetun toimiston tasa-arvoneuvonantajan työn tuk
eminen on tärkeä osa Suomen tukea arabimaiden naisten poliittisten taloudellisten ja yhteiskunnallisten oikeuksien edistämiseksi. Ihmisoikeudet demokratia ja oikeusvaltiokehitys ovat nousseet päivänpoliittisiksi aiheiksi useissa maissa ja ne ovat myö
s Suomen kehityspoliittisen toimenpideohjelman keskiössä sekä osa Suomen profiilia Pohjois-Afrikan ja Lähi-idän alueella.
NEFCO Nordic Energy Efficiency and Humanitarian Support Initiative for Ukraine NEFCO:n Pohjoismainen energiatehokkuuden ja humanitaarisen tuen aloite Ukrainassa The Nordic Environment Finance Corporation (NEFCO) is an international finance institution established in 1990 by the five Nordic countries. To date NEFCO has financed a wide range of environmental projects in Central and Eastern European countries includi
ng Russia Belarus and Ukraine. The Nordic Ministers of foreign affairs decided in their meeting in 2014 to establish a Nordic energy efficiency and humanitarian support initiative with NEFCO. The Initiative has so far been funded by Finland Norway and Swed
en. Finland has supported the initiative with 3 million euros. Part of the Finnish contribution (EUR 500000) was used for the common Nordic initiative through untied funds.The aim of the fund is to address energy efficiency and energy savings in municipal 
services in vulnerable and affected areas in Eastern and Southern Ukraine. The support was focused on social infrastructure (schools kindergartens and health services facilities). Another part (EUR 2500000) of the Finnish contribution will be used for the 
delivery and erection of a prefabricated school building for est. 240 children in Kherson region that is overstressed due to a significant influx of Internally Displaced Persons. Due to funding gap 250 000 euros is allocated to replenish the Nordic Initiat
ive. Additional 250 000 euro will be allocated for the procurement of necessary safety system as well as heating and cooling systems for the school.

jällä Valko-Venäjällä ja Ukrainassa. Pohjoismaiset ulkoministerit sopivat v. 2014 uuden Ukrainaan suuntautuvan energiatehokkuuden ja humanitaarisen avun rahaston perustamisesta. Rahastoon ovat tähän mennessä liittyneet Suomen lisäksi Ruotsi ja Nor
ja. Suomi myönsi alkuvuodesta rahastoon 3 milj. euroa josta 05 milj.  euroa suunnattiin sitomattomana ja käytetiin Itä- ja Etelä-Ukrainassa sijaitsevien kunnallisten rakennusten (esim. terveyskeskukset lastentarhat ja koulut) ja infrastruktuurin kunnos
tukseen sekä jälleenrakennukseen energiatehokkuutta painottaen. Rakennuksissa on vaihdettu ovia ja ikkunoita sisä- ja katuvalaistusta parannettu ja lämminvesilaitteita asennettu.Rahoituksesta 25 milj. euroa myönnettiin tilapäisen koulurakennuksen han
kintaan toimitukseen ja asennukseen Hersonin alueelle jossa koululle on tarvetta maan sisäisen pakolaisliikehdinnän vuoksi. Koulun avulla turvataan 240 lapselle mahdollisuus oppimiseen konfliktiolosuhteista huolimatta.Yhteispohjoismainen rahasto tarvitse
e lisärahoitusta uusien hankkeiden toteuttamiseen. Kouluhankkeeseen tarvitaan lisärahoitusta paloturvallisuuden varmistamiseen sekä lämmitys- ja ilmastointijärjestelmän hankintaan. Yhteensä 500 000 euron lisämyönnöllä täydennetään Suomen osuu
tta sitomattomassa rahastossa 250 000 eurolla sekä kouluhankkeessa 250 000 eurolla.

F.a: Campaigning for Core Labour Standards + Quality Public Services in ADB The project ensures that public sector unions will be able to understand Asian Development Bank (ADB) funded large scale infrastructure projects and to monitor that CLSs are respected at all phases. The aim is to ensure that the infrastructure will produce
 quality public services, and these services will have decent workplaces.ADB’s megaprojects employ hundreds of thousands of workers. Trade union rights and decent work principles are not always respected and fully applied in these projects. Neither can o
ne guarantee that the new infrastructure will result in producing quality public services and decent work opportunities. Decent work, ILO core labour standards and quality public services will reduce poverty and will promote the achievement of Millenium De
velopment Goals.In every cooperation country, operational capacity, organizing and networking of the unions is strengthened. In India, the lobby strategies of the unions are strengthened, so that basic labour rights are taken into account already at the pl
anning phase of ADB energy sector projects. ADBs operations in the energy sector are also targeted in Indonesia. In Mongolia, a partnership agreement is made with ADB so that the privatization of services is tackled and quality public services are promoted
 i.a. through a joint research project. In the Philippines, quality water services are promoted as well as partnerships for public service providers (Public-Public Partnerships). The realization of labour rights through the government, worker organizations
 and companies are promoted. In Tonga, the aim is to ensure that the reform of the Tonga Public Service Enterprise leads to positive developments for workers and communities.       The beneficiaries are the representatives and union management of the membe
r organization sin the PSI target countries.  Other beneficiaries include the international trade unions coordinating the ADB work (in particular BWI, UNI and ITF) as well as central NGO networks. In a wider perspective, the project benefits the public sec
tor workers whose work, benefits and rights are threatened due to ADB projects. The partners are Public Services International (PSI) and their affiliated public sector unions in Tonga, Mongolia, the Philippines, Indonesia and India.
