Promoting Palestinian dialogue and consensus The project aims to promote and support Palestinian reconciliation by continuing an informal framework for mid-level Palestinian political actors to discuss and produce concrete solutions to overcome the obstacles in the formal reconciliation process. The 
informal nature of the project allows maintaining dialogue and contributing to the activation of the official reconciliation track also during times of stagnation and impasse by creating a more positive atmosphere with regard to reconciliation and unity an
d demonstrating that progress is possible and consensus can be reached among a diverse group of actors. The different types of dialogue workshops will convene Palestinian mid-level political actors from across the political and geographical spectrum in fac
e-to-face interaction thus building confidence and trust among them. This will contribute to overall unity among the Palestinians. The diversity of participants broadens the base of actors involved in reconciliation related discussions thus contributing to
 a more participatory overall process. With the aim of increasing local ownership of the project results the continuation project will place emphasis on advocacy efforts by the stakeholder group helping to constructively channel popular calls for unity. Th
e continuation builds on an ongoing project by CMI which has been implemented with the same target group. As in the previous phase the project will be implemented in cooperation with a local partner and in close coordination with Egypt the country mainly r
esponsible for mediating the formal reconciliation process.

Support to UNEP Seminar on Environmental Law and Diplomacy The Ministry has funded previously the Environmental Law and Diplomacy -course that has been organized by the University of Eastern Finland in collaboration with UNEP. The Ministry has been satisfied with the course but due to the change of the legal statu
s of Finnish universities the organizer will now be selected by using open tendering process. In addition to teaching environmental law the course aims to foster contacts between developing and industrialised countries and thus support international enviro
nmental negotiations. The course will particularly focus on the synergies between the biodiversity conventions. The course is aimed at experienced officials who take part in international environmental negotiations.
Local Cooperation Fund (LCF) in Indonesia For the first year the activity will be focused on  development of 315 ha of didesa Batu Sawar by applying the model management (silviculture) of forest plantations covering nursery land preparation planting and maintenance. Beside that the process HTR are

Local Cooperation Fund (LCF) in Kenya Vulnerability to global climate change especially poor rains that can hardly support production of exotic cereals especially if production is entirely dependent on rain fed system is becoming a perennial phenomenon in Sub Saharan Africa. Hunger continues t
o be a global tragedy. The Kenyan economy has and is still largely dependent on agriculture. The high cost production system and reliance on rain fed agriculture in the face of global climate change has therefore to change and give way to a different appro
ach in agriculture to guarantee sustainable food production by embracing low external input for sustainable agriculture. This implies that to achieve food security a change of strategy is imperative. The options available range from introducing irrigation 
systems using improved seed varieties that can both tolerate moisture stress and withstand pest menace as well as promote production of traditional food crops that withstand moisture stress and other adverse conditions. The project will promote traditional
 crops by not only providing the technology seed and extension services but capacitating farmers to the level that they have solid structures such as farmers marketing federation. The project will intensify production of traditional drought tolerant food c
rops with an agribusiness perspective to augment food security efforts in the country. Project Goal:  to contribute significantly to attain the objects of Millennium Development Goal number one by alleviating the suffering of the food insecure communities 
in Gilgil District by promoting the production of traditional crops as a sustainable means of meeting increasing demand for food while improving farmers' incomes through sustainable agricultural production. Project objectives: 1. increase traditional food 
crops production by increasing acreage under this crops by 600 acres at end of three years 2. inject an agribusiness approach to farming among the groups targeted with a view of making them competitive in the market place by providing training on agribusin
ess 3. to link and network the target farmers federations to markets and other agencies
Water and Sanitation Project III The planned project consists of rehabilitation expanding and installation of water networks and main water pipelines. It also includes the establishment and training of a Joint Water and Sanitation Department JWSD. JWSD will be responsible of managing oper

Local Cooperation Fund (LCF) in Kenya Forest ecosystems like other natural resources in ASALs are more vulnerable and susceptible to both natural and human related degradation. ASAL are characterised by high level of poverty over-exploitation of natural resources since the people draws their l
ivelihoods directly from the natural resources base.As the availability and quality of natural resources decline due to the natural and human-induced pressures in this area so does the viability and security of their livelihoods. With limited capacities an
d resources at their disposal to respond to stresses such as droughts famine and floods their ability to meet basic needs and move out of poverty is constrained. Sustainable management of Kibauni catchment requires a cocktail of approaches and intervention
s beyond what has been supported in the past. Demand for wood as end use energy (fuel wood and charcoal) for domestic use and for construction material remains as one of the key challenge to sustainable management of Kibauni catchment. Therefore future sup
port need to utilize past gains of enhanced community participation in natural resources management and governance as a platform to support strategies to avert dependence of the communities on the fragile ecosystem for wood and wood energy. This will be th
rough interventions further strengthen community governance structures promote adoption of on-farm agro-forestry systems woodlot establishment on farm and in schools adoption of energy efficient cooking stoves nature based enterprises and capacity building
. This will ensure sustainable production and utilization of wood on-farm and schools and therefore alleviating community pressure on the Kibauni forest for provision of forest products. Furthermore the initiatives are also aimed at improving the livelihoo
ds of the community and therefore enhancing their resilience to the effects of climate change.

Building the Western Saharan Civil Society of Tomorrow Western Sahara has been living admist conflict for several decades. The Western Saharan people have been geographically divided during this time with a majority living in refugee camps in Algeria some in the occupied territories of Western Sahara and yet o
thers in the diaspora in various countries in Europe and Cuba amongst others.The targert group of the project are the young people. Young Saharawis have  little contact to those living elsewhere nord o they have the capacity to build a joint future Western
 Saharan society. The youth living in the camps have a dire  outlook for their future and poor employment opportunities of the youth pose a severe challenge. Frustration is widespread amongst the young people. In the project young people organize workshops
 for other young people. The workshops provide the participants with tools and capabilities for societal participation and a basis for building a joint Saharawi civil society.  Youth from the camps occupied territories and the diaspora especially European 
nations and Cuba will participate in the workshops. The project is carried out in cooperation with the umbrella organization for the Western Saharan students UESARIO. The project builds on UESARIO's previous experience with similar workshop activities and 
models that have alreaday proven to function well will be developed further. The workshops deal with the topic os strenthening the role of women in the future Western Sahara. Gender equality will be considered both thematically as well as with ensuring a c
ertain percentage of female participants. The workshops also deal with youth leadership and political education. The moderators of the workshops are all young themselves. However also older political actors will visit the workshops furthuring intergenerati
onal dialogue.

Kenya: Refocusing small arms interventions on impact: Connecting global policy to community driven approaches to security At a formal level Kenya qualifies as a champion of SALW control. However there is ample evidence that international and national SALW interventions and goals in Kenya have not  addressed the problem sufficiently locally especially in pastoralist areas wher
e communities who are nomadic have to seek out and share limited pasture and water resources bringing them into conflict with each other. The intention is to help communities achieve their rights to security currently under threat from the proliferation an
d misuse of small arms and light weapons (SALW) by ensuring that the communities themselves are at the heart of the prioritisation planning implementation and monitoring and evaluation of the programme.  As well as being of immediate benefit to the target 
communities by developing credible evidence from these practical efforts the programme also intends to inform national and international processes. Across two locations in Kenya this project aims to address some of the factors contributing to insecurity wi
th a view to make a positive contribution to meeting the national development agenda under the following areas: 1.Enhancement of security along the borders to address proliferation of small arms across the borders, 2.Institutionalising national and inter-c
ommunity dialogue in order to build harmony among ethnic racial and other interest groups, 3.Deepening policy legal and institutional reform for improved enforcement of law and order. During the two yearlong project several seminars forums and workshops wi
ll be organized on security and monitoring the use of SALW for both local people and authorities. Theinteraction between local population and local authorities will be strengthened. The aim is also to develop locally ways to reduce the proliferation and mi
suse of SALW. During the program interaction between the local beneficiaries and international experts on SALW will be organized. The program will be implemented by an NGO spezialized on arms control with close cooperation with local Kenyan partners. http:

Local Cooperation Fund (LCF) in Moldova A longer-term training program is needed to impact the quality of journalism practices in the Republic of Moldova. The concept of the Chisinau School of Advanced Journalism follows the experience of other successful schools of journalism teaching practical
 journalism in the conditions close to a real life newsroom. This way the young journalists will be ready to enter the work force able to practice quality journalism and inform the audiences in a professional manner. Ten-month-long courses for 15 to 20 asp
iring journalists from Moldova are organized aiming at preparing the universal journalist who is able to adapt in the modern media environment and ready for the challenges of the profession by knowing and practicing all aspects of their profession.The obje
ctives of having the Chisinau School of Advanced Journalism at the Journalism Center are two-fold: As media remains a major source of information for the population in Moldova a better informed public can be achieved through having professional journalists
 informing the readers and viewers in Moldova. Also as a result of the School of Journalism activity in previous years IJC sees the graduating journalists producing noticeably better journalism products. IJC is following the career paths of these graduates
 and it sees that they are hired by the media gladly and are also more active professionally coming up with new projects and ideas. Having such a base of young and well trained journalists involved in the media in Moldova ICJ would like to give them modest
 support to implement new ideas in the changing media environment.
Youth Protecting Our Environment Environmental consciousness in Matagalpa and whole Nicaragua is very weak. People have no knowledge on the effects of environmental problems and about what they can do to improve the state of the environment. In the project there will be an environmental e
ducation course for the 5th and 6th grade students and for two environmental youth groups in  two poor neighborhoods. The purpose of the training is to increase environmental consciousness. In this second phase of the project the activities will be amplifi
ed in four new schools in the area. In addition to that the activities will be continued in the six schools that were involved in the project earlier and also the two neighborhoods. By including the six schools already participating in the project it will 
be possible to make good use of the previous experiences and better support the the continuity of the activities once the project ends. The environmental education will be integrated in the local education authority's national curriculum and will be amplif
ied in the other schools in the area.
