LIW IMVO award 2019 Agric. Negot. LIW / ICN would like to participate in the negotiations for the Agriculture and Horticulture covenant, based on the specific knowledge that we have around the seeds theme. In recent years we have regularly reported on child labor, violation of labor rights and non-payment of minimum wages in the seed sector in India. This concerns both cotton seeds and vegetable seeds, the latter having a direct link with agriculture and horticulture. Many Dutch seed companies are involved in this seed production. The Netherlands is one of the leaders worldwide when it comes to the production of vegetable seeds.

India is an important country when it comes to seed production. Following the recent report 'Remedies for Indian seed workers insight?' we have been asked by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to provide input for the Agriculture and Horticulture covenant. We will gladly continue to do so in the coming months, together with the other parties, to see whether specific attention could be paid to the seed sector in the future covenant.

Our expertise is therefore mainly in the seed sector in India, where we have local contacts with NGOs and researchers. We have issued reports on thissector in the past and will also present new research in the coming year.

LIW /ICN has experience with covenants. We are a party to the Clothing and Textile Covenant and are involved in the negotiation of the natural stone covenant. We are an active NGO participant in both covenants.

Our expertise lies primarily in the social effects of production chains, particularly in India and other South Asian countries. Child labor, forced labor, caste discrimination, gender discrimination: these are themes that we as an organization deal with. In addition, we also have experience with thetheme of access to remedies. Under the Clothing and Textile Covenant there is currently a joint project in South India with a number of companies and a local organization '#Remedies towards a Better Workplace #. We can also use this experience and share itwith the participants in the Agriculture and Horticulture Covenant. In addition,we do research, publish reports and work on influencing policy towards government and a social dialogue towards companies, togetherwith local organizations. Our local network is extensive: we have many contacts with local NGOs, trade unions and research organizations.
ORAM - Nampula ORAM - Rural Association for Mutual Support, Mozambique

A non-profit organisation created in 1992 by members of the Mozambican Christian Council. It seeks to support rural communities,in particular smallholder peasants,with the legalisation of their agriculturalland, management of natural resources and other rural enterprises. It has a director,assisted by a board of executive directors.ORAM started with three employees but now has over 200 staff with activities in seven of 10 provinces.

The post-war resettlement of displaced people was carried out without major problems and conflicts, without
costs for public administration systems, using customary systems of ownership. This served to illustrate of
resilience of these systems. Nevertheless, thePeace and Reconstruction Commission of the Mozambique Christian Council did come across some land conflicts during its resettlement work of displaced people. This was considered a very sensitive question and the Council opted to create an NGO to deal withland issues. Thus, in 1992, ORAM
(Rural Association for Mutual Support), which participated in this study, was created. Its 10 founding members
belonged to the Mozambique Christian Council and the initial funding came from Christian Aid, whose first
president was then also president of the Christian Council.

Saving our Daughters in Thailand The Saving our Daughter project has as the overall objective to protect Thai and Lao girls along border against sexual abuse and exploitation.

The action will directly contribute to this but will have greater value as a pilot project that can be replicated elsewhere.In terms of geography and affluence, Thailand sits between Malaysia and Singapore on the one hand, and Cambodia, Laos and Myanmar on the other.  This potent combination together with lax enforcement of laws against human trafficking and prostitution make Thailand a source, destination and transit country for trafficking linked to sexual exploitation

Specific Objectives of the project:

1. Prevention systems are established and operational in strategic areas
Strategic areas are chosenfor the action. The border areas where the action will be implemented are the 3 main border crossings of Mukdahan, Nong Khai and Ubon Ratchathani. Nong Khai and neighboring, more populous Udon Thani have thriving entertainment scenes, where many women endup working in the sex trade, so cooperationwith businesses will focus on these two areas.  A large number of Thai girls, who end up being trafficked come from Udon Thani, Ubon Ratchathani and Srisaket, so schools in those three provinces will be targetedfor prevention activities among Thais.

2. Victims are protected in line with their rights and needs
Protection needs to take account of the difficult situation girls known to have been trafficked face when they return home, the traumatic nature of their experience and the need for viable income-earning opportunities.

Target groups:
1. 4,500 female students in 15 secondary schools in Srisaket, Ubon Ratchathani and Udon Thani
2. Lao or other foreign girls under the age of 18 who cross the borderinto Thailand
3. Thai girls under 18 who get caught up in trafficking
4. Police,immigration and multi-disciplinary team personnel in Mukdahan, Nong Khai and Ubon Ratchathani
5. 20 entertainment venues in Nong Khai and Udon Thani

Oxfam Intermon and SOMO aim to achieve that more women, youth and other citizens benefit from higher quality and quantity of finance for development, an enhanced fiscalsystem and a sustainable and inclusive financial and corporate sector, tackling extreme inequality.

The Moroccan Ministry of Finance, parliamentarians (especially the Finance Committee) and the Second Chamber are more accountable to the citizens in the adoption of the budget law and the monitoring and evaluation of its performance and access to budget information
2. Strengthened CSOs:
Associations, trade unions, cooperatives, social movements and activists and media include public finances and the socio-economic and territorial inequalities.
3. Increased citizens' voice:
Local authorities and local elected officials are receptiveto strategic interests and practical needs of marginalized people (in the regions) through participatory channels/mechanisms (at local / regional levels) to ensure real public participation.

The intervention strategies are as follow;
Mobilization, Research, raising Awareness, Capacity Building, Lobby <(>&<)> Advocacy, Alliance Building, Networking, Public Outreach etc.
To achieve this long-term outcome in Morocco, Oxfam works together with the followingpartners:
