Hoima District Union of PWDs (HUDIP) The Constitution of the republic of Uganda promulgated in 1995 aspires for the fair representation of marginalized groups (nationalobjective VI), and    in Article 1(4) categorically states that people shall express their will and consent on who shall govern them and how they should be governed, through regular, free and fair elections of their representatives or through referenda. PWDs havebeen elected and represented at all levels of decision-making from Local Council LCI to parliament in 2021 General elections. According to HUDIP, there are Six (6) Councilors representing PWDs in Hoima City (for the two Divisions and the City Council).  The amended Local Government Act 2019 approved Hoima to be become a city bring different opportunities and challenges for PWDs. The Local Government Act of 2019 empowers Districts and city divisions to enact ordinances and bye-laws to deliver on service delivery for the marginalized groups within their political jurisdiction.
However the elected PWDs Councilors havelimited knowledge, skills to effectively translate their election in satisfaction of issues that affect PWDs to feel fully represented in decision-making. Voice study 2018 recognizes that PWDs continue to face challenges which affect their effective participation in District development due to disability related stigma which stemming from their dependent nature and societal beliefs which promotes social exclusion within their communities, poor attitude and self-pity among PWDs which affects their effective participation in District development. The COVID-19 outbreak has created further isolation for persons with disabilities who often depend on their families and community for survival thus need empowered PWDs Leaders to amplify their voices.
Further analysis by HUDIP noted that Police personnel have poor attitude towards PWDs  when seeking redress e.g. women with disability in the face of sexual assault, accessing police services is difficult forPWDs. Courts of Law: There is difficulty in reporting cases concerning PWDs. PWDs are not educated and lawyers are often unwilling to take up these cases. Human rights organizations: Many don’t understand human rights of PWDs and therefore, there is need to create more awareness and even include a disability desk in these organizations.
Goal: To promote democracy and disability inclusive development in Hoima Oil City in Uganda by December 2023.
Objectives:
 To strengthen capacity of elected PWDs leaders to amplify their voices to influence policy making process in the new Oil City Hoima by December 2023.
 To empower duty bearers in the health, education, police, works and production to be disability inclusive and responsive by December 2023 to enact disability inclusive policies.

HUDIP aspires to see increased participation of elected leaders of PWDs in decision making at all political levels in the City.
Secondly Positive attitude from duty bearers towards disability mainstreaming in works, health, education, Production and judiciary sectors.

Cash and Livelihoods Support_CAMKID The Community Association for Knowledge In Development (CAMKID) is a local organisation providing services and supporting the rights of own-account workers in ethnic minority areas in Northern Laos. They work with labourers, especially women, who are affected by chemicals in banana plantations and with small-scale farmers/informal workers impacted from COVID. They will collaborate with the PTU and local government offices in Bokeo to implement this programme. CAMKID was also involved in the pilot phase. They will support the implementation of Outcomes 1 and 2 in Bokeo and will influence the Provincial People’s Assembly (PPA) of Bokeo province and national authorities for the protection of workers’ rights, focusing on healthcare, OSH, wage, income security, as well as child protection. They will also lobby private companies to ensure better social protection and decent work based on the implementation of existing legal frameworks.

The two associations have decided to collaborate on developing common objectives, in particular those that support a world based on relationships of solidarity and greater justice. The two associations agree that respect for Human Rights, including the Rights of Women and Children, forms part of their commitment, as well as respect for Social and Economic Rights for everyone. The Action that is subject to the present agreement is a contribution towards these objectives but it cannot be considered as the sole link that unites the three associations.

The partner  CAMKID  andOxfam-in-Laos undertake to build a relationship that reinforces each party’s work and skills, while developing each organisation’s respective strategies.

By way of an example, CAMKID  is interested in taking part in activities that heighten awareness among the Laos public, by sending personnel and/or equipment in relation to the issue concerned by the Action. CAMKID  would also like to take part in the discussions held by the Oxfam-in-Laos on strategic reflections connected with the action.

Oxfam undertakes to share information that may be useful for the missions of CAMKID  andto assist CAMKID  using methodological tools and supports.
CO- Oxfam OPT Women Rights Organisations play a crucial role in supporting the most vulnerable women, girls and communities in times of crisis, and they do this in a way that governments and larger institutions simply cannot as they are close to local context and the needs of their communities. Despite their central role in poverty alleviation, grassroots women’s rights organisations remain severely under-funded, with an average income of just $20,000 per year. This lack of resources binds them into a negative spiral where they are unable to invest in their own staff and organisations, limiting their ability to plan ahead and access sustained funding. The new GSF of Oxfam clearly highlights to transform the way it works, as well as what it supports. Devolving more resources and power to local organisations and disrupting the way we work as an INGO is core to the new vision for Oxfam.  This initiative would be one of the first deliberate commitments to test and learn how to deliver on this promise to purposefully move power and resources to the people weserve. This project aims to help grassroots women’s rights organisations (WROs) to gain access to flexible funding, allowing them to invest in the priority needs of women and girls, while becoming stronger and more sustainable. The project in oPt will work with 2-3 WROs in urban, peri-urban and rural areas.  It will offer small flexible funding of between £10,000 - £15,000 per organisation/ per year. Priority funding areas will be identified by the women’s organisations themselves, but a particular interest in how to support WROs in becoming more sustainable and will provide additional in-kind support. Additionally there is a need to integrate mental health and well-being into women’s empowerment work, as such those funds will support a small research project involving our WRO partners to explore a women’s empowerment approach to community mental health and well-being.
CO-IMPACT SME The overall goal of the initiative is to bring entrepreneurial solutions to Cambodia’s social and environmental challenges by strengthening impact-driven SMEs and their local support ecosystem.
The specific objectives (or outcomes) of the project are:
1. Impact SMEs grow their business and social and environmental impact
2. The enabling ecosystem for Impact SMEs improves
Expected impact
Overall, in 3 years, the initiative will have strengthened 30 impact-driven SMEs directly. These SMEs will be stronger and more resilientas a result of our work. They will grow their business, attract finance and thereby increase their impact on communities. Our influencing work aims to contribute to the achievement/adoption/enhancement of new policies or initiatives by government, banks or multinational which incentivize impact entrepreneurship in Cambodia.
The key performance indicators have been drafted and are presented below. The targets and the approach to measuring them will be further detailed as part of the inception phase of the project. See alsosection 6 on approach for monitoring, evaluation and learning.

Key activities
In summary the key interventions are:
1. To provide Business Development Services (BDS) to Impact SMEs: This is an annual process, starting with sourcing of SMEs from across Cambodia followed by selection. Each year 10 impact-driven SMEs are selected. The cohort of businesses receive various weeks of group training. An organizational capacity assessment will be conducted with each business resulting in a set of prioritized areas of improvement.Platform Impact (and if needed external) consultants provide tailored (partially on-site) support to each business.
2. To facilitate SMEs with Access to Finance (A2F) to grow: For those SMEs selected under activity 1, specific support is provided to make them investment ready. Each of the SMEs will be introduced to impact investors in a demo-day setting. The most serious, diligent and high potential companies empowered through our Program will be selected to receive our further support to raise funds from Impact Investors.
3. To facilitate SME and policy-maker engagement to improve policies (Enabling Ecosystem): This starts with identifying key issuesfor Impact SMEs that can be improved with better policies and identifying those policies that can be influenced/improved during theproject. Engagement between SMEs and policy-makers ( Inclusive Business/ Green Economy) are facilitated to initiate an ongoing dialogue. Where possible, specificproposals for policy improvements are delivered to policy-makers and subsequent commitments are tracked, by Oxfam and partners. Additionally, engagement with banks and large companies follows a similar pattern of bringing the needs ofImpact SMEs forwardand engaging in dialogue about what they can do to improve the ecosystem.

RVO IMVO Pension Conv. PAX The Pension Convenant seeks to support Pension Funds to implement OECD orientations regarding ESG.
The two track approach has a general track where all Dutch pension funds are targetted and a second track to undertake case studies and feed into the general track.

The Convenant will work with a Steering Group and several working groups, notably for Monitoring, Case Studies and Instruments.
The Convenant support facility is not a project but a facility where Oxfam Novib, on behalf of participating NGOs and trade unions, administers the facility. On an equal basis, Oxfam Novib also participates in the implementation of the Convenant.

The participating NGOs bring their specific knowledge and information about human rights (including children's rights, gender equality and land rights),
climate change, nature, the fight against corruption, health (including
access to medicines) and animal welfare in the local context.
The NGOs will contribute through
- to share their specific, available expertise with the Parties on, for example, building civil society in developing countries; ESG risks and impacts, general ESG policies and procedures for ESG due diligence; contacts with governments in unstable, conflict-affected or quasi-uncontrolled areas; contacts with the government of states where frequent seriousimpacts occur; protection of (human rights) activists; collecting local evidence with regard to ESG violations; prioritizing risks based on knowledge of (future) international standards and their global and international overview, perspective and network; improving the situation of the victims;
- involving local stakeholders and colleague and partner organizations;
- act as an informal sounding board for sensitive or complex issues and suggest possible solutions to obstacles faced by the Parties;

IMPART This project aims to increase the social and economic inclusion of LGBTQI people and communities in Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Philippines and Thailand through engaging the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the private sector/businesses, and promote diversity and inclusion as reflected in their policies, practices, spaces and activities. Engaging the ADB on LGBTQI is strategic as changes happening in their headquarters can redound to all countries where they operate. Likewise, continuing engagements with the private/business sector is necessary, since evidence shows that LGBTQI people continue to experience exclusion in the workplace. The target solutions include expanding advocacy, awareness raising, community-led research/data generation, capacity strengthening and ensuring that LGBTQI communities are meaningfully involved.

APCOM and its country partners will implement advocacy and awareness raising on SOGIESC while also using the World Bank/UNDPLGBTQI Inclusion Index, and push for LGBTQI inclusion targeting the ADB resident missions in the five countries. Moreover, engagements with private sector players who were reached during Finance Inc. pilot project on LGBTQI inclusion will be expanded to other companies and the Chambers of Commerce in the respective countries. Aside from country level interventions, APCOM and its partners will also participate in relevant regional and international venues where LGBTQI economic and social inclusion can be advocated for.
