CO-7155 Oxfam in collaboration with African Economic Research Consortium (AERC) are implementing a collaborative research and policy outreach on the gendered impact of COVID 19 on livelihoods in Africa. The objective of this project is to conduct high quality policy research using novel and innovative approaches, that can shed light on the gendered impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on livelihoods in selected African countries including Kenya, Ethiopia, South Africa, Zambia, and Nigeria. The research takes special emphasis on vulnerable groups who bear the brunt disproportionately, economically, physiologically, and emotionally.

The objective of this Project isto conduct high quality policy research using novel and innovative approaches, including data collection methods that can shed light on the gendered impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on livelihoods in selected African countries with special emphasis on vulnerable groups who bear the brunt disproportionately, economically, physiologically and emotionally.

The project aims to:
 Evaluate short-medium and long-term macroeconomic consequences of the pandemic on African economies, including the impact on food insecurity, malnutrition and hunger;
 Examine gendered socio-economic impacts of the pandemic in order to inform, inspire and influence gender transformative policy responses that can benefit larger swathes of the population – in particular, women, vulnerable communities and gender diverse people;
 Use the evidence to build the capacity of researchers and institutions in target countries for longer term, sustainable policy changes that address root causes of the pandemic’s unequal impact, including gender inequality; and,
 Build a network of stakeholders (policy, research, and practice institutions and individuals) that can continue to track the pandemic’s impacts and design and advocate for practical, gender-transformative solutions, for building back better post-COVID.

The project targets 6 case studies and continuous policy engagement to be undertaken in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Outputs to be produced under each project component over a two-year period are 6 publications in refereed journals or chapters in book volumes published by leading publishers. The project will also yield enhanced technical skills on impact analysis and feminist advocacy for Africa-based policy analysts and advisors.
Young activists creating space in LBN As part of The Socio-Economic Justice Initiative-MAAN  strategy to Build the accountability and citizen engagement culture, MAAN will develop and implement an “Activist Academy” for cross-regional Lebanese youth, to foster a culture of citizen accountability by building the capacity of young activists through workshops and engagement opportunities with other activists and practitioners. Utilizing our network of over 20 civil society experts, academics, and consultants, MAAN will outreach and select youthbetween the ages of 18-25 based on various criteria to commit and participate in the citizenship building sessions. The project aims to catalyze not only the interest amongst youth to engage, but also to capacitate their activism spirit to become more efficient, sustainable and resilient. The Academy agenda will consist of weekly workshops and seminars divided between knowledge and skills sessions targeting youth, to build a popular and public movement advocating for changes through policy development inLebanon. The lack of knowledge and tools is limiting the efficiency of their activism, hence the need to support the Lebanese youth and strengthen their knowledge and guide their activism to become more sustainable and resilient in their pursuit of an equitable system.

HO-PROSELL 503001 A number of factors negatively impacts livelihoods in Taraba state, primary among them are human insecurity challenges and climate change.  Human insecurity challenges and political instability result from prolonged skirmishes of ethno-religious and landresource-based conflicts, which are exacerbated by an influx of internally displaced persons (IDPs) fleeing the Boko Haram insurgencyin Northeast Nigeria, entering Taraba by way of neighbouring Adamawa state. Climatological uncertainties aggravate an already vulnerable agricultural system, as temperatures and the rainfall pattern and distribution become less predictable, and communities face cycles of flooding and drought which negatively decrease production and shut down market opportunities along commodity value chains, thereby placing the Global Acute Malnutrition status of the state within the stressed threshold.  As such, the natural resources which poor people in rural areas depend on for their food security # land and water # are degrading in quality against a background of rising competition for their possession . The state#s population of over two million  now live in communities that are experiencing increasedexposure to stressed food consumption status and their livelihoods is at crisis level,with levels of stunting in children at 43% (higher than the Nigerian average of 37%).

The population of Taraba State is heavilyreliant on the agricultural economy, though thereis little reliable data to indicate exact numbers (one estimate is 80% ofthe population).   The Taraba State Government has identified a number of challenges to food production levels, including: lack ofinfrastructure such as warehouses/silos and market facilities; inadequate supply and distribution of improved agro-inputs; lack of lack of organised markets and weak private sector participation in agricultural development activities; and prevalence of farmer-herder conflicts.

In the light of the above, Oxfam proposes to grow a resilient commodity value chain and rural enterprise model that will benefit small-scale farmers in Taraba state, Nigeria. The action will fast-track agricultural productivity,promote access to markets, increase income, and improve socioeconomic stability in selected communities within the state.  Ultimately, small-scale farmers participating in this action will be able a) to produce (#PRO#) enough food to feed themselves andtheirhousehold; and b) produce a surplus of food that can be sold (#SELL#) into a market to sustain an income (together, #PROSELL#).

Youth Climate Justice Fund Youth-led climate justice movements are essential to achieving climate and environmental justice. Their intersectional voices hold a unique and critical moral authority that drives ambitious, fair, and sustainable transitions worldwide. These movements have already made history, leading the socio-environmental movement since 2018 and holding policy-makers accountable for their promises. They are the heartbeat of an ecosystem of social movements that remind us of the urgency and gravity of the climate crisis, which is ultimately a polycrisis.

Yet, according to the Youth Climate Justice Study (2022), youth-led climate justice initiatives represent only0.76% of climate grants from the largest climate foundations (on average between 2019-21). They lack support, connections, capacitydevelopment, flexible funding and trusted relationship with funders and donors. This is even more difficult for locally-led, Indigenous Peoples', women and queer-led organizers who face structural inequalities.

The Youth Climate Justice Fund aims to support climate justice young leaders with trust-based funding, resources, and youth-to-youth capacity development, enabling them to amplify their voices and to keep their vision and influence alive.

Collectively, we have the power to ignite meaningful change and build equitable and sustainable futures. Despite the challenges posed by the current crisis, youth climate justice organizers remain determinedto challenge the status quo and push boundaries.
