F.a: Women's and girls' vocational skills training in Sierra Leone Poor access to education with regard to poor literacy rates and skills development is one of the biggest problems Sierra Leone. It is estimated that only around 43% of the adult population (over 15 years) are literate (male 55%, female 33%). Girls’ schoo
l dropout is particularly significant causes being for example parents’ inability to purchase school materials and cultural practices such as early marriage. Women and girls are very often discriminated against in the rural areas in Sierra Leone in educa
tion and employment. The districts of Koinadugu and Bombali suffer from lack of adequate opportunities for basic education and access to livelihood opportunities, and women clearly trail behind their male counterparts with regards access to and control ove
r productive assets, skills and education.The overall objective of the project is to increase the economic and social well-being of vulnerable girls and women in Makeni and Kabala towns in Sierra Leone. Vulnerable women and girls who have had limited acces
s to education and often have poor literacy skills are offered a so called “second chance” to learn vocational skills that are relevant to the current and future employment market and enhance small business opportunities for beneficiaries. New vocation
al skills together with improved life and literacy skills contribute to graduates empowerment, increased self-confidence and contribute to reduced vulnerability.Skills training centres in Kabala and Makeni town provide training in dressmaking, weaving, tex
tile dyeing, catering and hospitality trades and agriculture. Curriculum content in training centres will include entrepreneurial skills development and incorporate on-the-job training/internships (with external outlets) and production learning opportuniti
es (centre based outlet). Adult literacy and numeracy classes and kindergarten/crèche services are also provided at the skills training centres.Rights-holders /beneficiaries: Rural and urban girls and young womenImplementing partner: Forum for African Wom

F.a: IndustriALL Union Building through HIV/AIDS Workplace Action, evaluation The project reduces effects of HIV/AIDS among industry workers, mainly in the mining sector. In the project training will be continued for HIV/AIDS support persons who will after work as peer support group leaders. The project also implements information, 
counseling and testing campaigns at workplace level in cooperation with health care professionals and employers’ representatives, covering also the communities around the workplaces. Union leaders and officials are trained about the contents of ILO’s r
ecommendation no 200, on the basis of which unions develop their HIV/AIDS programs and policies.The role of the trade union movement in HIV/AIDS work is related on the awareness rising about prevention of infections and on ensuring equal treatment of HIV p
ositive people in working life and trade union activities. Unions are in many countries part of civil society HIV networks, but their special feature is the possibility to reach large groups of workers and their families and to get employers to participate
 in HIV work. Talking about sensitive issues is usually easier to start with the shop steward or other union friend. The cooperation of unions and health care professionals ensures competent support and assistance to those who need it. For the employer it 
is a positive asset to have reasonably healthy employees capable of working despite their infection; therefore more and more companies support the unions’ counseling and testing campaigns. The companies also contribute to medical care expenses of their w
orkers where the governments do not (yet) guarantee free medication for all citizens. For unions HIV/AIDS campaigns have in many cases been the gate of access to negotiation tables and on the other hand due to their visibility and concrete benefit signific
ant attractions in organising workers to unions.Results of the project are better information, peer support, testing and counseling; dealing with discrimination cases becomes easier; HIV clauses such as health care services and anti-discrimination will be 
included in collective agreements; as well as wider visibility of unions will affect membership figures positively.Beneficiaries are industrial, especially mine, workers, other residents of mining communities, union members, activists, shop stewards and he
alth and safety representatives in Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Guinea and Zambia.The project is implemented by IndustriALL Global Union and its affiliates in the project countries.

ILO decent work women ILO Naisten työelämäoikeuksien kohentaminen ILO's project aims at supporting women to better participate in labour markets and social dialogue and enhancing their position to defend their rights with regards to international labour standards. Ero naisten ja miesten välisessä työllisyysasteessa on edelleen iso Lähi-idässä ja Pohjois-Afrikassa. Tunisiassa ja Egyptissä vain yksi neljästä naisesta on mukana talouselämässä vaikka nuorten naisten osuus korkeakoulutetuista on suhteellisen 
suuri. Naisten alhainen työllisyysaste vaikuttaa negativiisesti maiden talouskasvuun.International Labour Organizationin (ILO) hankkeen tavoitteena on vahvistaa tunisialaisten ja egyptiläisten naisten mahdollisuuksia osallistua työmarkkinoille ja yhteis
kunnalliseen keskusteluun sekä puolustaa heidän oikeuksiaan kansainvälisten työelämää koskevien säädösten toimeenpanemisessa. Lisäksi hankkeella pyritään vahvistamaan valtion hallinnon ja työmarkkinajärjestöjen kapasiteettia tasa-arvokysymy
ksissä.Suomi on rahoittanut hanketta vuosina 2012-2016 (25 MEUR). Hanke on edennyt hyvin: sen aikana on koulutettu 430 virkamiestä ja järjestöjen jäsentä naisten oikeuksiin ja tasa-arvoon liittyvissä asioissa sekä 1200:n heikossa asemassa olevan na
isen työelämätaitoja on kehitetty koulutuksilla. Lisäksi kansallista tietopohjaa tasa-arvoasioihin liittyen on parannettu ja  työmarkkinalaitoksille on annettu suosituksia koskien naisten oikeuksia ja tasa-arvoa työelämässä.Suomen tuki hankkeelle 
on 622 023 euroa.
