AAP 2021: AD 4 Climate change and security: conflict sensitive community based technological solutions for conflict prevention With the natural resources of the planet already overburdened, climate change adds to the competition for fertile land, water, energy and minerals. In many cases this leads to varying degrees of conflict and violence. The development and deployment of new technologies, tailor-made to address climate related issues identified at community level, could play an essential role in addressing climate change and increasing resilience to the adverse effects of climate change. Technological innovation can also contribute to stability and conflict prevention, for example technologies that promote efficient water use or mobile apps to track rain-fall patterns allowing herders to plan routes that avoid farmed land. Promoting conflict sensitive, innovative, climate change solutions - in particular those targeting local needs and those initiated and implemented by local communities ¿ not only strengthens resilience but also provides opportunities for cooperation across dividing lines on issues of common concern, thereby helping to lower the risk of disasters and conflicts. Furthermore, actions which enable partnerships (between governments, private sector entities, financial institutions, NGOs, and research and education institutions) and boost innovation, can act as a catalyst for empowerment of the local communities and for local solutions. In addressing the interdependence between security and climate change, this action directly responds to the objective of the thematic programme for peace, stability and conflict prevention which aims to strengthen capacities, institutions and policies, and support relevant initiatives at local national, regional and multinational levels to understand and address climate security risks. This action aims to strengthen resilience of conflict-affected societies by encouraging and facilitating conflict sensitive, community-based technological solutions to climate change.
Strengthening Crisis Response Capacities of the League of Arab States (LAS) and Member Countries This AAP aims to build and strengthen the capacity of the EU and its partners to prevent conflict, build peace and address pre- and post-crisis needs. It is aligned with the priorities identified in IcSP 2014-2020 Strategy Paper
AAP 2021: AD 1 Support to in-country civil society actors in conflict prevention, peace building, crisis preparedness The action aims to support in-country civil society actors in their effort to prevent conflicts, respond to crises and build peace. Through funding disbursed and managed by FPI regional teams in close cooperation with EU Delegations, it is envisaged to support actions implemented by civil society (local civil society organisations, international non-governmental organisations) in conflict-affected contexts to strengthen their institutional, operational and networking capacity in four priority areas relating to conflict prevention and peace-building: i) security and stabilisation; ii) women, youth, peace and security; iii) media and conflict; and, iv) culture and peace.&nbsp;
AAP 2022: AD1 Support to in-country civil society actors in conflict prevention, peace building, crisis preparedness The proposed action aims to support in-country civil society actors in their effort to prevent conflicts, respond to crises and build peace. It is envisaged to support actions implemented by local civil society and international non-governmental organisations in conflict-affected contexts to strengthen their institutional, operational and networking capacity in three priority areas relating to conflict prevention and peace-building: a) human security, resilience and stabilisation; b) inclusivity in peace and security, and c) support to locally-led peacebuilding.
AAP 2021: AD 3 Tackling disinformation in conflict-affected contexts Disinformation has emerged as a critical challenge globally. In conflict-affected contexts where state structures are either weak or contested and where media and digital literacy is sometimes low, disinformation is on the rise and threatens the resilience and stability of already fragile social fabrics. Orchestrated disinformation campaigns, extremist propaganda, hate speech and incitement to violence are more and more common online and fuel conflict, triggering tensions and violence. In the longer term such campaigns undermine social cohesion and the social contract between state and citizens. Conflict parties, proxies and backers, are increasingly acquiring new digital capabilities and fight online disinformation wars that pose significant challenges to peace and security in the years to come. Peace processes have also become targets of disinformation campaigns with the aim to undermine their legitimacy and disrupt their effective proceedings and conclusion. This action aims to strengthen the resilience of conflict-affected societies to disinformation and online harm by strengthening in-country capacities to detect, monitor and respond to disinformation. It will also support initiatives to protect peace processes from disinformation and other harmful online content.
AAP 2021: AD 5 Underpinning multilateral solutions to sustain and build peace through the United Nations Peacebuilding Fund This action seeks to sustain and build peace and contribute to more concerted and coherent international efforts in this regard through support to the UN Peacebuilding Fund (PBF). The action will also underpin the UN Peacebuilding Commission and enhance the overall capacity of the UN to fulfil its mandate on peace and security. The increase in the EU¿s contribution would place it among the first twenty donors in terms of the size of the contributions. The action contributes towards the implementation of the strategic EU-UN partnership on crisis management and on building and sustaining peace as expressed through, inter alia, cooperation in the joint Steering Committee on Crisis Management, on Recovery and Peacebuilding assessments, and engagement in the Peacebuilding Commission and with the Peacebuilding Support Office. The action underpins the EU position on the 2020 UN Peacebuilding Architecture Review, and will allow the EU to further contribute to the ability of the United Nations system to effectively perform its mandate in sustaining peace before, during and after an escalation of violent conflict.&nbsp;
AAP 2021: AD 6 Conflict Prevention, Peacebuilding and Crisis Preparedness Support Measures The Overall Objective (Impact) of this action is to contribute to the implementation of the Peace, Stability and Conflict prevention component of the NDICI by ensuring the sufficient support related to the implementation of the component is available to stimulate the best use of resources in terms of priorities and impact of responses. The Specific Objective (Outcome) of this action is to establish the Conflict Prevention, Peacebuilding and Crisis Preparedness Support Measures as a flexible structure to cover expenditures associated with the identification, preparation, follow up, monitoring and evaluation activities related to the implementation of the programme and to the achievement of its objectives. Such measures (e.g. strategies, risk analysis, gender analysis, short-term capacitybuilding, information sessions, special events for awareness-raising, publications, training activities, identification and formulation activities, third party monitoring, evaluations, studies and technical assistance) contribute to the sound management of the instrument, to the achievement of its expected results and to the measurement, analysis and reporting of its impact.&nbsp;

Sustainable Fruit Production to Enhance Nutritional Security in DPRK through Implementation of Low Input Biological Control - Based Integrated Pest Management Strategies The project aims to improve fruit productivity and hence nutritional security and resilience in DPR Korea's fruit production system. We will enhance institutional, technical and networking capacity of stakeholders in the sector so they can develop and implement strategies for sustainable pest management, thus improving fruit production and quality and reducing use of dangerous chemicals. We will be working with staff at one large fruit farm and smaller cooperative farms to develop best practice guidelines for fruit integrated pest management (IPM), which will be made available and implemented country-wide. This will anchor fruit IPM within DPR Korea and provide the population with a more stable and evenly distributed fruit supply and better nutrition. Developing the guidelines will be facilitated by activities including: training and institutional capacity building; developing and validating an IPM strategy for apple production and policy-level measures; and developing an economically viable, low-technology, environmentally safe and locally adapted Trichogramma mass-production and application system for biological control of the main apple pest.
