F.a: Safeguarding Biocultural Rights of the Hunter Gatherer communities in Kenya Hunter-gatherer communities in Kenya have constantly and gradually continued to lose their habitat to logging and clearing for agriculture, and development of extractive industries and have been evicted in the name of conservation. In addition, indigenous 
lands have been taken over by outside communities on the basis of their own needs. For this project, these mentioned challenges face both the Ogiek of the Mau forest, the Yiakus of the Mukogodo forest and the Sengwers of the Embobut forest. These communiti
es have joined forces and are working to advance the rights of hunter-gatherers locally, nationally and internationally.   The proposed project seeks to restore the communities' land tenure rights and the protection of biodiversity through development of C
ommunity Biocultural Protocols (BCPs). These protocols establish cultural structures, management systems and practices based on the communities' traditional knowledge, territories and natural resources, and assess the related challenges they face. Dialogue
s will be organized with the government representatives to highlight the activities of the project and to seek recognition of the land tenure rights of the communities and to promote the protection of biodiversity also as a basis for the sustainable liveli
hood of the communities. The aim is also to engage young people in restoration of lost biodiversity through tree planting.   In the case of Yiaku and Sengwer, these are their first biocultural protocols, and in the case of Ogiek, this would be an update to
 the protocol from five years back in the light of changed context and new needs. Biocultural protocols will be produced in written form and printed for each community for use by them and other relevant stakeholders.   The project is estimated to have abou
t 10,000 direct beneficiaries (Ogieks, Sengwers and Yiakus), about half of whom are women.   The legal holder of the project would be OPDP (Ogiek Peoples ?Development Program). Two other organizations acting on behalf of Kenya's hunter-gatherer communities
 are also central to this project: the Yiaku Laikipia Trust (YLT) and the Sengwer Indigenous People Program (SIPP). Information on their activities can be found e.g. from here:  www.ogiekpeoples.org, https://www.yiakulaikipiaktrust.org/, https://www.cbd.in

F.a: Public Sector Trade Union against Gender Based Violence in Africa For years, unions and working women have struggled against gender-based harassment and violence. Violence in the world of work affects mostly women, but it can also affect migrant workers or young workers, for example. The project is based on Convention No
. 190 of the International Labor Organization (ILO) on ?Ending Violence and Harassment in the world of Work?, adopted in 2019. It obliges states to ensure that legislation guarantees the right to equality and non-discrimination in employment. As a result o
f the project, working women in Senegal, Uganda and South Africa will be better protected against gender-based violence and harassment, and structural changes will be achieved in the workplace. ILO Convention No. 190 will be ratified and its content will b
e better taken into account in collective agreements. The project will influence the legislation of the countries through campaigns. The project will also increase employees' awareness of their rights through training and negotiate clauses in collective ag
reements to combat gender-based violence. The project will benefit those working in South Africa, Senegal and Uganda, especially women. The project is being implemented by Public Services International PSI, together with its affiliates in South Africa, Sen
egal and Uganda. The project is supported by Finnish trade unions JHL and Tehy

Education Cannot Wait/contribution to the fund Education Cannot Wait/Suomen tuki rahastoon Education is one of the most underfunded areas of the humanitarian aid. Only around 2-4 % of global humanitarian funding is allocated to education. Humanitarian emergencies and protracted crises have disrupted he education of 75 million children has been d
isrupted in around the world. In addition to the funding Education Cannot Wait is aiming to develop humanitarian-development nexus and to involve the private sector and other non-traditional donors. Disability inclusion and equality are advocacy goals for 
Finland. ECW gives also an opportunity for Finland to highlight the importance of school food and nutrition. ECW membership increases Finland's humanitarian assistance to the education increases significanly. Humanitaarinen apu on kärsinyt opetukseen suunnattavan rahoituksen puutteesta. Maailmanlaajuisesti vain 2-4 % humanitaarisesta avusta on kohdistunut opetukseen. Kriiseistä kärsiviä lapsia ja nuoria arvioidaan maailmassa olevan noin 75 miljoonaa ja mä
ärä on ollut nousussa. Varainkeruun lisäksi ECW:n tarkoituksena on kehittää kehitysyhteistyön ja humanitaarisen avun yhdistäviä toimintatapoja (nexus) ja saada yksityissektori ja muut-ei-perinteiset toimijat tehokkaammin mukaan.Suomelle selkeitä v
aikuttamistavoitteita ECW:ssä ovat vammaisinkluusio ja tasa-arvo. ECW tarjoaa mahdollisuuden myös korostaa kouluruokailun tärkeyttä.  Liittyminen Education Cannot Wait -rahastoon lisää merkittävällä tavalla Suomen humanitaarista rahoitusta koulutu
ssektorille. Esitetään 6 miljoonaa euroa Education Cannot Wait -rahastolle vuosille 2020-2021.

F.a: Training of the next generation of renewable energy policymakers in Myanmar?s Shan State To build the capacity of the next generation of policy makers in Shan State in Myanmar, a holistic training program of several weeks is required. A major capacity gap is the ability to include energy development aspects (e.g. land lost due dam projects, de
centralized alternatives) into the Land Law consultation process of 2020. In addition, the next generation of practitioners for advancing decentralized renewable energy (DRE) is also direly required to set forth a bottom up, scalable movement toward equita
ble rural development.    In this project, Kyun Ta Htaung Myae Foundation (KTHM) will implement a capacity building program to train the next generation of energy policy makers and practitioners in Nam San, Kunhing and Mong Nai townships the marginalized e
thnic sub-region of the Salween River Basin.   The program includes the following activities:   1) Training to develop specialized skillsets for policy development and DRE assessment for 20 young ethnic leaders and further 80 community-level technical lead
ers (by the 20 trained young leaders),   2) Field-based, participatory research by the trained young leaders to map (a) land use issues as they relate to energy development, (b) DRE national resource, energy demand, and socio-environmental aspects, and (c)
 productive end use of energy focusing in rural agriculture end uses.   3) Development and presentation of field research outputs by the 20 young leaders to move forward DRE planning and implementation in the Salween River Basin for local inclusive energy 
planning    4) Policy recommendations and advocacy for the Land Use Law reacted and local level energy plan that outlines a project pipeline for short-term and medium-term DRE projects.   Direct Beneficiaries will 100 young leaders of ethnic communities, a
nd indirect beneficiaries include more than 1200 community members. Other stakeholders include national and international cooperation organizations, energy experts and micro hydro SMEs as well as government authorities from township level to state level. K
THM works to create more space for women in its project planning and activities, it is hoped that 40% of the trained young leaders would be women.   The implementing organisation is membership-based Kyun Ta Htaung Myae Foundation, located in Taunggyi. In i
ts work, KTHM focuses on sustainable natural resource governance (including land rights, water governance and decentralized renewable energy), democratic processes, justice and peace issues.

F.a: Teacher Education in South Sudan (TESS) in South Sudan 1. Project: 12095 Teacher Education in South Sudan (TESS) in South Sudan2. Project area and Country: Awerial, Jonglei + Central Equatoria States, South Sudan                                            3. Project justification: In South Sudan, the existing 
pre-service and in-service training options available in the country cannot meet the high level of need to increase the number of qualified teachers in the country. A complex set of issues affect teacher supply, quality and attendance, which are at the cor
e of the challenge of delivering quality education. These include among others: lack of regular or adequate remuneration, lack of access to support and wellbeing services, inadequate support supervision and mentorship, and limited opportunity for progressi
on and certification. Teachers’ capacity to deliver quality education is constrained further by lack of professional skills and materials that would enable them to prepare well for their lessons, short supply and inequitable distribution of qualified mal
e and female teachers, especially in the core subject areas. In addition, issues related to girls and its confidentiality remains untended to when male teachers respond to the concerns of girls in schools.4. The main objective and the expected results:FCA 
aims to improve the technical and soft skills of teachers, a critical component for delivery of quality education and a key requirement for retention and transition beyond primary school. The beneficiaries are practicing teachers who have the minimum quali
fication to attain the formally recognized University of Juba teaching certification. There will be three training centers (in Awerial, Jonglei + Central Equatoria States) to reduce the cost and risk of moving teachers. Training will also be extended to co
ver Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) teacher training as an additional in-service course, which will follow national guidelines and international recommendations with Finnish experience and expertise. Additionally, Career Guidance and
 Counselling training will be piloted with a group of teachers, in order to collect evidence of the impact and promote the CGC system development in South Sudan education system.5. Right-holders/beneficiaries: 300 teachers (100 women, 200 men)Duty bearers:

F.a: Equipping African Trade Unions for Inclusion and Effective Participation in Trade and Investment Processes - AfCFTA The African Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA) reached the ratification threshold for implementation in 2019. Ratification proceeded incredibly fast without consultation with civil society and was promoted only at the level of policy makers and gove
rnments. The African trade union movement has so far not done systematic advocacy in the AfCFTA ratification process, as trade unions' understanding of the treaty is very deficient. The implementation of the free trade agreement will affect political proce
sses at national level and thus workers' rights, employment and livelihoods. If the African trade union movement is unable to influence the open chapters of the free trade agreement and national legislative processes, it is quite likely that the gradual im
plementation of the agreement could weaken national legislation on worker protection and regulation, disrupt national labor markets, undermine trade union achievements and conditions. The project will strengthen the expertise of the African trade union mov
ement and at the same time the opportunities to participate in and influence the African Continental Free Trade Agreement. The result of the project is that professional trade unions in selected African countries have the know-how, knowledge and capacity t
o participate in free trade agreement negotiations. National centers are able to influence the development of the agreement and bring their own views for its implementation at the national and regional levels. In addition, the studies carried out in the pr
oject will support the advocacy of the trade union movement and the trade unions will develop a monitoring mechanism to monitor the development and implementation of the free trade agreement. In addition, a campaign will be launched to raise awareness of t
he African Continental Free Trade Agreement among workers on the continent. The project will benefit the participating ITUC-African member organizations as well as local trade unions and their members in Chad, Ghana, Namibia, Rwanda, Tunisia. The partners 
are the Labor Research Service (LRS) and the ITUC-Africa Regional Organization.

FLC: CCF/Strengthening of the local professionals on rehabilitation and inclusion of children with hearing impairment 15 counties in Moldova The object of the project is to support to local professionals from Psycho-pedagogical assistance services and schools/kindergartens on rehabilitation and inclusion of children with hearing impairment in 15 counties of the Republic of Moldova. The outputs 
of the project is to ensure the rehabilitation and  equal access to education of 30 children with hearing  impairment; build capacity of the local 120 professionals from the inclusive education structures; improve families? knowledge and skills in children
?s rehabilitation effective participation and inclusion in society of their children. The project is a follow-up project for the project CCF is implementing 2018 - 2019 with the support of FLC instrument. The project builds on the lessons learned from that
 project: 1. rehabilitation of children with hearing disabilities is a slow process and it needs to be begin early for good results. Hence CCFs goal is that children with hearing disabilities are directed to the special health services before they reach th
e school age. 2.  Families with child with hearing disabilities often have multiple social problems and often require other kind of support also. CCF is advising families to get the support from local public authorities. 3. Families prefer to act locally. 
In this project CCF team will travel to rehabilitate the children in their own environment (home school or kindergarten) instead of families travelling to CCF for rehabilitation. 4. In order to reach sustainability it is necessary to focus in training the 
staff members of psycho-pedagogical institutions and teaching personnel. CCF on edustuston nykyinen PYM-kumppani ja uusi hanke jatkaa kuulovammaisten lasten inklusiivisen koulutuksen edistämistä. Uusi hanke rakentuu edellisen hankkeen opetuksille ja niinpä tässä hankkeessa painopiste on kunnallisten ja valtakunnallisten ps
yko-pedagogisten palveluiden henkilökunnan ja opetushenkilökunnan kouluttamisessa. Lisäksi järjestö jatkaa kuulovammaisten lasten ja perheiden tukemista kuulolaitteiden käytössä ja puhumisen opettelussa. Moldovan sosiaali- terveys- ja työministeri
ö kutsuu järjestön usein asiantuntijakseen vammaisasioissa minkä lisäksi ministeriön toimintasuunnitelma 2018 ? 2021 on nostanut kuulovammaisten lasten valtavirtakoulutukseen sisällyttämisen yhdeksi tavoitteeksi. Teema on siis hyvin ajankohtainen M
oldovassa ja tämä on CCF:n pitkäjänteisen työn tulosta. Hanke toteutuu noin 15 kunnassa eri puolilla Moldovaa.

DevPlat: Home based monitoring for Inflammatory Bowel Disease Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), like Crohn´s disease, are a group of chronic diseases that cause a lifelong struggle for the patients. There are more than 40 million patients globally and the number is rising steadily. IBD patients can have difficult c
onsequences because of the illness, so they burden the healthcare system with often unnecessary doctor visits. 
In this project we are researching solutions that enable a patient to monitor the IBD disease at home and only visit the doctor when necessary. 
This reduces the cost for the healthcare and enables the patient to have a better control for the disease, even when located far away from the hospital.
