South Africa: Domestic Workers Rising BACKGROUND
Even though the number of domestic workers continues to grow globally, it remains a generally invisible form of employment in many countries. Under-valued and exploited, poorly regulated domestic workers mostly endure poor economic and socialconditions.  South Africa is often cited  as one of the most unequal countries in the world with domestic workers at the lower end of the foodchain.
There are currently more than a million domestic workers in South Africa and although recognised as workers and covered by specific labour law, Sectoral Determination 7 for Domestic Workers, they remain one of the mostly poorly paid and disempowered sections of the workforce. A hard to organize sector, with weak organization exposes them to numerous vulnerabilities.
On 31 March 2012 MsBadanile Maria Mahlangu – worker, mother, grandmother, sister, daughter – died tragically, by drowning in her employer’s swimming pool. At the time of death, she had been working for the same employer for 22 years. Because domestic workers are not covered under the Compensation for Occupational Injuries and Diseases Act (COIDA), Ms Mahlangu’s next of kin were not entitled to any benefits. Ms.Ms Pinky Mashiane, a representative of domestic workers, sought to pursue the matter and persevered tirelessly garnering support along the way.
In 2018 a campaign was formed as a means of creating awareness about the Mahlangu case and advocating for inclusion of domestic workers in the Compensation for Occupational Injuries and Diseases Act (COIDA).
At that stage there was no coherent channelfor domestic workers to defend their rights across different trade unions and organizations. There appeared to be little public knowledge on the challenges experienced by domestic workers and their limited access to justice. There also appeared to be very limitedcapacity – including digital literacy skills – among domestic workers to effectively spearhead campaigns advocating for their rights.

PROPOSED INTERVENTIONS
The proposed interventions are aimed at strengthening the capability of domestic workers to self-organisein defence of their rights.  In addition to ensuring a skilled and empowered workforce, the interventions seek to create a digitally enabling environment for domestic workersas a direct challenge to the super-exploitative on-demand labour platforms.
Developmentalobjective:
A skilled and empowered workforce in the domestic work sector, based on dignified work
Medium to long-term: (1-2 years)
• On-demand labour platforms uphold and protect worker rights
• All employers of domestic workers uphold and protect worker rights
•Domestic workers are mobilised and organised to demand their worker rights

Project objective:
Capacitated domestic workers able toorganise digitally and build solidarity

Specific objectives:
1. co-ordinated communication and action
2. skilled worker leaders
3.improved organisation of domestic workers
4. increased voice of domestic workers
Insurance Conv. Impl Pillar 2 Nat&Milieu Through regular, active participation in the Steering Group of the IMVO Convergent Insurance sector and in 4 working groups (Themes, Annual Theme, Monitoring and Reporting, Joint Priorities), the applying NGOs will:

climate change, controversial weapons and arms trade, nature, the fight against corruption, health (including access to medicines) and animal welfare in the local context.
The NGOs will contribute by sharing their expertise with the Partiesand Insurers with regard to, among other things:
# Contacts with local stakeholders;
# The development of civil society in developing countries;
# ESG risks;
# Ways to remove barriers to the completion of ESG policies, such as freedom of association;
# Contacts with governments in unstable, conflict-affected or quasi-uncontrolled areas;
# Contacts with the government of states where frequent serious impacts frequently occur;
# Protection of (human rights) activists;
# Gathering local evidence with regard to ESG violations

In addition, the NGOs will provide the parties and insurers with (background) information, knowledge, analysis, perspectives and /or advice on matters such as:
# Actual and potential impacts in the field of ESG, with a clear indication of the status of this information;
# General ESG policies and procedures for ESG due diligence;
# Colleague and partner organizations.

Mainstreaming Disabilities Training The Goal of the Capfish/FOSTER project is to improve the socio-economic conditions of the fishing communities and environmental sustainability of the (Western) Tonle Sap Biosphere Reserve (TSBR) through   community-centered interventions reaching over 200000 women, men and children in Cambodia.
The Capfish/FOSTER Project led by Oxfam and 14 partners has 3 Objectives:
1)Fishing communities in the Tonle Sap have increased access to safe water supply, hygiene and sanitation services2) Vulnerable and poor girls and boys are provided with increased availability and accessibility to education and can successfully transition through school 3) Fishing communities in the Tonle Sap have developed sustainable alternative livelihoods. In order to respond to the urgent need for fishing communities to diversify their livelihoods and reduce environmental pressures to the TSBR.

To support the consortium with integrating disability-sensitive approaches in their activities  ( Cambodia Disabled Peoples Organization (CDPO)  through its Disabled Peoples Organizations ((DPOs) will provide training to Consortium partners for mainstreaming disabilities across the three project areas -WASH, Education and Green economy- and follow up with mentoring.   To raise fishery community awareness of disability inclusion such as in livelihood development initiatives, round table discussions will be organized by DPOs and broadcasted on radio channels and social media across Cambodia.
CO-505418 Oxfam in Pakistan implements a broad range of work on conflict transformation related issues, including on fair and inclusive access to justice and will take the lead on the implementation of this project.
Men and women in Pakistan are caught between formal and informal justice systems that are ineffective, inaccessible and disconnected from community and individual needs.  Growing frustration amongst Pakistanis on a range of issues, including weak governance, inequality and corruption, is aggravated bya dysfunctional justice system that violates human rights and entrenches marginalisation. This provides space for the growth of violent extremism and militancy, creating the potential for violent conflict.
Through this conflict transformation approach, Oxfam together with Saferworldaim to contribute to an effective justice system that is accessible for all citizens in Pakistan; a system that is gender responsive, accountable and in line with international norms. Oxfam's work in this area focuses on creating linkages between the formal and informal justice systems, and by engaging local communities, low-status groups, women and youth to develop practical solutions for more inclusive justice provision and recommendations for reform in the broader system.
PCRP The equality in action program (Volunteer Cooperation program) is a global capacity building program for local partner organizations delivered mainly through Canadian volunteers and other mechanisms. The program aims to increase the social and economic well beingof the poorest, most marginalized people, especially women and girls.

Additionally, the program will increase Canadians participation in international development and key global issues by supporting gender equality, empowerment of women and girls, and inclusive governance through working closely with partners and supporting their needs and capacities. Through this programme and initiative PCRC will Develop the capacity of young people and increase their participation in the implementation of local awareness campaigns on gender equality and women's rights. 20 Young men and women will be trained to conduct local online and offline campaigns, including campaign planning and management, preparation of campaign materials. The training will be implemented on a weekly basis over a period ofsix months
Increased active citizenship, and the accountability of public & private sector OXFAM program ID PROG10145

In Nigeria, despite the huge resources from oil revenue, massive corruption, absence of accountable government and non-participatory governance persist leading to under development and deepening poverty. Climate Change is also further threatening food security with women left to bear majority of the burden.

The Good Governance Programme adopts a comprehensive approach to promoting the right to Social and Political participation to empower citizens to demand their right toa better life. First it works tofoster transparency and accountability in the inflow of resources from the Extractives sector; promotes and equitable and fair tax regimes; improve quality and quantity of public and private investments in agriculture, education and health sectors; reviewof specific policies and practices that builds resilience of farmers and Food to be recognised in the Nigerian constitution as a right. This will be achieved through effective collaboration with Civil Society partners and alliances, key government institutions, the media and the private sector, schools and the Nigeria Youth Service Corps.

Researches will be conducted and used to empower communities and the public to hold government to account through town hall meetings,face to face advocacies, media publications and appearances etc. Other materials such as policy briefs will be used for policy advocacy.

The programme will also leverage on the successes achieved on the long-term development projects to influence government and private sector for scale up.Communities will be empowered to engage with their Senators in their Senatorial zones.
HO-Masarouna: CTDC implementation My K In a region where securing Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) is especially challenging, Masarouna will mobilize the power of young people’s collective action in six Middle East and North Africa (MENA) countries to support their fight for greater freedom of choice and respect for their SRHR through new and innovative pathways for change. Our vision is that young people (YP) meaningfully induce sustainable change that will enable them to enjoy their SRHR.
Jordan is one of the countries where the Masarouna programme will be implemented.

Context:
In 2019, 41.4% of MENA’s population was aged 15-39, making it one of the world’s youngest regions. In recent years, young people have demonstrated their ability to become main drivers for change in response to long-standing structural inequalities, rising authoritarianism and increased levels of conflict and fragility. Young people in MENA continue to facesome of the most vocal conservative opposition to their SRHR. The problem that Masarouna will tackle is the perpetual obfuscation and the increasing weaponization of SRHR as a form of social control. This strips SRHR of the urgency it deserves, yet, we strongly believe fulfilling young people’s SRHR can have a transformative effect on sustainable development due to its connection with basic human well-being and gender equality. Strategic objective: Young people in six selected countries in the MENA region achieve more freedom to enjoy their SRHR in inclusive societies.
Targeted group: Young people aged 18-35, in particular (unmarried) women and LGBTQI+. Activists and individuals will be mobilized as agents and drivers of change throughout the programme cycle.

The programme’s strategic objective and outcomes contribute directly to achieving SDGs 3 (health and well-being), 5 (gender equality) and 10 (reduced inequalities. The programme is fully aligned with the ICPD25 Nairobi statement’s call for renewed commitments towards women’s and Young People’s SRHR.

The Masarouna programme implements two main pathways of change:

1: Lobby and advocacy with young people for theirSRHR
The first pathway promotes greater accountability of governments to adhere to international SRHR standards, human rights frameworks and agreements; promotes young people’s active and meaningful involvement in policy agenda-setting and decision-making; and increases public awareness on SRHR, including through media engagement, aiming to create new narratives on SRHR.


2: Strengthening civil society and reinventing civic space
A strong civilsociety can be a mobilizer, an amplifier of voices and a watchdog. With strengthened capacities, CSOs can create a sense of urgency around SRHR to push for sustainable change. CSOs need the space to play this political role, which Masarouna aims to reinvent by promoting the political activation and participation of young people and creatingand strengthening alternative civic spaces, both online and offline. Working online allows for reaching young people at scale by circumventing gatekeepers and mitigating risks around censorship.

It will also be the opportunity to re-launch the RIC network and attract their interest by organizing a meeting with the group.
5. Climate change is widely recognised as a "threat multiplier" due to its role of exacerbating the traditional root causes of conflict. In other words, what are the root causes of conflict and how are they multiplied by climate change and how do the international and national respond to those changes, notably through a triple nexus approach.
6. Research that  is aimed in starting the advoacy work around protection
GFFO-DEMI-E Reduce morbidity and mortality (by improving food security and enabling access to EHA services) and improve protection measures forthe most vulnerable women, men, girls, and boys in the two major crises in the Horn of Africa (Somalia, Ethiopia, Kenya), the central Sahel (Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger), and the forgotten crisis in the Central African Republic.In recent years, humanitarian needs have continued to grow, peaking in 2020 when 168 million people worldwide needed humanitarian assistance. The Covid19 pandemic has had an unprecedented impact on global humanitarian needs. According to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UN OCHA), the number of people in need of humanitarian assistance will reach 235 million by 2021, an increase of nearly 40 percent. In addition to the impact of Covid-19 on the health and economic situation of the most vulnerable, many conflicts are stillongoing, while the effects of climate change are forcing many people to leave their homes.Thisis particularly true for many Africancountries facing severe conflict and affected by natural disasters. Multi-sectoral humanitarian assistance in West, Central and East Africa aims to respond to some of the major humanitarian crises in the Sahel, CentralAfrican Republic and the Horn of Africa by providing life-saving assistance in key sectors such as water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH), food security and protection. Activitiesin seven countries (Burkina Faso, Central African Republic, Ethiopia, Kenya,Mali, Niger, and Somalia) are expected to reach over 390,000 people over a 27-month period.The project will be coordinated at the regional level to ensure a holistic approach and smooth implementation at all stages of assistance. In addition, a flexible funding approach will be used for this project, which provides for the achievement of outcome-level objectives in all three countries. This flexibility will allow us to respond to unforeseen eventsin forced displacement or conflict scenarios.Subordinate tothe project objective, the project has set the following targets for individual sectors: - EHA: Target groups improved their access to safe water and sanitation facilities and adapted their hygiene behavior. - EFSVL: Target groups have improved access tofood and their livelihoods are strengthened. - Protection: The security of target groups is improved by strengthening self-protection capacities, improving access to information on available services, and integrating protection into all sectors of the response.
