Catholic Relief Services Catholic Relief Services, founded in 1943, is the overseas relief and development agency of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. CRS currently works in over 100 countries around the world with offices across Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.

CRS began work in Uganda in 1965 in an effort to aid refugees from South Sudan fleeing violence in their home country. In 1995, CRS opened an office in Kampala to better assist the Ugandan people during the armed conflict in the North. Since then, CRS has workedin the areas of agriculture, emergency response and recovery, health, microfinance, peacebuilding, and water and sanitation.

Despite achievements Uganda has made in eradicating poverty, many households remain poor with 21.4% of thepopulation, about 8 million Ugandans, living below the poverty line (Uganda Bureau of Statistics 2017 report). Poverty is aggravated by vulnerability to adverse shocks with a large section of the country is still lagging behind in sanitation, education and child nutrition.

With a continued influx of refugees into the country because of regional instability, the World Bank projects a further decline in economic growth amonghosting communities.

PARC Amidst the unprecedented surge in violence in Gaza gripping the West Bank, the stringent movement restrictions enforced through theinstallation of metal gates and cement blocks at key entry points to cities, villages, and refugee camps have wrought profound consequences on the daily lives of Palestinians. These measures, indicative of the heightened tensions, have resulted in severe impediments to accessing essential services, goods, and even water, exacerbating an already dire humanitarian crisis. Furthermore, the plight of Palestinian men and women workers who once found employment in Israel, now facing the consequences of their sudden loss of employment last October and lack of opportunities in the West Bank due to the increased movement restrictions and closure of businesses,serves as a stark reminder of the socio-economic fallout
precipitated by the escalating violence. This is especially true for women-headed households and working women, where women face double burdens of providing for their families and maintaining all household care and childcare duties in the context of limited available and accessible income-generating opportunities. Dire economic situations may also increase the risk of early marriage for girls. The severe restrictions on movement and borders not only exacerbate the humanitarian crisis but also disrupt the import and export of essential commodities, leading to prolonged supply chains and increasedtransportation costs. Consequently, this disruption amplifies economic instability, diminishing the purchasing power of men and women, and further unravelling the socio-economic fabric of the West Bank, over 40% of Palestinian SMES have closed their business since October 7th in WB.
In the aftermath of the Gaza war in October 2023, the situation in the West Bank has worsened for Palestinian landowners. Severe restrictions imposed by an Israeli military coordination system aim to curb settler violence. However, these restrictions limit landowners' access to their lands, allowing only short periods for planting and harvesting. Consequently, crops are left vulnerable to encroachment and theft by settlers. The recent cancellation of this coordination mechanism has intensified the situation, especially impacting olive harvests near settlements and in remote areas. The lack of Israeli intervention against settler harassment perpetuates violence, severely affecting the livelihoods of thousands of Palestinian families. Palestinian women bear additional burdens and risks, as they face the consequences of Israeli occupation policies and entrenched patriarchal social norms. Womenworkers and farmers are particularly vulnerable to various forms of sexual harassment and exploitation at checkpoints and from Israeli settlers..
SOS Kinderdorpen-Somalia Joint Response The Somalia Joint Response is a 3-year project funded by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs through the Dutch Relief Alliance. Oxfam Novib is leading a consortium that consists of Help a Child, SOS Children’s Villages, World Vision, and Oxfam Novib. The main drivers of the humanitarian crisis in Somalia are conflict/violence, drought and floods. Recurrent climatic shocks and conflict continue to diminish the resilience of communities, consequently depleting livelihood and coping mechanisms. The project contributes to addressing gaps and needs in Food Security and Livelihoods, WASH, Health, Nutrition, Protection and Multi-purpose Cash. The members together with their local partners provide an integrated response, addressing both emergency needs as wellas providing medium-term livelihoods support. Considering Somalia’s complex protection crisis, protection is well-integrated in the design of the programme. The Somalia JR targets both vulnerable IDPs and host community members, and special attention is given to the inclusion of vulnerable groups, including elderly, pregnant and lactating women, children under the age of five, and people with disabilities. The target communities include urban, agro-pastoral as well as pastoral communities

Migration-Development-Human Rights JMED The MIDEDH Project is an initiative developed by the NGO Jeunesse-Enfance-Migration-Développement (JMED) to implement an integratedset of activities at community and local level in order to contribute to the awareness of communities and migrants on their rights and the migration process, to strengthen the capacities of local actors in the management of migration issues and to advocate for greater local public investment in favor of young people. This project aims to respond to the essential issues arising from the context analysis which are among others: the lack of reliable information among migrants and young people on migration and the rights of migrants generating significant risks and violations of rights generally without repairs; the lack of capacities of local actors to manage development and legal challenges linked to or causing migration. The project emphasizes in its intervention on three essentialcomponents: information-awareness; capacity building and advocacy. It mainly targets young men and women aged 15 to 35 in the intervention areas and their structures, local leaders (local elected officials, village heads, technical services, community leaders), as well as migrants in transit or those settled. / back in the communities of intervention.

CO-Food Assistance for Vulnerable HHs Beneficiaries will be invited to attend one-hour orientation sessions in groups of 25 persons to community venues within their proximity. PARC and Oxfam's field team will introduce the project’s activities, eligibility, benefits, voucher redemption process and pricing of commodities. They will also share with the beneficiaries when, how and where to redeem the vouchers, ways to reach out to staff to ask questions, as well as feedback mechanisms in place. Beneficiaries will then receive their voucher cards and will be requested to sign MoUs with PARC.
Oxfam will sign contracts with 6 -10 shops providing food voucher commodities to beneficiaries. Oxfam has already pre-selected vendors for grocery and fresh food shops, carried out through an online prequalification process, and the list will be updated after identifying the exact locations of selected beneficiaries. The newly selected shops will receive one-day training on the e-voucher system (RedRose) and the provision of required equipment (related to RedRose system) will be delivered to the new shops by Oxfam staff. Contracts will be signed between Oxfam and the vendors directly.Carry out the end-line survey

HO-503001 About the urgency of our proposal we are quite short: the climate crisis is the greatest threat ever to human nature, but decision makers refuse to act accordingly. In the meantime millions of people worldwide lose their lives, incomes and future, while nature isdeclining at an unprecedented rate.
Only if we act quickly and decisively, we can still turn the tide. That is exactly what young climate activists do. Only if they have our full support we can change the tide. Oxfam Novib, Extinction RebellionNetherlands and Fridays For Future Netherlands want movements of young climate activists to become stronger, become more inclusive and grow. In this project we put all our innovative power to make that change happen.
In this project, we ask young climateactivists worldwide what theyneed and stand squarely behind them. We support their struggle – that also is ours– with training, supporting networks that increase their influence and with funds the can use as required. We build bridges between individuals, grassroots and more established organizations, in between old and new allies. We give young climate activists resources to  battle climate change together, more powerful and to perform more effectively.
Together we create the well-equipped platform TIPPINGPOINT for and by young people climate activists, where they can meet, learn, strengthen themselves and make plans together. They can also apply for funding.
Together we make the movements stronger and more inclusive, so that groups worldwide are better able to tackle climate change.

CO-Uganda In this project we will build a network of professional local story producers in 6 regions of the world who are willing and able tosupport Oxfam and our partners in creating stories 4 change. In the coming decade we expect to especially need stories on climate change, economic, gender (in)equality and systemic injustice, to show that change is needed and possible. By producing it in cocreation and with local producers, we will avoid the pitfalls of our traditional and neo-colonial biases: victimizing instead of empowering, charity instead of activism, patriarchal instead of feminist, listening instead of telling.
In this project we will explore and pilot with 6 local partners how we can build a story detecting, production and telling system that does honor to our mission and vision, is strengthening our partners in their work and builds towards a local professional network that can support civil society in the countries we work in.
Objectives and results:
• Increase awareness and mutual understandingof the importance of storytelling for fundraising, brand and advocacy purposes.
• Facilitate and support detecting the stories, results and epic fights that have the potential to resonate with large global audiences.
• Reflect together on the do’s and don’ts coming from local culture, neocolonialist presumptions and context driven focusses.
• Identify the stories that challenge the existing discourse and advocate for change.
• Develop and implement an educational program for at least selected participants per course/year
• Cocreate and produce 12 relevant multimedia stories that adhere to Oxfam quality  and ethical policies.
Commitment to Reducing Inequality (CRI) The Commitment to Reducing Inequality (CRI) Index monitors what governments are doing through their policy commitments to reduce inequality. Inequality is a policy choice and governments have considerable powers to reduce the gap between the rich and poor in their countries. The CRI Index is developed and delivered through a partnership between Development Finance International and Oxfam International, with inputs from independent experts.
The CRII measures what national governments are doing to reduce inequality by looking at three broad pillars. They included the pillar of the public service which has the education, health, and social protections. The three have been shown to have a significant impact on poverty eradication and inequality reduction. The second pillar is progressive taxation. Raising funds in a progressive manner will make available the resources needed to fund the three public services and reduce income inequality through pre/redistribution. The third pillar is labour which looks at women’s right in paper and in practice, decent jobs and minimum wages.
This project will support production of global CRII in 2022 and a number of regional indexes providing more in depth picture of inequalities, especially in the global South, instigating race to the top.
