Support-Artisanal Fisheries&Coastal Mgnt This is an EC funded project. The major challenge facing the two ministries is lack of fisheries experts to carry forward the ministry's mandate. According to the Minister of Fisheries in Somaliland there is a need for more personnel with expertise and knowledge in fisheries to be able to cover the geographical area of the coastline and to be able to train the personnel in fisheries#. There is a general lack of fisheries expertise and there is a high level of brain drain of fisheries experts from the ministry to Europe and other parts of the world.  In addition, there is a lack of appropriate policies, regulations and training in fisheries and marine resources management for fisheries personnel in the ministry.

The ministry also lacks funding and finances to fulfill its mandate. Ministry of Fisheries has not been a government priority in terms of financing the ministry in Somaliland <(>&<)> Puntland.
Lack of recognition of Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) by international community led to illegal fishing and dumping of toxic wastes along theSomaliland and Puntland coastline. The Somalia transitional road map contains measures that would address illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing.

The specific objective of the action is to strengthen the capacity of the Ministries of Fisheries and Marine Resources in Somaliland and Puntland and private sector to maximize and manage marine resources and environment through adoption of the following two approaches:
1. To build capacity of the authorities in Somaliland and Puntland to formulate and put in place improved policies, regulations and monitoring mechanisms to manage marine resources and the coastal environment. The resultant policies areto form the legal basis for the protection of the right of these areas of Somalia over their sovereign waters and their jurisdiction over the marine environment.
2. Strengthen the capacity of the Ministries of Fisheries in Somaliland and Puntland to put in place a favourable working environment for artisanal fishermen.

The projectalso trained 60 potential women leaders and work with 92 couple of Gender Road Map model families.

This new project continues to build up the achievements and challenges from previous results especially developing the new business model for small holder farmers to become qualifiedSRI Service Providers. They are formed in group, well-trained, equipped, and encouraged to earn more revenues from selling labors by transplanting SRI for other farmers. The business model is added up with transplanting machine and/or weeding tools. Moreover, thefarmers encourage to work as a rice producer groups and apply eco-agriculture techniques with their SRI to increase value and access to the rice market. Saving for change (SfC) will also introduce among SRI farmers to have inputs to apply other integrate farming system (IFS) in the families. Furthermore, women empowerment and gender mainstreaming are also applied in this proposed action. The project works with potential women leaders and gender road map (GRM) model families. In addition, the results of farmers# works, market, new innovation, challenges, and lesson learned will be shared to public through Cambodia Community Innovative Center (CCIC). However, it is big changing approach and way of working to address issues and find solution together through building from bottom up and participatory process rather than applying the top down approaches that the project expected to produce better and effective results.
SOLAR FOR LOCAL SCHOOLS AND COMMUNITIES LABE-This project seeks to support extension of learning activities at home in Gulu, Amuru, Adjumani, Yumbe, Koboko and Arua districts as a remedy for the current low primary school performance, very poor children#s retention and poor learning outcomes especiallyamong the girls by provision of portable solar lamp rechargeable lighting facilities to enhance home - based learning support to children at night, mainly focusing on those that attend Universal Primary Education schools.
