Further, the consultant will help the WROs to learn, document, and advocate for the integration of mental health care actions in the development and women’s empowerment programs.
Rural Aids Prevention & Dev Organization My Tax my Voice Project is an initiative that will mobilize the local and indigenous community members who are the taxpayers through citizen grassroots forums to empower them with information about the devolved funds so that they can hold elected leaders, government officers and other duty holders accountable. This is aimed at ensuring proper utilization of the public devolved funds at the county level. The main objective of this project is to advance the interest of the youth and adults in the County government policies,legislations, budgets and prioritization of community projects processes and also to improve space for citizen participation. The County government act gives powers of self-governance to the people and enhance their participation in theexercise of the powers of the State and in making decisions affecting them” (Article 174c, Constitution of Kenya). However, citizen participation is quite minimal in the county government structures living the key decisions to be made by the elected leaders and other government officers. Most of the time politicians manipulate the routine “public participation” ending up only inviting their political cronies to the public participation forums; the forums are again given very short notices and far much spread to an extend that member of the communitydo not attend them. The act also compels the County governments to involve the public in development of County Integrated Development Plan (CIDP) and Annual Development Plan (ADP) which contains all the countyplans for 5 years and 1 year respectively. Despite allthe above-mentioned policies and guidelines, the citizen who are the taxpayers are not offered sufficient opportunities to participate in prioritization and identification of the projects and servicesto the citizen, this could be due to lack of information about the roles of the community members as the right holders. Migori County as a devolved unit has received more than Kshs 72billion fromthe inception of the devolved government in the year 2013todate from the national treasury. The physical infrastructure, equipment,staffing and supply of essential drugs in health facilities are still in a deplorable state, our roads not passible, ECD schools not in good shape and nonproper support for agricultural sector. This may be attributed to the fact that the citizens are not involvedin the identification, monitoring and audit of the projects and services offered to the tax payers by the County government of Migori. It is therefore the reason this project is geared to empower the citizen to have information about the devolved government unitsby enhancing citizen participation at the grassroots level.

This project will build on the strengths and lessons learned from previous and ongoing programs led by Oxfam. Specifically, the action will complement the ongoing interventions ofthe EU Support to Food Security and Resilience in Northern Nigeria# (PROACT) in Adamawa and Kebbi states in northern Nigeria. The project is benefiting over 25,000 vulnerable farming households in 80 rural communities, 70% of whom will be women. These Vulnerable households, were in the verypoor and poor categories prior to Oxfam intervention in target locations of this project, and were beginning to attain comfortable positions in terms of food security and livelihoods outcomes before the COVID 19 pandemic struck. These populations  are nowat risk of having their strengthened resilience attenuated as a result of COVID-19 pandemic. The project will also use the findings of the recent rapid care analysis conducted in Adamawa and Kebbi address gender based violence issues arising from the Covid 19 pandemic.  The power relations which places women as the subordinate gender groups within this society, leaves the women vulnerable to GBV violence, as there is a power imbalance between men and women as highlighted by the RGA will also be addressedby this Project.
CO-506141 Following the recent escalation of hostilities in Gaza, many families from the northern areas and Gaza City are displaced to the southern areas of Gaza Valley. This mass movement has resulted in overcrowding in the southern areas, where families find themselves either in shelters or hosted by others. Unfortunately, a significant number of displaced individuals lack the financial means to meettheir basic needs, including food and water in addition to very limited availability of food and water.
In response to this pressing situation, ESDC is planning to distribute vegetable baskets. The target recipients include 3.000 families who have been displaced. Each basket will contain: tomato, cucumber, orange, lemon, pepper (sweet and chilly), eggplant, cauliflower, and zucchini with a total amount of 100 NIS per basket per family.
ESDC will collaborate with the Rafah Agricultural Cooperative under this intervention.Recognizing the importance of food supply and the need to support farmers as they are actively producing crops, the cooperative approached ESDC for assistance to market the vegetables of farmers. Farmer Samir Khdeir, a trusted member of the cooperative, will facilitate the collection of crops from fellow farmers and coordinate the delivery to ESDC employee Ahmed Abu Haloub who is displaced and stays at one of the schools that we will be targeting. Ahmed, along with 8 volunteers, will then pack the vegetables and deliver them to distribution points. ESDC staff and the volunteers will supervise thewhole process of the distribution. Each HHs representative of each family will sign a receipt for the food basket, providing their ID number and full name.
All proposed vegetable items by ESDC are available and currently being produced on the farms. However, it's worth noting that some items, such as zucchini and eggplant may need cooking but all the families that were asked about it confirmed their willingness to receive such items. families are able to cook using cartons and wood for a fire.
Sida Nigeria Fair Finance 24 27 CISLAC Nigeria is rich in natural resources, but the benefits of these are not visibly reaching poor people. The lack of accountability and transparency mechanisms are mostly prevalent within the extractive industries. Furthermore, country specific issues include, amongothers, a regressive tax system, unequal wealth distribution, non-adherence to responsible working conditions (labour laws). Taxingthe digital economy, or more specifically large companies such as Google or Amazon is difficult for the revenue authority in Nigeria, because of the absence of a physical presence in the country.88 This reduces public investments in critical sectors such as education, health, agriculture, and social security. Major stakeholders include financial institutions both public and private.
Fair Finance Nigeria intends to: (1) Reduce leakages and illicit financial flows aided by FIs in the oil and gas industry through production of research and policy papers (2) Building on the research and policy papers engage with companies and key investors in the extractives sector to press them into developing stronger policies and demanding policy compliance from companies they invest in. (3) Through research and policy papers, expose digital channels through which financial transactions are lost, in light of national tax policyon digital economy. (4) Building on research and policy papers, engage with Nigerian regulatory bodies (5) Conduct training for investigative journalists and CSOs on Fair Finance and organize capacity building for communities to make their voices heard, target and hold companies and policymakers to account.
Case studies are planned on extractive industries and the digital economy. Policy assessments will be carried out, covering banks who are active both in Ghana and Nigeria.

Fair Finance Nigeria consists of: Oxfam in Nigeria, Connected Development Initiative (CODE), BudgIT, Society for Women in Taxation-SWIT, Civil Society Legislative Advocacy Centre (CISLAC), Policy Alert, Paradigm Leadership Support Initiative (PLSI), Social Development Integrated Centre (Social Action), Support for Training and Entrepreneurial Program (STEP), and the Nigeria Labour Congress.

CSWD-Access for children with autism Nowadays, it is apparent that more children are born with autism spectrum disorders, they are faced with countless difficulties in life. Nghe An is among provinces having a high percentage of children with autism and other disabilities, while most of itspopulation still live below the poverty line. According to an estimation, there are more than 21,000 disadvantaged children residing in Nghe An (accounting for 2.34%) including 12,000 children living with visual impairments, hand, foot and mouth disabilities who struggle with coutless mental issues and great physical discomfort on a daily basis; more than 115.000 children are at risks of falling to disadvantaged conditions, accounting for 13% children living in the province. Those children need further attention and support from the community and the whole society. Taking these facts into account, we want to implement this proposal in Nghe An that will greatly benefit province-born children with autism and disabilities. The project aims to evaluate the impacts of current policies and laws on children with disabilities, and particularly those with autism; provide a snapshot of how we still fall short on protecting and supporting children with disabilities, as well as identify challenges and difficulties faced by not only children with disabilities and autism themselves but also authorities who are in charge of implementing relevant laws and policies.
CRUDAN- PROACT PROJECT (CRUDAN) North Nigeria Food Security and Resilence, more broadly, this action contributes to SDG 1 and 2 in Nigeria (to end povertyin all its forms everywhere and end hunger,achieve food security and improved nutrition, and promote sustainable agriculture). Italigns with the EUs joint cooperation strategy in Nigeria that targets poverty alleviation, improved capacity of state and local governments to deliver quality of services and better coherence and coordination between the three tiers of government in respect of poverty alleviation programmes.  This action is part of what EU calls the Food Security and Sustainable Agriculture (FSSA) thematic instrument under the Global Public Goods and Challenges Programme (GPGC) and it contributes to the policy commitment through the component Supporting the poor and food insecure to react to crises and strengthen resilience. That component addresses in particular food insecurityincountries in post-crisis situations and will support vulnerable populations to becomemore resilient, thereby linking Relief Rehabilitation and Development. The global objective of PRO-ACT is to enhance resilience to food shocks, chronic and acute food insecure people in post-food crisis by improving adaptation to climate change, combatingdesertification, promoting nutrition sensitive activities and policies and encouraging sustainable and resilient small scale agricultural practices. Finally, this action specifically aligns with the Agricultural Transformation Agenda (ATA) that recognizestheneed for resilience development in smallholder farming and the National Agricultural Resilience Framework (NARF) on climate change. The NARF has articulated shortand long- term strategies to reduce food and nutrition vulnerability whilst enhancing environmental resilience and made provisions to:
-Encourage cultivation of drought tolerant crops and develop markets to support local food systems;
-Promote policiestoimprove water management;
-Promote weather index insurance schemes for farmers;
-Promotesocial safety net policies to reduce vulnerability, especially for women and children.
The action will complement but not overlap with the ongoing food security programmes in the target States/ LGAs supported by various bilateral and multilateral programmes such as EU, DfID, SIDA, UNEP, IFAD, and the World Bank in Nigeria.
