Technology transfer The knowledge and systems developed will be transferred to the Government of Minas Gerais based on a capacity
building and training agenda to be defined by the partners. Even after the end of the project, the analyses will continue
to be performed normally using the computational infrastructure (both local and cloud) of CIT-UFMG, aiming at a safe
transition without interruption of systems/services
SeloVerde Selo Verde-MG" is a science-based online platform that seeks to increase transparency in critical deforestation-risk
supply chains (soy and beef) as well as other commercial relevant agricultural products encompassed by the Minas
Gerais state certification program (coffee, olive oil, fruits, vegetables, milk, honey, chicken, eggs, cotton, cachaça,
cheese, and pesticide-free products). By integrating socio-environmental data from (IBAMA, ICMbio, Ministry of
Economy, etc.) and state (SEMAD, SEAPA, IEF, etc.) datasets, land-use maps, and satellite imagery (e.g., post-2008
deforestation per property) by using big-geospatial data analyses to provide a diagnosis of each property's
environmental compliance with Brazil's forest legislation for all private properties registered in the CAR in Minas Gerais
(more than 940 thousand). The platform will be built by a team of researchers from CIT and UFMG in partnership with
technical teams from the government of Minas Gerais (Secretary of Agriculture and Secretary of Environment). Once
validated by the government, it can be used as a public and free tool to analyse (and inform) the socio-environmental
compliance of all rural properties in the state.
CAR 2.0 CAR 2.0" is a science-based system aimed at streamlining the CAR validation process by applying state-of-the-art
spatially explicit modelling algorithms, including artificial intelligence and high-resolution remote sensed data to solve
the biggest current bottleneck in the implementation of the Forest Code. These two project outputs will support
sustainable farming by providing detailed reports on the level of socio-environmental compliance of properties officially
registered in the CAR. Moreover, the system will help identify the state's import of indirect deforestation (i.e., by
purchasing illegal cattle raised in the Amazon) and tackle deforestation at property-level in the Cerrado and Atlantic
Forest biomes, two world biodiversity hotspots. With CAR 2.0 Minas Gerais government will be able to separate all compliant
rural properties from those which need field verification or detailed manual analysis to be validated. In addition, the
tool to be developed in partnership with the environmental and agricultural state agencies will allow prioritising
properties for both environmental regularisation and payments for ecosystem services programs based on climate and
Gender Equality and Social Inclusion (GESI) criteria.
Pilot tests Establishment of working groups to conduct the dry run procedures of SeloVerde-MG. The working groups may include British
company importers, agricultural suppliers from Minas Gerais (farms, slaughterhouses, cooperatives, among others),
and CIT-UFMG researchers who will utilize the Selo Verde -MG platform to conduct the controlled tests in partnership
with the British Embassy and the Government of Minas Gerais. The aggregated results and lessons learned will be
summarized in a report protecting personal information and commercial confidentiality.

Mainstreaming Biodiversity in Coastal Development and Planning for Sustainable Tourism Development To position the development of the tourism industry in Albania as a positive influence on the status of biodiversity in coastal Key Biodiversity Areas, and as pillar of sustainable livelihoods, through mainstreaming biodiversity in tourism planning and development Note: Disbursement data provided is cumulative and covers disbursement made by the project Agency. The socioeconomic and local benefits generated through the project are described in Section III of the Prodoc, sub-section on “Socio-economic and Local Benefits”, (p. 38). Beneficiaries are also included in the discussion on project stakeholders in the same section of the Prodoc, and in Annex 9 of the Prodoc, the Stakeholder Engagement Plan. The project is expected to have a minimum of 300 direct beneficiaries, which will primarily be project participants from various stakeholder organizations and institutions responsible for sustainable tourism development, and the management of natural resources along Albania’s coast, as well as private sector participants from small and medium tourism enterprises. For example, under Output 1.4 it is estimated that the project will have a minimum of 20 direct beneficiaries from the training program on biodiversity-friendly tourism policy and development. An additional 10 direct beneficiaries are anticipated in relation to the training program for environmental inspectors under Output 2.2. The project would also have 20 direct beneficiaries from the Green Tourism Investor Fair foreseen under Output 2.1. Under Output 2.3, the project would have approximately 25-30 direct beneficiaries from the project activities related to the promotion and marketing development of biodiversity-friendly tourism products and services. The project would also have more than 100 direct beneficiaries from all knowledge sharing activities under Component 3. Based on an analysis of all project activities, it was estimated that there would be a minimum of approximately 100 direct beneficiaries for each of the three project components.     Support for sustainable local livelihoods in the tourism sector (particularly under Component 2) is a key part of the project’s strategy, and critical for the general of GEBs. The tourism sector along Albania’s coast continues to grow, and demonstrating that biodiversity-friendly tourism can generate local economic benefits is necessary to ensure that the tourism sector continues to develop in a sustainable manner. This will be tracked through indicator 1 of the project Strategic Results Framework, including gender disaggregated reporting. The type and number of beneficiaries will be analyzed as part of the project’s aggregation of results data for regular reporting under the annual PIR.

GLA-PoV-Colombia Colombia is the second most biodiverse country on the planet, and has the privilege of being among the nine countries that share territory in the  Amazon: the largest rainforest in the world. The Amazon region in Colombia covers 44.3%, and 64 of the country’s 115 native indigenous peoples live there. This natural and cultural heritage is invaluable for humanity and yet it faces great pressures that require diverse protection strategies to maintain its biological and cultural connectivity.

Today, the Amazon region is facing a rapid transformation driven by the construction of legal and illegal routes and hydroelectric plants, as well as the exploitation of hydrocarbons and mining, agricultural activities and illegal economies. In the scenario of these pressures, forest loss stands out as one of the most pressing challenges. According to the Atlas 'Amazonia Bajo Presión' - “Amazon Under Pressure” 2020, deforestation in the region reached 511,787 km2 in the last twenty years,  (covering an area similar to the size of the continental territory of Spain), and 87.5% of this loss occurred outside Indigenous Territories and Natural Protected Areas of the Amazon.

The Colombian case is no less dramatic. For several years, Colombia has been part of the world ranking of countries with the greatest loss of forests, and in 2020 it ranked number six. In the midst of this breaking context, , the Colombian Amazon concentrates the greatest loss. For example, between 2000 and 2018, 66% of the country’s total deforestation occurred in this region, according to data from the Ideam Forest and Carbon Monitoring System.

Indigenous peoples and their knowledge systems have protected these vast territories for millennia, demonstrating that the most effective strategy to govern them, to protect the planet’s biodiversity and the health of ecosystems, is based on the traditional management derived from such systems. In Colombia,  the Forests for a Just Future Programme addresses the issue of deforestation -one of the country’s most serious environmental problems- and degradation, and unsustainable  management of forests and wooded landscapes, in a context of climate change, gender inequality and inequity, and threats to the protection of human rights, as well as rights related to territory and local livelihoods.

This project is mainly developed in the Colombian Amazon: in the Northwest Colombian Amazon also known as the deforestation arc, which covers the departments of Caquetá, Guaviare and south of Meta; and also the Northest Colombian Amazon, which covers the departments of Amazonas, Vaupés and Guainía. The project also includes some actions in the Andean region (Santander), and Bogotá, as an advocacy hub to take actions  with the National Government and State entities.
GLA-PoV-Gaia The Green Livelihoods Alliance (2021 - 2025) is an alliance of Gaia Amazonas, IUCN NL, Milieudefensie, NTFP-EP, SDI and Tropenbos International, with Fern and WECF as technical partners. The Green Livelihoods Alliance (GLA) aims to ensure that tropical forests and forest landscapes are sustainably and inclusively governed to mitigate and adapt to climate change, fulfil human rights and safeguard local livelihoods. In twelve countries in South America, Africa and Asia, as well as internationally, the Alliance works with Civil Society Organisations (CSOs), Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs) and social movements to: - increase the participation of IPLCs in policy and decision-making regarding land rights and forest governance - strengthen lobby and advocacy to hold governments and industries accountable for deforestation and human rights violations. A crucial prerequisite is to ensure the operational space and security of IPLC leaders, CSO activists, women’s rights and environmental and human rights defenders (EHRDs).
GLA-PoV-International-regional Our work at the regional and international level seeks to contribute to the long-term objectives of all three pathways in the Theory of Change:

A.	IPLCs sustainably govern increased areas of forest;
B.	Governments and agro-commodity, extractives, energy and infrastructure sectors no longer drive deforestation and address citizens’ concerns to protect forests and human rights; 
C.	Citizens enjoy human and women’s rights and safely participate in social movements. Key strategies that we will use towards these outcomes are collaborative lobby and advocacy with IPLCs towards international (e.g. UNFCCC, CBD, OECD, UN Human Rights Commission (UNHRC), UN special mechanisms) and regional policy making bodies (e.g European Union, ASEAN, African Union (AU), ACHPR, IACHR, PARLASUR) as well as the Dutch government, finance, agro-commodity, extractives and energy sectors and international private sector oriented forums (e.g. GIIN, UNPRI); strengthening social movements and networks of solidarity; public awareness campaigns; and joint capacity strengthening, knowledge exchange and cross-learning, monitoring and research.

PROG2017-2021_Outcome_La disponibilité de ressources humaines santé qualifiées et compétentes pour assurer des soins paramédicaux de qualité, avec une attention particulière aux personnes vulnérables (femmes, personnes en situation de handicap) , ainsi qu’une maintenance biomédicale et hospitalière adéquate, est améliorée, en adéquation avec les besoins du marché du travail au Bénin. Le programme a pour objectif de contribuer à améliorer la disponibilité de ressources humaines santé qualifiées et compétentes pour assurer des soins paramédicaux de qualité, avec une attention particulière aux personnes vulnérables (femmes, personnes en situation de handicap) , ainsi qu’une maintenance biomédicale et hospitalière adéquate, et en adéquation avec les besoins du marché du travail . Pour mener à bien cet objectif spécifique, l’APEFE interviendra à différents niveaux de la pyramide sanitaire, du niveau institutionnel au niveau opérationnel, dans le secteur éducatif ainsi que dans le secteur professionnel de la santé. Il s’agit : - Au niveau macro, de renforcer la collaboration des parties prenantes pour l’amélioration de l’adéquat formation-emploi, et de renforcer les capacités organisationnelles et techniques du Ministère de la Santé et les directions techniques concernés en vue de l’amélioration la performance de la formation continue des personnels des services infirmiers, obstétricaux et de réadaptation et de la maintenance biomédicale et hospitalière. - Au niveau meso, de renforcer les capacités organisationnelles et techniques des instituts de formation afin qu’ils proposent une offre de formation initiale de qualité et en adéquation avec les besoins du marché du travail ; - Au niveau micro, de faire bénéficier les ressources humaines en santé (infirmiers, sages-femmes, kinésithérapeutes, aides–soignants, techniciens supérieurs en maintenance biomédicale et hospitalière) d’un service de formation continue qualifiante , en adéquation avec les besoins du marché du travail, et en prenant en compte le genre et l’environnement. Les thèmes environnement, genre, digitalisation, renforcement des capacités, droits de l’homme sont abordés transversalement à la fois parce qu’ils sont considérés comme étant prioritaires par rapport au développement du Bénin et parce qu’ils se retrouvent dans la loi belge sur la coopération au développement.
