Africa Against Poverty The project broadly works in the petroleum and mining thematic areas. It specifically aims to influence the formulation of the Rights to Information Bill from a local and national level perspective, push for the development of a Minerals and Mining policy and incorporate international standards and adoption of Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) Mining Directive in national legal frameworks. It also advocates for contract disclosure, transparency of bidding processes and enforcement of contract terms; builds the capacity of communities to track and monitor revenues from extractive industries, prevent violation of rights and avoid other adverse socio -environmental impacts and initiates analytical work on cost -benefits of mining in Ghana to detect pros and cons from a civil society perspective. Also central to the Africa Against Poverty (AAP), is the effort to strengthen knowledge of non -state regulations such as the Dodd Frank Act, country -by -country reporting, etc., and ensure an integration of artisanal and small -scale mining in the national legislations.

Harnessing the Sun: Malawi's solar future - RESTRICTED FUNDS R08257 Oxfam's solar programme in Malawi has made a big impact on people's lives, especially women's lives. In particular, it has shown how energy for productive purposes can improve women's livelihoods, well being and sense of empowerment, alongside energy for lighting. This is the programme's particular forte; livelihood resilience is enhanced via solar irrigation and by using solar energy for processing agricultural products, thereby adding value, as well as using solar for small enterprises such as hairdressing, mobile phone charging etc. Maintaining the solar system itself also creates jobs via repair and maintenance.  A report of this kind should impress policy makers in Malawi to encourage use of solar and other renewable energy technologies.

OGB PA Discretionary Contribution for Oxfam South Africa The five programme pillars are aligned to Oxfam's Global Change Goals (OGG). Women's Rights and Gender Justice (OGG Program Goal 2), Economic Justice (OGG 5,6), Democracy and Governance (OGG 1) and Global Impact Saving Lives and Building Resilience (OGG3). Each area has a results Framework that has been included as part of this document and is included for review. Each of the frameworks responds to the context as described earlier in this document. Oxfam South Africa's (OZA's) programmatic approach requires a significant amount of relationship building, networking, framing and thought leadership by our Programme Leads as OZA continues to build on its strategic imperative of becoming a legitimate actor in the South African space for building a "a justice society without poverty and inequality, where and resources are shared, everyone lives in dignity." This requires a significant amount of "thinking" work to build the framing for OZA's programmatic work and "doing" work that is about building and growing OZA's network of stakeholders, working within a dynamic context, and locating OZA strategically for sustainability. As an Affiliate and Organisation, that is still new in the South African space, the work of building is critical to OZA's long term success. A key result of this has been the on boarding of 31 partners into OZA's network resulting in the scale of our work now being national. OZA has also kept an amount of this money for projects it terms Strategic Initiatives. These are projects that will contribute to OZA's overall programme development. An example of this for 2018 is a project on Women and Water. The drought is having a significant impact on 3 provinces in the country. As a result of the research completed in 2017, a key finding was the impact on women. OZA plans to grow this in 2018 to a fully -fledged project that serves as a flagship for OZA's One programme approach.

Finally, the project aims to support communities and governments develop roadmaps to decrease financial dependence on EI. The project will particularly focus on the impact of EI on women, with a particular emphasis on women impacted by artisanal small scale mining (ASM) given the high number of women in the sector and the threats (violence) and opportunities (income) they face.
