F.a: Institutionalizing social dialogue in the workplaces The project strengthens migrant workers’ knowledge about trade union rights and enhances grassroots-level local trade union networks through trainings, workshops, meetings, information sharing events, as well as material production. In addition, through 
public labor disputes migrant workers strive for effective advocacy which purpose is to ask the ACFTU to support open to collective bargaining processes and democratic elections of workers’ representatives in workplaces in Guangdong Province.Currently in
 China there is no freedom of association and right to collective bargaining and as a result, employees cannot freely choose their representatives and cannot negotiate with the employer's about terms of employment.  Civil society organizations supporting m
igrant workers are trying to meet the needs which the Communist Party’s official trade union, ACFTU refrain by providing training and coaching to the workers' representatives to enable them to defend their rights through collective bargaining.The project

F.a: Towards understanding local implications of shifting cultivation The climate change policy as well as the general policy of environmental protection and management of natural resources increasingly treats deforestation consequent to shifting cultivation as an environmental challenge. In view of vast bauxite reserves lyi
ng underneath the shifting cultivation areas, the aluminium cartel having mining interest in eastern India has been lobbying for problematizing shifting cultivation to create opinion in favour of displacing the cultivators. Indigenous people practising shi
fting cultivation have been defending their ancestral domain against mining interests.In this backdrop, the study will bring together the work of many institutions and scholars in various disciplines on shifting cultivation. It will document the techniques
 of shifting cultivation and its impacts on the environment apart from detailing the social, institutional and cultural aspects of the communities depending for their subsistence on this form of cultivation. The inquiry will look at state’s attempts to e
radicate/phase out the practice through pressure/ incentives, peoples resistance and why shifting cultivation continues even today. The study will map the changing trend in shifting cultivation in study areas and would examine the impact of attempts to rep
lace shifting cultivation with sedentary agriculture.The proposed study will highlight the experiences of shifting cultivation with a focus on positive and negative impacts in terms of environment, economy and health aspects. It will be based on review of 
studies done so far and its synthesis, primary observations from field and perceptions of communities engaged in the practice, understanding of researchers, officials and social workers will complement the study.  Society for Promotion of Wastelands Develo
pment (SPWD) is a national NGO set up in 1982. SPWD's mission is "to prevent, arrest and reverse degradation of life support systems, particularly land and water, so as to expand livelihood opportunities in a sustainable and equitable manner through people

F.a: Community Sensitization The project includes training for human rights activists, radio programs, community drama sessions, and debates for  local leaders, traditional leaders and stakeholders, as well as TLC’s core funding. Uganda's government has contributed little to the sit
uation of human rights, and has even civil actively limited political rights. Journalists have been harassed, and have been accused for the demagogy. Radios are under special attention of the Government, because radio reaches 90 % of the population. Due to
  the threats the media self- censors widely their broadcasts. However, in Uganda , there are dozens of independent medias. The project's target area in Toro Kingdom, the freedom of expression is limited all the time. The project aims to strengthen the TLC
 and the capacity of human rights activists , to inform the public about human rights, and strengthen the TLC’s networking. The expected impacts of a forum for discussion about human rights , a functioning network of human rights activists and their incr
eased capacity, increased awareness and discussion of human rights in the community, as well as reduction of impunity . As direct beneficiaries of the project are 300 human rights activists to be trained and more than 2 000 community members participating 
in community events, well as activists participating 50 radio programs. In addition, the project provides practical support and legal advice to victims of human rights violations (at least 300 cases).Twerwaneho Listeners Club was grounded in a radio progra
m made by local human rights activists in 2006. Program -makers and listeners founded and registered Twerwaneho Listeners Club in 2008. In the core TLC's activities is the sensitizaton of human rights of the local population, in particular of the freedom o
f expression, the freedom of association and the right to access to information.
Voluntary Support to The Forest Carbon Partnership Facility - FCPF KV.RAH.LAIT/Tuki Maailmanpankin metsähiilirahaston valmiusrahastolle The Forest Carbon Partnership Facility (FCPF) assists developing countries in their efforts to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation by  enabling developing countries to participate in a system of positive incentives for REDD+. The FCP
F has two funding mechanisms ? the Readiness Fund and the Carbon Fund. The FCPF Readiness Fund  supports developing countries in preparing themselves to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation to enhance national management arrangements 
and to develop reference emission levels and to design measurement. In addition the FCPF activities contribute to biodiversity conservation and enhancement of livelihoods of local communities . The current capitalization of the Readiness Fund is $358 milli
on (10/2014). The Carbon Fund is the FCPF?s instrument to pilot results-based  payments for  emission reductions from REDD+ programs.An independent external evaluation of the FCPF was undertaken in 2011. According to the assessment the FCPF has made signif
icant progress in building in-country capacity and in disseminating knowledge on REDD+ readiness. Less progress has been made on piloting a performance-based system of payments enhancing livelihoods and conserving biodiversity. Finland has supported the FC
PF with a total of 15 million euros between 2008-2012. In 2014 Finland's support is three million euros. Maailmanpankin metsähiilirahasto (Forest Carbon Partnership Facility FCPF) tukee kehitysmaita hiilidioksidipäästöjen vähentämisessä kehittämällä kehitysmaiden valmiuksia ja osaamista sekä toteuttamalla REDD+ -mekanismin mahdollistamaa päästök
auppaa. FCPF koostuu kahdesta rahastosta: valmiusrahastosta ja hiilirahastosta.  FCPF:n valmiusrahaston (Readiness Fund) varoilla muun muassa tuetaan kehitysmaiden valmiuksia vähentää metsäkadon aiheuttamia päästöjä hallinnon kehittamistä ja mets
ävarojen kartoittamista sekä mallinnetaan tarvittavat ennustukset hiilipäästöjen tulevasta kehityksestä. Lisäksi valmiusrahaston toiminnalla tuetaan biodiversiteetin vaalintaa ja paikallisten yhteisöjen elinolojen edistämistä. ODA-kelpoisen valmi
usrahastonpääoma on 358 milj. US dollaria (tilanne 10/2014). Hiilirahaston tavoitteena on puolestaan tuottaa tietoa ja malleja REDD+ -mekanismin rahoittamiseksi. FCPF:n toiminnasta on tehty itsenäinen arviointi vuonna 2011. Arvioinnin mukaan rahasto on 
merkittävällä tavalla edistänyt kehitysmaiden valmiuksia ja tuottanut tietoa REDD+ -valmiuksista. Eteneminen on ollut hitaampaa hiilen sidonnan ilmastovaikutuksista maksettavien suoritusperustaisten korvausten sekä toimeentulon edistämisen ja luonnon
 monimuotoisuuteen vaalimisen osalta. Suomi on rahoittanut valmiusrahastoa vuosina 2008?2012 yhteensä 15 miljoonalla eurolla. Vuonna 2014 Suomen tuki FCPF:lle on kolme miljoonaa euroa.

F.a: Monitoring public policies regarding collective territories in Baixo Amazonas The project focuses on more systematic advocacy in order for the demands of the social movements of Baixo Amazonas to be materialised. The social movement consists of organizations representing the inhabitants of extractive reserves in the area, which dema
nd public policies to guarantee the conservation of the forests and the improvement of the quality of life of people living in them. First, the priority demands of the reserves are systematized, after which relevant municipal, state and federal authorities
 are targeted with advocacy work. These include the ministries of environment, agriculture, health and education. The challenge of the advocacy work so far has been the lack of access to the federal level actors due to resource constraints. In the end, the
 decisions are made on federal level, whereas the state level authorities lack decision-making power as well as resources. ELO was founded in 1993 as an NGO providing technical assistance to the social movements in Baixo Amazonas. It supports movements aim
ing at protecting the forests and improving the quality of life of people living in them, in for instance strategic planning, project implementation, financial management and communications. These social movements include indigenous peoples and gatherers. 
ELO currently coordinates a network of social movements in Baixo Amazonas. The network consists of rural workers' trade unions and associations of gatherer reserve inhabitants. It has drafted the Positive Demands Agenda aimed at the national, state and loc
al level governments.
