F.a: Integrated rural development project The majority of the rural population in target districts is involved in subsistence agriculture. The level of food security and awareness of improved agricultural production techniques and practices is very low. Farmers have not been able to break out of s
ubsistence farming practices (use of traditional techniques and varieties of crops), and consequently productivity is low. Because of lack of functional and viable community structures rights-holders are not able to effectively plan their own development i
nitiatives and request support from duty-bearers. The main objective of the project is to empower communities and community structures (Village Development Committees) with the knowledge and skills to take the lead in addressing the challenges in their own
 development, and promote higher level of food security of subsistence farmers and communities through development of upland and swamp agriculture (food and cash crops, poultry). Subsistence farmers are trained and supported in new commercial level agro-te
chniques and practices including environmental conservation techniques, and provided with farming inputs. Expected results:• Village Development Committees’ (VDC) are functional and responsive in addressing development issues and communities have incre
ased knowledge and awareness of issues such as peace building, HIV/AIDS, gender equality and environmental management• Food security in target communities has improved through provision of training and farming inputs• Communities perceive farming as a 
business and have started economically and enviromentally sustainable commercial farming• Partner’s poultry farm and Agricultural Demonstration Site is developed into an economically viable entity.Right-holders/ beneficiariesRural poor including the mo

F.a: Sustainable Agriculture Project for Rural Women in Liberia A large proportion of the economically active population of Liberia is engaged either directly or indirectly in small-holder subsistence agriculture, and women constitute the majority of small-holder producers and the agricultural labor force in general. A
t the same time, cultural and social organisation limit women’s access to and control over productive assets. Within the agriculture sector, poultry production still remains a challenge with approximately 95% of eggs consumed in Liberia being imported. T
he main objective of the project is to reduce poverty among rural, in particular female-headed households through the development of backyard poultry and vegetable farming. Additional objective is transformation of partner’s semi-commercial poultry farm 
into a sustainable profit-making social enteprise that integrates backyard farmers into a larger production system that generates income for beneficries and for the implementing partner to carry out rural development projects thereby reducing its dependenc
y on donor funding and thus increase its sustainability. The project will have the following expected results: • functional and independent farm/production unit created and opportunities for business expansion enhanced through provision of business devel
opment support to the implementing partner;• beneficiaries’ income earning capacities improved through backyard poultry (egg production) and vegetable farming, and formation of farmers’ cooperatives and training of participants in small business and 
management skills to properly market and manage their products• improved farming methods for the cultivation of crops (corn and soya) for feed production adopted by beneficiaries.Right-holders/beneficiaries: Rural women, in particular vulnerable women, s

F.a: Preventing Violent Extremism among Youth in Uganda The Eastern districts of Uganda and the urban centre of Kampala are cited as key areas in the growth of extremism. The strategies of radicalization and violent extremism remain a choice that terror groups use to recruit membership. All indicators point to 
a worsening situation in Uganda if the dual threat of youth discontentment and the spread of radical ideologies fail to be addressed. It is from this background that it has become imperative for actors like Finn Church Aid and its local partner UYMDF to ca
rry out a comprehensive assessment of key drivers of radicalization and violent extremism in the country as well as map out the actors and areas of intervention that can help reduce the growing radical trends. Based on the assessment, a comprehensive strat

F.a: Improving forest management in Riau through CBFM and law enforcement #Jikalahari is an umbrella of environmental non-governmental organizations founded in 2002. The mission of the organization is to work for protecting the remaining forests of Riau, and that the local communities would benefit of the forest resources. The g
oals of this joint project is to encourage policy changes, to support the participation of the civil society in stopping deforestation, to promote and to monitor the implementation of forest-related legislation, to promote participation and rights of local
 and indigenous communities in management and protection of natural resources and to promote efficient and sustainable landscape level management in peatland areas. The total project areas cover over 50 % of Sumatran peatland, which in turn equals to about
 20 % of all the peatlands in Indonesia. Also a mountaineous forest area, the Rimba corridor, is included in the project. High species biodiversity is typical for these project ecosystems. All project areas possess high levels of biodiversity and act as ma
ssive carbon sinks. They are also important for water conservation, transportation, and providing livelihoods. The area is threatened by logging, deforestation and drainage of peatlands due to pulp and oil palm plantations. Together with the Jikalahari hea
d office, the project will be carried out by four other NGOs: Mitra Insani, Elang, Hakiki and Jaringan Masyarakat Gambut Riau (JMGR), and the Riau Corruption Trial (RCT). Main methods are workshops and trainings, compiling reports and evaluations, advocacy
 and campaigning, along with monitoring implementation of the legislation. Beneficiaries of the project include 29 communities around the Riau province. Target groups include also local government, state government officials, big forest companies and Jikal
ahari member organizations and international partners. The project will contribute to reduction of the the country’s carbon emissions that are caused by deforestation, as well as facilitate forest management by communitites and promote the rights of indi
genous groups. Law enforcement is expected to prevent committing forest crimes. Local communities are also expected to become better aware of area protection and conservation. In addition, Jikalahari’s capacity as a network of campaigning and advocacy to
 save Riau’s forests will be improved. Experiences from this project can be utilized for similar struggles in other areas. http://jikalahari.or.id/#

NEFCO/Support to energy efficiency renewable energy and alternative type of energy sources in Ukraine Finland's Trust Fund NEFCO/Ukrainan energiatehokkuutta uusiutuvaa energiaa ja vaihtoehtoisia energialähteitä tukeva Suomen rahasto Finland will establish at Nordic Environment Finance Corporation (NEFCO) a bilateral Trust Fund (TF) to support energy efficiency as well as use of renewable energy and alternative types of energy sources in Ukraine. The need for TF is justified by the fac
t that Ukraine needs support to increase its energy efficiency since Ukraine's energy sector is 3-times more energy intensive compared with the OECD member states average. Ukraine faces also difficulties in making energy sector reforms and many projects of
 the international finance banks are proceeding slowly. A Memorandum of Understanding in the fields of energy efficiency renewable energy and alternative type of energy sources was signed between Finland and Ukraine in 2017. The purpose of NEFCO TF is to h
elp Ukraine to improve its energy efficiency policies and guidance. In addition new technology will be introduced. The aim is also to enhance partnerships and projects with private sector and/or international financiers. Ukraine will be assisted in creatio
n of national funding instrument for renewable energy. Main partner organization in Ukraine is State Agency on Energy Efficiency and Energy Saving (SAEE). Finnish funding for the TF is 6 million euro for 2018-21. Procurements are tied to Finnish consultant
s. Suomi perustaa Pohjoismaiden ympäristörahoitusyhtiöön (Nordic Environment Finance Corporation NEFCO) Ukrainan energiatehokkuutta sekä uusiutuvan energian  ja vaihtoehtoisten energialähteiden käyttöä tukevan kahdenvälisen rahaston. Taustalla on Uk
rainan tarve vähentää energiankulutustaan sillä Ukrainan  energiankulutus on kolme kertaa suurempaa kuin OECD-maissa keskimäärin. Ongelmia on myös Ukrainan energia-alan uudistusten ja kansainvälisten rahoituslaitosten hankkeiden etenemisessä. Suom
en ja Ukrainan välillä solmittiin v. 2017 yhteisymmärryspöytäkirja energiatehokkuusalan yhteistyön lisäämiseksi. NEFCO-rahaston tarkoituksena on auttaa Ukrainaa parantamaan energiatehokkuuteen liittyvää politiikkaa ja ohjeistusta. Lisäksi rahast
on hankkeilla edistetään uuden puhtaamman teknologian käyttöönottoa. Yksityisen sektorin ja kansainvälisten sijoittajien rahoitusta Ukrainan energia-alalle pyritään lisäämään luomalla kumppanuuksia ja yhteistyöhankkeita. Ukraina tarvitsee myö
s apua kansallisen uusiutuvaa energiankäyttöä  tukevan rahoitusinstrumentin kehittämisessä. Pääkumppani Ukrainassa on energiatehokkuudesta ja energiansäästöstä vastaava virasto (State Agency on Energy Efficiency and Energy Saving SAEE). Suomen r
ahoitus on yhteensä 6 milj. euroa v. 2018-21. Rahastosta tehtävät konsultti- ym. hankinnat sidotaan suomalaisiin toteuttajiin.
