Down to Zero Peru Movement against Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children (CSEC) The Down to Zero (DtZ) program includes preventative and protective measures that focus on actual child victims and children at risk of commercial sexual exploitation. 

Commercial sexual exploitation of children (CSEC) is a fundamental violation of children's rights. It consists of child prostitution, child pornography, and child trafficking for sexual purposes. The DtZ program  is carried out in four countries in Latin America. Peru���s current population is over 31 million, of which 38% is younger than 18 years. 76% of Peruvians live in the urban zone while 31% live in the Lima capital. Since the mid-twentieth century there have been an ongoing migration from rural to urban zones or to rural zones with more access to market opportunities.
 
Economic growth and poverty:

Due to significant economic growth since the 90s, the estimated GDP per capita has increased from $1,500 to $6,000. This has strengthened the purchasing power of families and, therefore, caused a progressive decrease in poverty. However, poverty levels are still high: 23.9% of the population in Peru faces poverty, of which 4.7% lives in extreme poverty. The poor are concentrated in the rural zones, especially in the Andean area where 62.6% of children live in poverty. Half of the children under 15 years living in rural areas are poor; 35.9% of the poor have Quechua, Aymara or an Amazonian mother language. Poverty affects the development of children and causes other associated problems such as malnutrition, school abandoning, teenage pregnancy or violation of human rights.
 
Assertiveness:

In the DtZ program we aim at teaching at-risk children and adolescents and other victims to speak out, advocate, and seek protection against sexual exploitation. Personal development plans are an important tool in the program. We motivate children and adolescents to get organized in youth let organizations that access specialized services that protect them, help them rehabilitate, reintegrate, and reduce their vulnerability to sexual exploitation.
 
Government and stakeholders:

We make private sector stakeholders in the tourism, mining, cement, sugar and the transportation sector aware of their role in fighting child abuse and exploitation, and make sure they amend their practices and/or business models based on ethical principles and values to actively protect children. Last but not least, the government, at all levels and in all fields, is urged to take action.
She Sells Shea She Sells Shea (Partenariat Technique Agroforestry FDOVBF26) In Burkina Faso and Mali, 80% of women living in rural areas are involved in agriculture and in the Shea value chain.  These women face many issues mainly because of their lack of access to land, financial services, technical capacities, market access and quality inputs. With this project, ICCO-Cooperation along with the Government of the Netherlands, want to help develop the Shea value chain in Mali and Burkina, and also help improve the means of revenue of women living  in rural areas. In May 2015, the Government of the Netherlands through the Netherlands Enterprise Agency approved a multi-stakeholder project (FDOV) for a period of 3 years (2015-2018). This project will be implemented in Mali and Burkina Faso by ICCO Cooperation in partnership with OLVEA Burkina Faso (OLVEA BF), the National Center for Forest Seeds of Burkina Faso (CNSF), the Karité Project and the Cooperative of Producers of Shea butter from Zantiebougou (COPROKAZAN). This project is of paramount importance for COPROKAZAN, but also, for all the women involved in the Shea value chain in Burkina Faso and in Mali.

Initiatives like this will help develop the Shea value chain, which will in turn develop women's activities and provide them with more opportunities and therefore more ways to improve their income.
ADRA - SHO Indonesia After the major earthquake and tsunami that struck Central Sulawesi, the ADRA team carried out a rapid needs assessment. Beneficiaries were identified in Donggala and Souh Palu. As a result of the assessment, ADRA is carrying out the following activities: provision of shelter kits, and the installment of toilet and water systems, assisting 1550 households. A major earthquake (Mag. 7.4 RS) hit Central Sulawesi on September 28, and was followed by a Tsunami at Donggala and Palu (Central Sulawesi Province) and Manuju (West Sulawesi). Liquefaction happened in Petobo and South Palu, Biromaru (Sigi district) and Sidera village (Sigi district). with black mud rising up to five meters and reportedly burying hundreds of people alive, as well as destroying thousands of houses.
Nearly two weeks after the earthquake, the number of people confirmed to have died is still rising and many victims are still unaccounted for. As of October 2nd, an estimated 66.000 houses had been damaged and almost 62.000 people were displaced and staying in over 100 sites.
ADRA Indonesia identified a number of gaps in the humanitarian assistance: during the first week most people did not get food or water assistance; electricity and internet connections were not functioning and it was still impossible to provide medical assistance, evacuation, food (especially for kids), emergency shelters and clean water for sanitation.
The ADRA team carried out a rapid need assessment, supported by trained ADRA volunteers in Palu and by church leaders. Beneficiaries have been identified in Donggala and South Palu (Petobo village). The following activities will be carried out:
ADRA will provide shelter kits (4x6 tarpaulin, rope 30m, tools and nails) for 1.550 households.
ADRA will install 50 toilet and water systems in IDPs camps, serving 1.550 households.
Beeswax Project Diversifying women's source of income The beeswax program came as an addendum to the PPP Shea project. Since the shea production varies every year (with one year out of three being good), so does the income of the rural women working in the shea value chain. In order to give the women an alternative income, USAID, in partnership with ICCO Cooperation, thought it would be a good idea to finance a project that would not only help the women diversify their income, but also have a positive impact on the environment. The beeswax program came as an addendum to the Public Private Partnership (PPP) Shea project. Since the shea production varies every year (with one year out of three being good), so does the income of the rural women working in the shea value chain. In order to give the women an alternative income, USAID thought it would be a good idea to finance a project that would not only help the women diversify their income, but also have a positive impact on the environment. ICCO Cooperation is implementing this innovative project with key partners such as ICRAF (Worlds Agroforestry Centre) and Olvea BF.
 
The overall objective of the beeswax program are threefold: 
1-	To strengthen the resiliency of 3,000 women engaged in Shea nut harvesting and marketing in the Feed the Future Zones of Influence of Mali by increasing and diversifying their sources of income through market driven production and marketing of beeswax; 
2-	Improve the apiculture value-chain to enable organic sourcing of beeswax and honey, and; 
3-	Increase the knowledge of the role and impact of bees on the pollination and yield of Shea trees.

The beeswax program will have one of the most direct impacts to economic empowerment as the program will give an alternative revenue source to 4 cooperative unions representing 60 cooperatives. These cooperatives main revenue source is primarily Shea, but with the addition of honey and beeswax, the cooperatives will have a value added product that is non-perishable and a product that is sold between March and May, which gives cooperatives another revenue stream during the year. 

Zones of intervention:  This initiative takes place in the southern regions of Mali, namely (the region of Sgou, the region of Sikasso, the region of Kayes, and the region of Koulikoro)
Partners:  ICCO, ICRAF (the Worlds Agroforestry Centre), Olvea BF (private French company), cooperatives, BDS providers. 

Expected Results:
1-	3000 women are trained in modern apiculture (honey and beeswax processing)
2-	The cooperatives will be able to generate  4,500,000 FCFA ($8064) from selling wax to Olvea. This money comes as an addition to their normal activities.
3-	The cooperatives will be able to generate 9,964,206 FCFA ($17,857) from selling honey. This money comes as an addition to their normal activities.
4-	3000 women will have diversified income and add a different value chain to their daily activities.

Opportunities for Nepalese Coffee Farmers Expanding Opportunities for Nepalese Coffee Farmers and Traders HAMRO COFFEE is a two year project, supported by the EU, and implemented by ICCO in six coffee growing districts of Nepal. The project aims to increase income of small holders through an improved market driven specialty coffee sector by focusing on quality and quantity of coffee cherries produced and upgrading primary processing to ensure quality of green beans, leading in the long term to increased demand of unique Nepalese specialty coffee in the domestic and international markets. HAMRO COFFEE project is part of the larger Support for Trade and Economic Capacity Building: Trade and Private Sector Development Program launched by EU and the Government of Nepal in September 2014.  Jointly envisioned by ICCO Cooperation, CEAPRED and NCPA, the two year HAMRO COFFEE project aims to increase income of small holders through an improved market driven specialty coffee sector. The consortium aimed to achieve this goal by realizing outcomes and activities that expand across production, processing, marketing and institutional strengthening.

The action was primarily focused on  enhancing the quality and quantity of coffee cherries produced, and upgrading primary processing to ensure quality of green beans that would in the long term lead to   increased demand of unique Nepalese specialty coffee in the domestic and international niche markets. Further, the project worked to remove access to barriers from 'Bean to Cup' and strengthen linkages across the coffee-value chain. 

Key results:
- 6000 farmers benefited from 14 Primary Processing Centers upgrade
- 28 Extension Service Providers(ESPs) provided services to 73 farmer groups and cooperatives
- 79550 coffee saplings planted under the supervision of ESPs
- 3300 farmers trained on Orchard Management and Improved Farming practices
- 300 farmers supported with agro-tools
- 30% of harvest time saved through the use of Harvest bag
- 4 kg (approx) of additional coffee cherry yield per plant
Leadership and capacity development program (MESOLIDER School) This project supports  the first implementation year of MESOLIDER, a leadership school for indigenous leaders, developed by organizations of the Mesoamerican Alliance of People and Forests from Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama.  Activities include capacity-building programs, workshops, regional exchanges in Central America, a systematization of lessons learned and outreach/community activities at local, national, regional and international level. In Mesoamerica, extractive industries and processes continue to threaten the rights of vulnerable groups including indigenous and forest dependent people. Clearing of forest for cattle ranching, monoculture plantations, unsustainable logging, hydro-electric projects, and mining are the main causes of deforestation and forest degradation in Mesoamerica. Centralized governmental management models have proved insufficient to stop those threats.  Autonomy of territorial management is being compromised by lack of political support, rights to land and forest are not secure, and there are shortages or financial and technical support for sustainable management of forests by indigenous and forest peoples. 

The governments and large producers are, in most cases, responsible for forest destruction in disregard of rights of indigenous and forest communities. Community leaders and activists are often threatened, jailed or even assassinated.  As a counter point, Indigenous and community based land management in Mesoamerica have proved effective for natural resource conservation, climate change mitigation, and poverty alleviation.  

This adverse context has forced indigenous peoples and local communities to find ways to exercise tenure rights as guardians of the Mesoamerican forests. Through their traditional authorities and community organizations, Indigenous Peoples have embarked on various fronts of action and struggle for defense of their territories and rights, which entail enormous challenges and require new capacities to manage risks and some opportunities of the context described. On the other hand, generational change and community cohesion also constitute internal challenges for community organizations and indigenous authorities so measures that support bringing youth and women to forest governance, and develop local capacities are key for long term sustainability of communities, territories and livelihoods.

Renew Thinking and Practices of Rural Development, 2016-2017 IPDRS, 2016-2017 With this initiative, ICCO Cooperation and the Institute for Rural Development in South America (IPDRS) propose an innovative, proactive and collaborative response as opposed to the negative view on rural development. The project proposes a change of approach that seeks to show rural life and highlight the value of the field and its men and women in Bolivia and South America. The countries of South America in general stand out for the production and export of raw materials, whether mineral, forestry, agricultural or hydrocarbon, which exerts enormous pressure on the land and the governments that must administer it. This is in parallel with major changes in the living and working conditions of rural populations, such as high human mobility, the extension and permanence of educational coverage, technological inclusion and services. At the same time, the aging of communities, the strategies of multi-economic activity, the feminization of agricultural work, the accentuation of violence in the demands for land and territory, the expansion of agricultural frontiers with agriculture for export, the advance of the use of agrochemicals, the concentration of markets and the decrease in the diversity of the diet, among other problems are linked to the rural area.

However, despite all these phenomena, accelerated and expansive, in general terms, the actions of NGOs, academia, news agendas, grassroots organizations and social and political leaders in the region hold and express a conservative view of the rural worlds; conservative because they go to trials that were valid at the time (twentieth century), but today have become prejudices; it is worth saying judgments that do not correspond to concrete contemporary realities, which are based on stereotypes instead of subjects and above all, based on outdated information, from a position that can only account for the fatality and not the vitality of the field.

ICCO and IPDRS propose a change of approach from a criterion that prioritizes the value of the field and its men and women, in a context in which humanity faces an uncontrollable accumulation of wealth and natural assets, including land, and substantial changes in the nature that shelters it.

In this scenario, the IPDRS is inserted, conceiving itself as a complementary facilitation institution to the available institutional structures, a second-floor space that allows articulating local and national initiatives and knowledge from a South American dimension, working in coordination with peasant men and women, indigenous, leaders, technicians, professionals, politicians, activists. The renewal of thought at the South American level can only be achieved in this way and that is why the IPDRS was born as a regional instance and with these characteristics in its intervention.

DRA Nigeria JR 7 - Christian Aid 2021 DRA - Nigeria Joint Response 2021 (JR7) The Nigeria Joint Response 2021 supports lifesaving activities and alleviates suffering of Host Communities and Internally Displaced Persons in Borno State, Nigeria. This will be done through integrated and coordinated humanitarian responses, focusing on the most vulnerable people and enhance access to humanitarian assistance and protection services through principled humanitarian action. Nigeria has been confronted with multiple security challenges and has been suffering greatly since the Boko Haram insurgency began in 2009. The violence has displaced more than two million people, an estimated 1.8 million of whom are currently internally displaced. The conflict between Boko Haram and military forces in the northeast of Nigeria has escalated to directly affect some 15 million people. More than 20,000 people have been killed and an estimated 4,000 women and girls have been abducted since the conflict began eleven years ago. 

Since 2015, ICCO has provided Humanitarian Aid in northeast Nigeria, in Borno State, together with 5 Dutch NGOs as part of the Dutch Relief Alliance (DRA). This program is funded by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs and promotes food security and prevents and treats malnutrition, improved access to safe drinking water and sanitation and hygiene and offers protection and psychosocial support to women and children. ICCO delivers its Humanitarian Response together with its (local) partners Christian Aid, Jeridoo Foundation (JDF) and Justice Development Peace & Health Programme (JDPH).
