WLSA - Strengthening Civil Society Engagement and Participation in Zimbabwe The purpose of the network is to contribute to sustained well-being of women and girl children through action-oriented research in the socio-legal field and advocating for women’s rights. WLSA work incorporates action into research by questioning and challenging the law, instigating campaigns for changes in laws, policies and plans of action, educating women and girls about their rights, providing legal advice and gender sensitizing communities and leadership.
The primary problem that we seek to address is the lack of constitutional awareness and literacy among women which has led to them having a poor sense of ownership of the law leading to lack of assertiveness. While the development of the constitution was progressive, the non-alignment of the laws and the piecemeal, selective implementation of the constitution has resulted to threats to the rule of law, undermining independent commissions, the violations of human rights and the non-entrenchment of constitutionalism. In the aforementioned areas, women are disproportionately affected by poor service delivery; inadequate access to health and education, increased gender-based violence and harmful cultural practices such as early marriages due to patriarchy. Furthermore, there is lack of sustainable use of natural resources, corruption and limited participation and representation of women in key decision-making processes which continue to disempower women. The limited enjoyment of constitutional provisions has led women to apathy due to an inability to engage with policy makers in demanding improved access to their rights. The project seeks to empower women to identify issues, self-organize and approach duty bearers to demand and defend their rights.
Triple Nexus Haiti/Dominican Republic This programme fosters community driven responses, to transfer power into the hands of communities in borderland regions, building their resilience to climate change, and reducing humanitarian need (more resilient); strengthening inclusive conflict resolution mechanisms to better respond to the needs of at-risk groups (more cohesive); and works with decision makers for holistic policy approaches that address the root causes of vulnerability, fragility and conflict while simultaneously meeting humanitarian needs and strengthening resilience. Tackling these challenges in each of the four borderland regions (Burkina Faso and Mali, Dominican Republic and Haiti, Ethiopia and Kenya, Israel and the occupied Palestinian Territory), requires a joined-up approach across the humanitarian, development and peacebuilding nexus, to address climate-related security risks. The Triple Nexus approach provides communities with a holistic, localised, coordinated and effective response, leveraging the complementarities of partners’ expertise, to reinforce the mutually reinforcing dividends of their interventions. It is important to notice that a social, cultural and traditional dimension that exist between communities leaving at the bordering zone could also support to build cohesion, and support/encourage cross learning on better practices on peace building, climate adaption, sustainable development, DRR, etc. Each of the 4 regions are rapidly changing contexts, which require adaptive approaches and partners’ strategies are also tailored to the specific borderland context, while drawing from good practices and lessons learned in different regions. In this way, interventions are multisectoral and implemented through a One Christian Aid approach, with combination funds provided by Christian Aid and Christian Aid Ireland to support partners in each of the four borderlands regions.
Promoción del ejercicio de los derechos humanos de las mujeres víctimas de violencia sexual y otras VBG en Colombia Con este proyecto la Corporación Sisma Mujer se enfocará en el objetivo general de promover el acceso a la justicia de las mujeres víctimas de violencia sexual y violencias basadas en género (VBG), para favorecer el goce de sus derechos a la verdad, a la justicia, a la reparación y garantías de no repetición. Focalizado en departamentos con alta afectación del conflicto armado y las violencias contra las mujeres, han sido definidos dos objetivos específicos: OE1. Brindado acompañamiento psicojurídico a mujeres víctimas de violencia sexual, y diferentes VBG, y desarrollado un trabajo articulado con instancias de la justicia transicional. OE2. Implementada una estrategia de litigio enfocada en la reparación individual y colectiva de mujeres víctimas e impulsada la incorporación del enfoque feminista en las acciones de justicia restaurativa de la institucionalidad responsable. 
Los efectos esperados sobre el grupo objetivo son: promovido el acceso a la justicia, brindado el acompañamiento psicojurídico, facilitado el acompañamiento psicosocial colectivo e individual, promovido su acceso a medidas de reparación individual y colectiva. Asimismo, el trabajo conjunto con la institucionalidad, es clave para propiciar que desde sus ámbitos de actuación, las instituciones responsables brinden una mayor o más cualificada respuesta frente a las necesidades, dificultades y expectativas de las mujeres víctimas de violencia sexual y VBG. De esta forma, el proyecto trabajará con diferentes instituciones y realizará una producción técnica de documentos o herramientas que permitan la incorporación del enfoque feminista en sus decisiones, actuaciones o gestiones. A través de las actividades previstas en los dos objetivos se trabajará principalmente con mujeres víctimas, y en el trabajo con la institucionalidad se trabajará con funcionarias y funcionarios
Raising Awareness on the Customary Land Rights and the Land Commission Acts Green Scenery was supported by Christian Aid Ireland to implement a five-year, later six years after the outbreak of the Corona Virus 19 globally. The intervention was carried out in three districts; Bonbali, Port Loko, and Pujehun and it involved working with partners, landowners, and land-users’ groups, while interacting with stakeholders at the micro, meso, and macro-levels to bring about both attitudes and behavioral as well as policy change. The project ended with the milestones achieved at varying degrees and a major objective of the Provinces Land Act, Cap 122 repealed and replaced with two new land laws; the Customary Land Rights Act and the National Land Commission Act.
This Intervention will target the same communities that were targeted by the previous project as a way to deepen all gains as well as to prepare them for the next journey of the implementation of the new laws. The intervention will establish at least five District Multistakeholder Platforms and will facilitate the establishment of the Town/Village Area Land committees in all our operational communities. Members of the structures established will be trained so that they are able to match up to their terms of reference as enshrined in the laws.

Saving lives and Enhancing Food Security with a specific focus on IDPs and returnees through Multi-Purpose Cash. The action builds on accelerating localization through a multi-sectoral approach designed by a consortium of three national and two international organizations that champions the Charter4Change. The action targets 102,601 of the most vulnerable girls, boys, women, and men in Ayod (Jonglei) and Leer (Unity). In addition to being IPC4+, locations are selected based on the most critical needs including three criteria – returnee hotspots, prone to flooding, and/or impacted by conflict and thereby with critical immediate basic needs.
Acknowledging the cost effectiveness and efficiency of MPCT to target multi-sectoral needs coupled with dignity for affected people, the action aims to provide a life-saving holistic approach to humanitarian cash-based response where MPCT (result 1) is complemented by protection to address GBV and child protection concerns (result 2), mobile Explosive Ordnance Risk Education (EORE) to save lives and ensure a sustainable and localized approach (result 3), and DP and DRR including a crisis modifier (CM) to ensure flexible rapid response through MPCT and survivor and community led response (sclr) using Group Cash Transfers to promote community-led capacities (result 4). The specific objective of the action is to contribute to improved food security, disaster preparedness, increase general protection services and protection against explosive ordinances for vulnerable people. The action targets 60,900 with MPCT, 41.701 people with protection and EORE.
UNPBF- Bakenyezi Dukenyerere Amahoro - YELI The project has been collectively designed with Christian Aid and our 4 long-standing local CSO partners, and informed by participatory and reflective consultations with key stakeholders- women groups, community influencers and CSOs and policy makers, through a series of face-to-face consultations and workshops, which focused on the theory of change, intervention strategies, assessing feasibility, budgeting, the results framework, risk and analyzing context. CA has carefully assembled this consortium to complement each partner strengths, experience and contextual knowledge, alongside our global technical expertise of peacebuilding, conflict prevention and women, peace and security. The consortium partners are deeply embedded in their target communities, two have nation-wide coverage, working at national and regional level with strong relationships with women, youth, returnee and IDP women and women leaders. Focus Group discussions and key informant interviews (KIIs) were conducted in Ruyigi and Rutana Provinces in  May 2022 and through a serie of consultations in August 2022, with consortium partners, women’s networks, 10 women associations, 5 commune and 20 colline council representatives, 2 women administrators and 1 woman Governor to develop the proposal, seek recommendations and ensure the project reflects the expressed needs of women, particularly those at risk of being left behind, and that it builds on complementarities with other initiatives.

ZELA - Increasing the Adaptive Capacity of Smallholder Farmers in Mining Communities in Matobo and Bubi districts. This project seeks to address the challenges faced by communities due to climate change. Most small holder farmers have limited information on climate change adaptation strategies  in Bubi and Matobo districts who continue to use unsustainable livelihood practices .  It also seeks to address the lack of information on disaster risk reduction by smallholder farmers as the districts are prone to hydrological hazards such as drought and floods, adversely affecting livelihoods.  This will include capacity strengthening small - holder farmers on disaster mapping, early warning, and supporting the District Civil Protection Units to develop disaster risk management plans for communities in their districts. The communities in the Matobo district use the harvesting of Mopane worms as an alternative non-farm-based adaptation strategy. However, unsustainable harvesting of the mopane worms is threatening this alternative livelihood strategy  that communities have adopted in response to climate change. To address these challenges the project will employ the following strategies (1) Raise awareness of climate change (2) support small holder farmers identify and adopt drought resistant certified seeds (3) capacity strengthening on ecosystem based approaches to climate change and disaster reduction. ZELA will work in collaboration with the the District Civil Protection Unit, Agritex and other CSOs in the areas of operation.
