Strengthening Youth Friendly Health Services Through Community-Based Interventions in Rural India Young people in the age group 10-24 years constitute nearly one third of the Indian population. However they remain marginalized in terms of access to health services information on sexual and reproductive health and power to make informed decisions regard
ing their own wellbeing. This translates into poor health and development indicators.This project has the overall objective of improving young people's access to health information and services in the selected Indian districts (Gazipur and Varanasi rural d
istricts in the state of Uttar Pradesh and Bangalore rural district in the state of Karnataka). The project aims to support the state and district governments in establishing health services for adolescents. The project also aims to support the local commu
nities in promoting young people's health with emphasis on gender equity and empowerment of marginalized youth.It is recognized that cultural and socio-economic barriers can prevent young people from seeking health services and that special youth friendly 
approaches can assist in overcoming these. Special Youth Clinics have been recently established in the intervention areas as the result of previous collaboration between PSR-Finland and MAMTA-HIMC. However the current services have a limited ability to rea
ch out to the village level necessitating the development of new approaches.The activities of the proposed project comprise (1) provision of health information through schools and dedicated Youth Information Centers in the rural communities (2) training of
 outreach workers teachers and peer educators to address young people's health concerns (3) raising awareness of village district and state level stakeholders and (4) impact evaluation monitoring and documentation.The services will be established within th
e existing public health infrastructure. Community-based activities aim to strengthen the capacity of current actors such as Panchyati Raj Institutions Village Health and Sanitation Committees and schools. The approach is in line with Indian national polic
ies such as the Adolescent Reproductive and Sexual Health Strategy.The main beneficiaries of the intervention are the young people whose health is critical to the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals 2 4 5 and 6. Other beneficiaries of the proje
ct are teachers the other community members and functionaries of the public health system whose capacity to work with young people will be improved.
Darimu Integrated Rural Development Project (DIRP) phase two Poverty is one of the major factors limiting the realization of the Millennium Development Goals (MDG) in Ethiopia.

esigned to support this effort. The overall goal of the project is to assist the national in reduction of poverty and mitigating its impact the project is targeting to contribute to the improve the development problems in the area:Not enough clean water bu
t water born diseases. Education is not available for all and not for girls especially. No access to clinics hospitals and government offices during the rainy season. Not enough income generating possibilities for women and unemployed youth. Sexual absuse 
of the girls living in the rental houses while studing in Dupha. Overall objectives: Poverty reduction Gender equalization Access to clean water Education for all.The direct beneficiaries are the inhabitants of Darimu woreda 24 956 (12 458 male and 12 498 
female) but living in the different kebeles than beneficiaries in the first phase of the project. The main project activities are: Meti-Dheko kebele gets the healt post. Kussaye school children are getting school buildings and toilets. 180 women get traini

wells construction 25 water commitees trained.Gender has been a mainstreaming theme while planning the second phase. When the schools are found at short distances and there are separate toilets for girls and boys it helps the girls especially in their teen
s to come to school. The problem of young female students living in rental houses and being abused is reduces by building them proper dormitories to live together. Having protected springs reduces the working load of women reduces waterborne diseases reduc
es the money spent on medicine and visits to the doctor. Bridges help women to have shorter ways to carry their products to the markets. Schoolchildren have safer way to school. Heath post with facilities reduces MDG/maternity and child mortality. Saving a
nd Credit schemes and small ruminant credits are income generating for women and unemployed youth with training how to save money and how to raise animals.

STRENGTHENING THE CAPACITY AND  SUSTAINABILITY OF ARAP MOI CHILDREN'S HOME The project partners  are faced with constantly growing challenges of increasing demand for child  protection of poor children changing operating environment of the Arap Moi Children's Home (AMCH) need to strengthen the skills and capacity of the AMCH acce
lerating price of quality education and the capacity of the AMCH being set up for a much smaller number of sponsored children than presently. The overall objective of the project is to enhance poverty reduction and human rights by broadening access to equa
l opportunities for orphaned and destitute children and youth in the Nakuru area. The changes in Kenyan legislation on child protection stipulating that a relative's family is always preferable to an institution for an orphaned child have set new challenge
s to the sponsorship activities of Nakurun lapset ry and AMCH. Whereas all the sponsored children previously stayed at the AMCH now roughly one third of them stays at the home and two thirds in a network of guardian families that the AMCH provides for in t
erms of education and well-being. Two of the three cross-cutting objectives of the Finnish development policy promotion of gender equality and reducing inequalities are in the heart of the sponsorship activity and the project as they focus on strengthening
 equal opportunities for education and well-being for girls and boys. The key challenges for the project based on the Feasibility Study and the Problem Analysis are the capacity and skill requirements for the AMCH staff a school structure for the sponsored
 children which provides better quality education and reduced costs and improvement of working methods of the partners.As its immediate objective the project aims at strengthening the capacity and longer-term sustainability of the existing AMCH activities 
in serving  in a sustainable and effective way  the children and youth enrolled in the sponsorship programme.The immediate objective is addressed through four result areas as follows: 1) promotion of equal education opportunities to the children and youth 
enrolled in the sponsorship programme 2) empowering the guardians to strengthen their capacity to take care of the well-being of the children and youth in the sponsorship programme 3) strengthening the individual and institutional capacities of the sponsor
ship partners to offer quality and sustainability of activities and 4) improving the physical environment of the AMCH.

Community strategies for climate-resilient livelihoods Livelihoods of rural communities in Zambia depend mainly on agriculture. Reliance on natural resources makes them very vulnerable to the effects of climate change such as shortened rain season extreme temperatures and more frequent droughts and floods. Alt
hough many farmers have observed climate variations over the past years they have a very limited knowledge of what is causing the changes and more importantly how to cope with them. This project addresses these issues by supporting the devel. of climate ch
ange adaptation strategies in four communities in Luanshya Monze and Mumbwa districts that are already affected by the changes.The project's overall objective is to build community resilience to the impacts of global warming through increased awareness and
 enhanced adaptive capacity in the project communities. The main beneficiaries 250 households (mainly small-scale farmers) involve 50/50 women and men and include young and disabled people. The project introduces sustainable innovations and climate-smart p
ractices that will be identified in cooperation with the communities as the most suitable in each context (e.g. agroforestry organic gardening and small livestock production). These activities support the diversification of income generation and a communit
y-driven response to climate change. The project also strengthens the advocacy skills of the community members in order to promote and safeguard their right to food rural employment safe environment and climate justice. The aim is that drawing on the lesso
ns learnt during the project the communities can contribute to evidence-based advocacy at the national level.The project promotes gender equality by empowering women to respond to the impacts of climate change and by involving them in related decision-maki
ng in the communities. Inequality will be reduced by including young and disabled people in local Project Management Committees and capacity building activities. This enables them to raise their views and needs as regards climate change adaptation and to p
articipate effectively in climate-sustainable economic activities. The project's main focus is on climate sustainability through resilient livelihoods. It also explores communities? options for preparing for and recovering from climate-related shocks.This 
is a new project but it utilises the experiences gained and best practices developed during GLM Zambia's previous sustainable development projects in rural communities.
