Myanmar Tourism The ambition of the project is to improve the export competitiveness of the Home Decoration sector in Indonesia. The focus of this programme will be on equipping the local business support organisations to deliver business export coaching services (BECS) based on the CBI methodology to the SMEs in the Home decoration sector. supported by the export enabling environment. In practice, this works in tandem with determining strategies for export development and positioning Indonesia on relevant markets based on market opportunities. CBI’s interventions providing BECs to selected SMEs should provide the business support organisation (BSO) with an opportunity to learn how to develop and implement BECS.

Moldova Agriculture "The main objective of this program is to support Moldovan agro-food companies in establishing a sustainable export position on international/EU markets through targeted assistance in meeting EU market requirements, delivery of knowledge of the European markets, as well as providing opportunities for entering these markets. The program specifically targets companies producing fresh fruits (apples, grapes, stone fruits), processed fruits, as well as honey producers. CBi is implementing this program together with the International Finance Cooperation. Although IFC and CBI will closely collaborate on the implementation of all programme activities foreseen under all phases of the Project, both parties agreed that each has their own tasks and responsibilities: to ensure effective implementation of the programme, IFC will leverage its presence on the ground, country and sector knowledge, as well as established stakeholder networks, and CBI will provide its worldwide expertise in the area of development and promotion of agro-food exports from developing countries. More specifically, CBI will deliver the required international expertise through export coaching, and IFC, with assistance from the Moldova Fruct Association, will ensure the local expertise and organizational support i.e the business environment interventions. For the implementation of the program, CBI and IFC, closely work together with local sector organization Moldova Fruct, who are also supported with capacity development in the program. "
IT/BPO Services The IT/BPO service programme Asia and Eastern Europe will initially focus on five countries of which two in-dept. For Armenia, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka limited information on the needs of l3SOs and commitment/interest of companies is available. For those three countries the results of the recruitment phase will depend if there is real ground to start an integrated programme. The counterparts in Albania and Macedonia have showed commitment and potential thus an integrated programme will be offered in these countries. Contributing to the importance of software exports for the development of the Macedonian economy is the countrys limited domestic market. The Albanian government and donor organisations have been investing heavily in the digital infrastructure in the past years. The country is now more competitive and ready to look beyond its own borders and to become the hub for software development in the region, which is the ambition of Albanias IT industry.

Albania and Macedonia, however are not visible as IT outsourcing destinations in the EU yet. Other constraints prohibiting exports are the limited market knowledge and soft skills of the IT companies. Furthermore, the BSOS in both countries are small and only able to offer export support to a minimum extent. In visiting Albania and Macedonia a strong cooperative attitude and commitment to promote IT exports to Europe from all levels (government, donor organisations and the sector itself) was noticeable. It became clear there is no organisation present that focuses on (1)

exports to Europe and (2) on improving the export management and marketing capabilities at individual company level.

This is where CBI could have real impact with a new IT programme, by offering opportunities for networking, improved access to EU market information, improved export marketing skills and branding Macedonia and Albania as near shore

destinations for software development. The BSOS could, because of their capacity/size, be supported to a certain extent in strategizing and upgrading their services for exports. By participation in the ECP audits and HRD modules BSO staff will obtain more knowledge on what is important in exporting to the EU.

Finally, supporting the IT industry in particular contributes to youth development and high-skilled employment provided by the sector. The number of ICT graduates in Macedonia almost doubled in the period 2003 - 2008 to 800 per year. AITA, the

Albanian sector association, is strongly involved in curriculum development for students to establish a good link between business needs and the education sector. In Albania, the IT sector does not seem to face a brain-drain, but rather a `brain-gain as Albanians moved abroad come back to work in the Albanian IT industry (source: AIDA). In supporting the IT industry CBI contributes to innovations as knowledge intensive services companies routinely play a critical role in co-producing the service solution along with their clients."
Made in Bolivia This business Case sets out the unmistaken demand for this niche product in several European

countries. This proven demand is the starting point of this programme. Bolivian wine is consideredto be an exotic product that will demand a place on the shelves of wine specialty shops and on-trade channels across different countries in Europe. The product of ` High Altitude Wines` is unique and creates an opportunity to sell the image of Bolivia, which in current times is nearly non- existent. The supply of Bolivian wines deserves a lot of attention. Despite being a relatively smalsector in size, it has a lot of potential. The quality is not always that consistent however, growth in Ha's should be planned, working conditions can be improved, institutional support should be developed and economies of scale can be improved. So far, Bolivia has not had any incentive to do this, because nearly all of its supply is sold domestically. Focussing on export markets does bring this incentive to create growth and development of this sector. The private sector that represent the wine sector in Bolivia, have come to realize this and is very much committed to take the sector to a higher level, through exports.

Three categories of value chain constraints have been determined: Supply-related bottlenecks, lack of export knowledge and skills, and lack of institutional support for export and sector development.

This programme tackles these constraints in a two-project export development programme. The

first project results in the establishment of a generic body that will provide a.o. business support

through expos-related services, and sector planning. The second project focuses on  export

coaching of the companies that are considered to be able to export within 4 years time.

Opportunities for co-financing and the inclusion of other NGOs will be explored during the

implementation phase of the programme. Although the interest of different NGOs is evident, so far this has not yet resulted in a concrete proposal for co-financing. It is expected to have other

organisations involved as soon as CBI has made a start with this programme.

The export development programme of Bolivian wine is in fact a sub-programme within an on-

going country programme of Bolivia. It is expected that in later stages sub-programmes dealing."

Alert 17 (anticipation of spike in needs) - Reducing migrants' vulnerability induced by degrading social and sanitary conditions in the neighborhood of overcrowded bus station "Ouled Ziane" camp of Casablanca Given the absence of humanitarian actors currently operating in the camps, the project will consist in mobilising stakeholders and material resources to mitigate the effects of displacement and winter, and improve the living conditions of the migrants and also vulnerable Moroccans living in the camps. The project will focus on the most urgent needs to preserve physical integrity and ensure a safer environment (protection with a focus on women and unaccompanied minors will be mainstreamed in all activities throughout the project).
Fair, Green and Global Alliance The Fair Green and Global (FGG) alliance is an alliance of six civil society organisations. Both ENDS is the lead agency, and other member organisations are: ActionAid, Clean Clothes Campaign, Milieudefensie (Friends of the Earth Netherlands), SOMO and Transnational Institute. The alliance is in a Strategic Partnership with the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The alliance aims at socially just, inclusive, and environmentally sustainable societies. It addresses governance gaps in corporate conduct, trade and investment and financial systems. Our aim of socially just, inclusive, and environmentally sustainable societies is within reach. Yet a persistent combination of socio-economic and environmental crises threatens to roll back the progress we have made. People across the globe, particularly in low- and lower-middle income countries (LLMICs), especially women, are suffering from rising inequality, food insecurity and financial instability. Their lives and livelihoods are threatened by climate change, declining biodiversity, and scarcity of resources. Human rights are being systematically violated and rights defenders are under severe threat. Governance gaps - described by former UN Special Representative on Business and Human Rights John Ruggie as the gap between “the scope and impact of economic forces and actors, and the capacity of societies to manage their adverse consequences” - are a principal cause of these social and environmental crises. People’s ability to claim respect for their human rights, engage in decision making and influence policies and practices that affect them is shrinking. Laws, policies and decision making processes increasingly favour the private sector at the expense of public interest. We, the Fair, Green and Global (FGG) Alliance, have expertise and strategies to help close these governance gaps. We believe that the solution lies in democratic, transparent, equitable and gender-sensitive economic and social structures and practices that respect our natural environment. We focus on three interlinked leverage points, or Theories of Change (ToCs) - corporate conduct, trade and investment, and the financial system - because our joint analysis indicates these as being loci where change is critical and possible in order to achieve inclusive societies in which human rights are respected and global public goods managed sustainably. Since 2009 the FGG Alliance, funded by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs as part of MFSII, has achieved notable results in these three areas, exceeding the sum of our parts. We believe that the key to achieving transformative change is to inform and mobilise people to engage with relevant decision makers in these three areas. We know that the grassroots social movements we are part of have the power to effect change. The FGG programme consists of three activities or Theories of Change: ToC 1 - Improved Corporate Conduct; ToC 2 - Improved Trade and Investment; ToC 3 - Improved Financial and Tax Systems Civil society; Governments; International institutions; Private sector actors.
